    This helped me so much. I've been a gymnast for so long and I thought my backhand spring was fine until I watched this video. All of my tumbling passes start with a handspring and you can see how a powerful handspring leads to a powerful tumbling pass. I also found that this works with front handsprings too

  • @KrystalKing1
    @KrystalKing1 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much! First day training today & I actually got my back handspring by myself without sitting into it! Your tips really helped! I got my arms to my ears quicker & jumped back more! I also managed to get my round-off back handspring too! So thank you ever so much! :)

      Have you tried using a really thick mat or mattress? Or even a bed? Once you get it on there you can move onto thinner mats with spot and eventually on your own on floor😊

  • @RandomlyCrafty

    I love coach meggin videos. I just learned my standing backhandspring the other day and I have had my round off backhandspring for a while. The problem is that I undercut it and then I have bent legs so I hope your distance and stretching backwards will help. Thanks so much and please make more videos!!!
