Backhandsprings
Okay heres the deal. i can do a front handspring and a round off and a back bend. and on the trampoline i can also do in addition to that a front tuck and front flip. i cant do a back handspring but i can do a back bend. does anyone have any advice on how to do this without going to a class? p.s. i'm also going to get gymnastics mats and the trampoline has a net around it. i am 14

doing the back handspring on the trampoline is a bad idea. cause then youll get use to doing it with extra bounce, and when you do it on the ground, you wont go high enough and youll fall on your face. so have a friend that knows how to do one, and has been doing it for awhile, spot you. maybe have two friends?.. but make sure at elast one fot hem knows how to spot. you need to bulid up your arms. so try holding handstands for as long as possible on a wall..
the things you need to actually learn how to do a backhandspring right, is a correct back walk over.. to do that, you have one leg out front and go back, flip over. it helps build up your arms, and the better you get at that, the faster you can go over, and that will help with the speed for a back handspring. hope i helped! and please be safe..

to practice getting used to going backwards, try jumping high in the air, landing on your back, then flipping backwards to land on your feet again. its like doing a back tuck but with touching the ground. after you're comfortable with this, you should ask a friend taking gymnastics or someone with gymnastics history and know-how to spot you while you practice doing back handsprings. if you're trying it on the ground, practice doing it (with your spotter) on a 'cheese mat'. (i'm not sure of the official name of it, but its the one that's a triangular prism and you lay it on the ground). start at the highest point and go down to the bottom.

A front flip and a front tuck are the same exact thing.
Practice jumping back onto your hands.
I'd suggest having a spotter to help you make it over from there.
They are very hard to do without a class.
Do it on the tranpoline.

try working on your backbends a little faster and you will eventually get the spead and the tust of yourself and maybe get someone to help spot you when your trying your backbend and try to flip over right after you do your backbend if you arent able to flip over and if so then just go a little faster on back walk overs.
hope that helped.
