I got a taste of back flying, today, on the net too. I feel so invincible belly flying as a Level 1, but back flying is definitely a lot different and harder than I thought it would be. I did 15 minutes of belly flying today and did 4 minutes as an introduction to back flying. I probably could've gotten off the net, but chose not to. Just focusing on getting comfortable with turns and backwards and forwards. My instructor said I did very well and my mistakes are very common.
I wish my coach had thought of standing on my feet at the door. Trying to learn backfly now. And trying to learn to fly upper and lower body at the same time sucks. Might see if i can talk the coach into this next time.
Good luck! Back flying was super tough for me (and apparently most people). I have some other tunnel videos on the channel. Once it 'clicked' I found it much easier to make substantial progress.
I just had my first taste of back fly (on net) today. It's soooo much different than belly flying. This has given me hope! Good work!
You got this!
