The back side rodeo is a more advanced trick and you shouldn't attempt it unless you feel comfortable upside down. when you drop in to the jump come in with a little less speed than normal because you will pop a lot more off the lip. You start by doing a toe side turn at the base of the jump, as you are going up the jump switch your weight from your toes to your heels. When you get to the lip drop your back shoulder just a little bit and that will start your flipping rotation. With your head look backwards to spot your landing to keep your back flip from stalling out upside down, don't "freak out" upside down just stay calm and let the flip come all the way around . Tuck your knees up and go into a melon grab and this will make you spin your 540. Open up as you spot you landing and just stomp the landing to finish off your trick.
so in short
1. Toe side turn as you near the jump
2. Heel side turn to transfer you weight
3. Drop back shoulder and grab melon.
4. Don't freak out
5. Spot your landing
6. Stomp the landing
7. Do it again!
