I Need Help With My Back Handspring

[Erika]

Im scared too do my back handspring on the floor by myself. I can do it on the end of the tumble trak by myself, I can do it with a hard mat off the end of the tumble track by myself, I can do it on a "scushie mat" with a hard mat on it by my self and I can almost do it on a cheese mat by myself. HELP!!:(:help:

It can/will be scary at first but what I used to say to myself is just think you're spots there or if it makes you more comfortable just make them stand next to you and if you really need the spot they will come in and spot you and do you have a deadline to get this by? Cause it helped me get my ROBHBT cause I knew I had to get it by August and I got it in June so yeah!! I hope this helped!!!

To be honest I think you may want to get a some more spots on the floor! But if you really feel comfortable and really think you can do it than here is some tips! Start on the spring floor (or if you only have hard floor that's what you may have to use) sit with your chest up and jump up as high as you can! What I do is I jump up with my arms in a touchdown and then go back! Squeeze your body as if you were in a handstand when you get in the middle! DON'T LET YOU FEET GET BEHIND YOU! It is harder to snap down from that! Then with a big snap down you have finished you bh! Remember not to bend you arms or legs and don't be scared to do it if you know you can do it by your self! Good luck!:)

Get it on cheese mat then take 1 step down each time you hit till you get on the floor. If the cheese mat is too soft put a panel mat on top. Good luck :)
