ever done a back bend? standing on the floor and then leaning back till your hands touch the ground? after you get good at that.  try a back walkover.  you know, its the same thing as a back bend except you bring you legs over you head so your standing up.  after that, do a back walkover with a little jump in the middle until you have a back handspring.  wants that coverd.  try and do a back hand spring with only one hand.  then, do it with no hands.  yes, its very hard.  i've only acomplished the back bend and am working on the back walkover. but with a little more practice, i might get better.

Street trick tips: Beginner\n\n\n\n\nOllie: For a good solid ollie you want to place your back foot on the tail and your front foot right in the middle of the board. Now bend your knees and pop the tail to the ground hard and slide your front foot up to the nose of the board. This should start taking you off the ground so suck your knees up to your chest like your sitting down in mid air. Get ready for the landing by bending down to absorb the shock.\n\n\nManual: For a manual you want to place your front foot on the front bolts and your back foot on the tail of the board. Now shift your weight to your back foot while balancing in the middle of your board to stay in the manual position.\n   \n\nNose manual: Start out in regular manual position just with your front foot on the nose and your back foot on the back truck bolts. Now shift your weight to your front foot and lean a little bit backwards. Now balance out for a good nose manual.\n\n\n5-0 grind: Be clean with ollies and manuals. Now roll next to the object you plan on grinding with a good amount of speed and pop an ollie. Land on the back truck and shift your weight to your back foot and lean forward some. Keep balancing so you can get a pretty long grind. At the end of the grind pop an ollie off depending on the type of grinding object. Land and roll away.\n\n\nPop shuv-it: Okay get into the ollie position except put you back foot on the upper side of the tail and your front right off the lower side. Now pop down the tail and sweep your front foot forwards and your back foot backwards. The board should start doing a 180` turn so while it’s moving jump above the board to give it room to spin. After it’s done spinning catch it and roll away. \n\n\nNollie: For a nollie place your front foot on the nose and your back foot in the middle of the board. Now pop the nose down and slide your back foot up to the tail. Raise your knees while in the air and land.\n\nFrontside 180`: Get in the ollie position just have it so your front foot toes are hanging off the side of the board. Now pop and ollie and twist your hips so you’re starting to turn to the left if you’re regular footed, if you’re goofy footed to the right. Practice landing 90`s until you start landing full 180`s.\n\n\nBackside 180`: Get into the ollie position just that your front foot’s heel is hanging of the edge of the board. Now ollie and twist your hips in the other direction so your turning in the opposite direction of a frontside 180`.\n\n                                          Street trick tips: Beginner advanced\n\n\n\nPop shuv-it nose manual: Be clean with pop shuv-its, nose manuals and ollies. Now get into the pop shuv-it position and be ready for a nose manual. Shuv a shuv-it and once it’s starting to come around you want to have your feet in the nose manual position while in mid air. Note: You will only have a split second while in the air so get this down fast. Now land balanced in a nose manual and roll away.\n\n\n\nKickflip: Place your back foot on the mid side of the tail and your front foot off to the side with your heel hanging off the edge. Now pop an ollie and flick your front foot off the side of the nose making it flip. Raise your knees to your chest to stay over the board and land with your feet over the bolts. Be sure to flick off the board hard to get the rotation and raise your knees to your chest. The best place to practice kickflips is on carpet because you have more control over the board.

You need help on how to do back-bend kick overs? OK. I know that these take along time, I took longer on these than I did things like back handsprings and back tucks! Back bend kick overs are one of the most important things to know in gymnastics.\nMake sure you have a"spotter" to arch your back correctly and so you don't fall.\nGet in your back bend.\nStart to rock a little bit, that warms up your muscles. \nPush off the ground with the foot you AREN'T kicking over, have your spotter support the leg and help push it over.\nYou need strong arms and back to be able to do a back bend kick over, not so much with the legs. \nGood luck.

