double flip
Two aerial revolutions
A double flip is an acrobatic maneuver involving two complete rotations of the body in the air before landing.
In gymnastics, diving, and skateboarding, it's a benchmark of skill: She nailed the double flip on her final tumbling pass.
The term sometimes describes any two-part reversal—a policy flip followed by another flip back.
