This one was requested quite a bit, so I decided to tackle it this week.

I know this isn't the random/test animation subforum but I'll give a little criticism on the flip anyways, it's just a small thing that you could easly fix, dw.

At 0:07 he was changing direction without any smoothing. Besides that, it's perfect.

 
Ontopic: Great tutorial.

Ah yes. I am aware of that, but this was done more or less "on the fly" as I recorded the tutorial (and, as I said in the video, it was my first attempt and I hadn't practiced it beforehand. Lul), so a little roughness is to be expected. The main point is to illustrate the base concept, and maybe at a later time revisit with more "advanced" tips.

I appreciate the criticism, though!

@AnxiousCynic Also I think your character should have bent a little more, because if this was real life, my bones would crack and I would be in hospital.

Well who said he didn't crack his bones and go to the hospital!? Sometimes you-a do da flip, and you-a miss-a da landing!
