First off, you'll need a running start. A lot of gymnasts use a running start that lasts about 10 seconds; don't do this, as it's pointless. Start with a couple of steps, hop forward and place your feet in front of your body and punch the ground at an angle. In gymnastics this term is considered as blocking, and it's the most efficient way to reach your highest vertical leap possible.

2Your feet are close together, ahead of your body now... Jump at an ANGLE. In physics, it's known fact that launching yourself at an angle maintains your momentum gained from a running start; thus, you'll jump a lot higher.
In the air: ninja technique1The most common mistake with people attempting to front tuck is that they spin way too early and barely jump. With blocking, the jumping part is fixed, but the spin may still prove as a problem.2While you're jumping in the air, be sure that you wait until you reach the PEAK of your jump. This is THE most important part of the trick.3When you reach your peak, bring your knees to your chest and tuck as small as possible. The smaller you tuck, the faster you will rotate.4The reason for reaching the peak of your jump before tucking is because of your center of gravity. When you start to tuck, you rotate around your center of gravity and you don't go up any further. So, reach your PEAK, THEN TUCK.
Landing1Now that you've tucked, release your legs as soon as you feel your head returning to it's starting position.
