  • the part that im scared of is the jumping backwards! im afraid im going to kill myself! but if i can get to the handstand with out falling then i don't think that i would be scared anymore, cause thats the easy part, going down to your feet from the handstand(: . another problem is i dont have a mat, spotter, or gym to do this at:/

  • i would break my neck..last time i tried a handstand, i lost balance..the only thing i heard was a strange noise that my bones made and then seeing little stars EVERYWHERE lol

  • Oh My Gosh this is so easy on the trampoline! Why am I scared to do it on the ground?!?! Please help me!!

  • Back handsprings are fun! I do it at tumbling and my instructors help me on the mats and don't be afraid :) its really fun!

  • @NessieBlack09 Ezy back handsprings easier than backflip
