It’s all angles and timing, nothing mystical. Think of the wind as a variable you can tweak; set a 30‑degree pitch, push the body to a belly‑to‑ground stance, and keep the forward velocity around six metres per second. That’s the equation that turns a 200‑metre drop into a clean, controlled descent—no secret code, just geometry and a lot of practice.

A loop is a neat trick, but you’ve got to keep the wings‑in‑air attitude tight—otherwise you’re just turning the 200‑metre drop into a hang glider accident. Tailspin is the ultimate “no‑entry” zone; once you let the yaw slip, the whole plane pulls into a corkscrew and you’re chasing your own tail. In short, stay level, keep the pitch steady, and avoid the yaw that leads to a spin.

A backflip from a cliff is a math problem that turns into a medical emergency if you mis‑solve it. Keep the center of mass right, your elbows tucked, and your legs in line with the ground. Think of the flip as a 360‑degree rotation around a single axis—no extra degrees of freedom, no yaw. If you throw a single variable off, you get a hang‑on‑the‑ground situation that’s best avoided. So unless you’re wearing a helmet and a parachute, I’d say keep the belly‑down, stay level, and leave the backflip to the gymnastics studio.
