Hi everyone! So everyday i dread gymnastics for one reason, beam. I love every other event but beam. I'm a level 7/8 and have had a backhandspring for about a year and a half.. but they are still very inconsistant and each one is always scary. I'm not getting less afraid of them even though i...

My daughter recently moved up to level 7. She has been having trouble with her backhandspring on beam. She consistantly gets her hands and front foot on the beam, but her back foot goes off to the side on just about every one. How does she get her back foot on the beam?

Yesterday after practice my daughter said that the coaches were asking the girls to do their ROBH and BH with their hands turned in slightly (for the the RO part and the BH part). My daughter is finding this difficult since she never really did them that way before. She just moved up from...

Yesterday I while doing a backhandspring, I jammed one of my arms into the floor, and it started hurting. It was fine, though; I just iced it and I tried to go on bars, our next rotation, but as soon as I hit the extended part of my glide kip, it hurt like crazy, so my coach told me to stretch...

Hi everyone! Hehehe! Well does anyone have any tips for round off back handspring back tuck? Ya, like the backtuck part is creepy to me, LOL! So I'm fine when I have spotting but it's still a little bit scary. Any help is great thanx!

So last night at gym my coach dislocated her arm and she wanted us to try roundoff back handspring. (Roundoff on the cheese/wedge back handspring on crash mat). I had never even done a backhandspring without the hill (though my coaches thought I was ready to try) and I got it the first time I...

How do u do a roundoff backhandspring? Without hurting yourself? When i go for my roundoff, on floor, i hurt my elbow last time, because i didnt stretch tall to go in the BH. lots of pressure to elbow, my legs are bent, and i am trying to throw my BH. OUCH! any tips???? or drills? Already know...

Can anyone give me some tips on doing a backhandspring? I can get them down an incline, and on a tumbling track with spot. Thnx.:floor:

I started learning my backhandspring for beam recently and I am hoping to get it for competition this next year but I am having some problems. My main problem is that instead of jumping back into the handspring I am jumping up too much and therefore undercutting it. I have been working it mostly...

On backhandsprings, should the hands be facing inward (fingers pointing together) or backward? I heard from another coach that it's better for them to point inward to prevent elbow hyperextensions -- is that true? The only time I've ever had my hands pointed inward was on a...

just curious... is a backhandspring back layout series allowed? (lvl 8 beam)
