Ruling: ILLEGAL

This skill is illegal for high school teams. It has been illegal for well over 30 years. It is only allowed for college teams and All Star beginning at Level 7.

The rule explanation is as follows: The first rule under inversions is “Unless allowed under the rules in this section, a top person must not be in an inverted position.”  There are no rules that state that a free standing basket toss back flip is legal; therefore, they are illegal.
