In-Depth Backside 900 Tutorial

Learn how to throw a backside 900 round kick.

Many trickers get stuck trying to simply combine a 360 spin and a round kick when it is not that straightforward.

If you watch a backside 900, the upper body twists first, and the kicking leg pumps over the non-kicking leg similar to a cheat 720. Then, once the upper body finishes the 360 spin, the legs unwind into a perfect hip position to throw a roundhouse kick.

The key is that you are spinning around your non-kicking leg rather than your center. This is why backside 900 displaces you sideways.
