David's been dialing in flips for years. For example [VIDEO]... And his how-to video (with a little humor) [VIDEO]. To quote skate blogger "the bertrand" here: >When watching skate videos, it is important to keep things in perspective. David Gravette can straight up do a standing backflip, while drunk, after a 4-hour skate session, on 2 hours of sleep. Keep that in mind when you try to learn gymnast/stuntperson trick
