okay so i know there are alot of forums about backhandsprings, but i looked through alot and this is alittle different. well i have my backhandspring -ive been throwing it for 3 years- and its not good. i need some advice! whenever i do it with a spot (barely even a spot, someone just holding their hand on my back) its great! then i do it on my own and my arms are all bent and my head almost hits the floor... every time. it really bothers me and i know that if i want to advance my tumbling skills i have to fix this problem because i want to be on level 3 next year. yet whenever i do it on the tumbling track its fine and i can do multiple handsprings as well as tucks. Any ideas/advice/tips ???? its greatly appreciated!! Also, my legs are always crazy so any tips on things to maybe strengthen or conditioning to solve the problem, thanks!
