Help With Front Tuck

[wutsummer]

Mk, I have cheerleading tryouts for competition seasoson and i also have tryouts at the end of the school year. I trying to step up my tumbling game so i decided to try my accomplish my fron tuck. I use my mattress and while i was in the air, i landed on my tail bone. How can i land properly and on my feet?

Can you get into a cheerleading gym and take a tumbling class? It's really not a good idea to teach yourself new skills without proper coaching and/or equipment.

I agree 100% with @retiredl5cheer, you should try to go to a class so that you are taught the proper technique for this skill.
In the meantime though, think about your first move being vertical rather than going into the punch front (same as you would for a standing back tuck). You need to give yourself enough height to be able to complete the rotation and land.
