How-to: Dwarven Backflip
Does anyone here have a surefire method of performing a dwarven backflip?
If you don't know what I mean, allow me to explain: Dwarven males have a racial ability of doing a barrel roll when jumping with forward momentum. This is a commonly held misnomer, as a barrel roll would be rolling horizontally, not vertically. It's a somersault. ANYWAY: If you perform a jump and move backward at the right time, you will do the rolling animation, but move backwards a little bit: this is a Dwarven Backflip, and I swear the timing on performing this extraordinary feat is stricter than what most fighting games require in their inputs. I've exhausted my stamina bar more than a few times trying to accomplish this. I once beheld a dwarf displaying a strange backflip method on a med-break once in Karnors, where he would run forward, and suddenly reverse his momentum alongside a leap. He swore he was doing backflips, but I didn't see it on my end. He happened to make an all-time hi-score for consecutive backflips in this manner, ostensibly. If you haven't seen the dwarven parkour video, please be inspired at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFXUYl2ljqI Do any of you guys know how to perform these things consistently? I usually press spacebar and try to hit my "move back" key after a bit, and I end up doing nothing but crouching.

Correctly displaying other players behaviour on your client is kinda screwy here. It was only fairly recently that the ability to see other players jumping was added.
It is a lot to ask for the correct display of retrograde summersaults. | ||

I can't show them off! I need to learn how to backflip consistently. What Jimjam wrote makes a lot of sense though, everyone is a bit chunky on p99.

The way I got it to work is, you hit jump and then like a split second later hold back (s). It's all in the timing of when you start holding back as the jump animation plays. Even once you've got it it'll take a good bit of practice to consistently do it. If you try it and instead of a backflip your character stays ducking I feel like you're holding back just a bit too early.

You must earn it as a dwarf. If you want it, you'll eventually get it.

(Technically the video was there before, but it was just a link: now it uses the wiki's Youtube template so you can watch it in the page.)
