That is very cool. Standing front flip is way harder than backflip.

Yes the floor does help tremendously.
"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.

No the floor doesn't help with standing jumps. It helps a lot when you bounce.

Hence it helps with standing jumps as well.

No (at least not significant)
