k, i made this guide a while ago.. but ill post it up again... its a backhandsping guide for those how need a little help..

Back HandSpring Guide .... .... i suck in making guides, hope it helps

Practice these on grass! or something alike...

1. Hold your hands infront of you
2. Swing 'um down, so your arms are behind you
3. lean back like your gonna sit on a chair
4. tip back and jump while you swing your arms as hard as you can, up and back!
5. remeber strait arms til when you land on your hands
6. and your leggs will follow and, hopefully you'll land on your feet

Tips:
1. Strait Arms!
2. Strait Legs! Dont V Shape them. Hold them together!
3. If your handsprings are getting wierd (like they start looking like cartwheels) its probobly beacuse your to scared, so start doing them on grass again.
4. Remeber everything! that the guide tells you
5. You should take a break if your wrists start hurting, if you do them a while

Hope it helps

Post up comments and Suggestions..

im scared of jumping back into a handspring. not of landing on my head and breaking my neck like most people, im scared of breaking my wrists. i tried starting with a backflip first. the person who spotted me let me land on my head. that bastard!!!

you should practice them on a trampoline first, then you can on over to grass like i did, when you get them good on grass, you can go over to floor.

yeah uh, its all about balls. i was in gymnastics for awhile and i never learned one there. i learned it on my own. and now i do them all the time. but little sister has been in gymnastics for a few years but it took her forever to try one cuz she saw her friend break her wrist trying one like, 3 yrs ago. now she only does them at gymnastics. moral of the story?? only the 1st couple times are scary then it's just about perfecting it. just do it. you'll be glad you did. its fun. i know exactly how you feel. good luck. im out.

on the 7th. stepyou should add that your have to push your legs so that u get more momentum to get up again for thoughs that don't get enough momentum to finish it. it's juss like doing a foreward hand spring.

I actually got back handsprings first time I tried them on a hard surface (Tile in the forum of my high school.) and it was because I was showing stuff I could do to the local group of breakers. They asked if I could do back handspring, and I just did it like that. I have no idea why I tried it, but hey, I did it and it wasn't so bad.

thats good man! They're easy if you just try...

And i also got them first on "floor" buy showing off... Some shit nice girls asked if someone in the room could do backhandsprings, and im like "yeah!" and im standing there first time on hard surface, and thinking.. shit, what the hell... And just did it.

Get someone to hold you.. (like get a a guy/girl to help you. like, he can hold his hands behind your back to help push you around), if you know what i mean. this helps you on backflips to..

THESE R ACTUALLY VERY EASY THE TRICK IS U CANT BE A PUSSY

dayum chucky...don't be a pussy, lol.
Anyways, I tried tha tip, still need some working.
I can do blackflips and yeah it does look like cartwheel(sideflip).
I did blackflips ever since elementary it was a good start, but I kinda gave up then.

I can still do it, only somehow it kills my risk, let's say after 5 flips in a row.

mine land weird its like i go backwards,and my wrist collapseand i land on my chest and my legs are like all fucked up ya know
