Rotating an object around 2 axis at the same time

Hey. So I have this problem where I want to rotate a player around pitch and yaw at the same time, but when I do so, it kind of glitches. What i want to do is that I want a player to be able to do flips while twisting at the same time. I have spent hours trying to figure out different ways of doing so, but nothing seems to work.

Here is my code that glitches when i press two buttons at the same time:

public class Rotating_Done : MonoBehaviour {

 float angle = 180f;
 Vector3 axis = Vector3.up;
 [SerializeField]
 float speed = 1000f;
 [SerializeField]
 bool readyForNewTwist;

 [SerializeField]
 float tuckSpeed;

 IEnumerator currenteRotationCoroutine;

 public Transform rotateY;

 void Start()

 {
     readyForNewTwist = true;
 }

 void Update()
 {

     if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.E)){
         transform.Rotate(transform.right, tuckSpeed *0.1f * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
     }

     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)){

         if(readyForNewTwist){

             currenteRotationCoroutine = Rotate(angle, axis, speed);
             StartCoroutine(currenteRotationCoroutine);
         }


         


     }
 }

 IEnumerator Rotate(float angle, Vector3 axis, float speed){

     //Rotates the player 180 degrees.

     Quaternion dest = Quaternion.AngleAxis (angle, axis) * rotateY.rotation;

     while(rotateY.rotation != dest){

         rotateY.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards(rotateY.rotation, dest, speed * Time.deltaTime);
         readyForNewTwist = false;
         yield return null;

     }

     if(rotateY.rotation == dest){
         readyForNewTwist = true;
     }

 }

Are you using 2 transforms for your 2 different rotational axis? I see transform and rotateY... is rotateY a child object of transform? If so, have you tried using rotateY.localRotation instead of rotateY.rotation?
