Well, this topic is almost a year now, but as i ended here looking for some HandStand tips many people may too, so its a good topic, well i've been trying to handstand for some weeks now, and i think i got it pretty good now, i can maintain my balance for more than 10 sec's, and walk 7 or 8 steps now, the main problems to an Handstander are: Fear of falling forward on the concrete, lack of strenght in the abdominals and adjacent muscles and lack of strenght on you fingers, but you can eliminate thos problems very fast with this routine:
Jog for 10mins then try to handstand for the long possible, walk if needed what we want here is to get power to the abdominal and adjacent muscles, continue to run for 200M then do it again until you are dead tired! do it on the bank room, do it on the street when nobody is looking, do it with your girlfriend on top, the key is repetition, k wish you all luck see ya

The only way I can hold a handstand for really long is if I walk but I want to be able to hold it.




Just a bboy standing in my bboy stance...

its very easy but u need it for other moves like 1990s and skysrapers and even l kicks
i used a wall to do push ups near upside down and it helped me o.o plus it builds shoulder strenght.

Anyways just keep practicing.

use mainly your hands to control yourself. if you are leaning forward push on your finger tips and if you are leaning back push on your palms. the rest is all just preference

I know this topic is kinda old, but I just want to ask how do you fall with minimal injury if you mess up or something...
