Set a ramp up about 100 to 200 feet ahead of you. Finding a makeshift ramp in the dirt is something you will need for your trick. Most dirt bike stunts require a ramp, so ride on one until you get used to it.

Pull your handlebars up for a back flip. If you want to do a front flip, you have to push your handlebars forward.

5
Control your handlebars. Practice being in control of your handlebars until you have that down. Most stunts on dirt bikes require you to know exactly how much pull or push to give your handlebars at any given time. You will want to practice the forward and backward flips on a soft surface if possible until you get it down.

Bend your knees. When landing any of the stunts, bend your knees before your dirt bike hits the ground. This will help you to absorb the impact and prevent injuries.

Practice. Even professionals struggle to learn stunts the first time. Once you feel comfortable performing the stunt, keep practicing until you have perfected it.
