Go to a gym and learn from someone who knows how to. Make sure you can do a proper back tuck first... so you don't freak out.

Like Steve said, a gym is one of the best places to learn any kind of flip.

You could probably find a gymnast or someone who can do the flips. They would probably be happy to help you.

if your really scared... what i did was just ran at the wall and jumped off rediculously crooked, and then gradually went over straighter and straighter, until i was actually doing the move, it worked quite nicely for my situation.