I recommend doing this in a gym class, with professionals, or at least around a lot of people so you don't get hurt or if you do you are supervised and receive help.\nPractice on an incline mat. When you feel you are falling, its time to jump and jump hard! Keep your arms straight and strong and push off. Keep arms by your head at all times! \nArch a Little, but if you over arch it is a BIG mess.\nBend your knees slightly, arch a little bit, and push you shoulders open as much as you can. Then using your stomach, back, and arm muscles, snap your body back to a hollow position, pushing off your hands, and land on your feet on the floor in front of the board/mat. \nPut it all together you should be able to do a back handspring.\n\nGood luck!

This is a more difficult move and I find that when I twist if I tuck my head to my shoulder (whichever way Im turning) and dont move it, it works really good. This keeps ur head from sticking out which can cause a sloppy full. Also u might work on doing full twists on a trampoline to help get the motions down. And pretty much if u know how to twist and u can do a high layout u will be able to throw ur full twist. Good luck with it!

jump really high and just lean back... its that easy... now if you want to do it and land on your feet, you should probably get a trainer instead of asking a bunch of nobodys on yahoo answers

Learn to roll comfortably, learn to ollie. once u are confidant with the balance THEN learn kickfliups.\n\nsimilar motion to an ollie , back foot should be toey on the kick, not flat. to pop the back foot think of how your hand reacts when u touch a hot surface and you only very breifly touch it before you pull back. same when you pop . don't jump off the ground.\n\ndraw 2 lines passing diagonaly through your front deck bolts. your front foot should be placed with your heel hanging off more than for an ollie.\n\nonce you have popped the tail wait a very split second and slide your front foot in the direction of one of the lines i suggested to draw. follow the one that points towards the front kick and your heelside.\nthe other one can be used for heelflips later.\nREMEMBER to keep your shoulders in lines with your kicks and dont turn when u flip the board. \nconcentrate on keeping the board and your body (shoulders) parralel with each other and the full rotation of the flip will come later.\n\ndon't turn your body towards the front kick and catch the board with your back foot. common mistake.\n\nhover above that board and wait till you get that full kickflip. LOTS OF PRACTICE. BUT WORTH EVERY SECOND.\n\ncatch you board on the deck bolts and be stoked that you just learned your kickies propperly.

Cartwheels, one of the many building blocks in gymnastics!\nSplits are one of the best stretches you can do for cartwheels!\n\nHere are my tips on how to do cartwheels:\nStart in a lunge.\n(With whatever hand you write with or you prefer, but lets use the right hand) Reach forward with that arm, kick up with the opposite leg (which would be left in this case). Other hand should follow right after that, quickly, touching the ground, and then your right leg should come up too. You should be in a straddle handstand. Then, land the same way you came, your legs will be falling back into place, only on the opposite side of where you started. Probably sounds complicated but once you do the steps all together it won't seem like that and it moves very quickly. Think hand, hand, foot, foot. You can use tape on the ground to guide you.\n\nGood luck!

Go to google and type in how to do an ollie. I know you have to have back foot on tail and front almost midway, push down on your back foot, shift the weight back to your body and... I have no idea. Every time I try I can't

The way I spot it is that I am on the gymnast's left side.  I put my right arm parallel to the floor at about the same height as my shoulder, and my left arm wait to catch the gymnast's back as he/she flips.  The right arm is used to support the stomach/front side, and also to give the gymnast an idea of how high to set, or to be, before flipping.  As the gymnast flips, your arms will cross.  Your left hand will catch the gymnast's back, and also help control the rotation.  Feel free to email me at tumbling_brat_1_06@yahoo.com if you need anything else!

Hey girl i got your back.  \nOK i know how to do this cuz im in the humble high school kit kats and we are "walking it out" to that song ok. Well the person above me is right, you move your legs, but you also move your hips and put a little hand motions in there you dont want to look dull with you just moving the lower part of your body, get krunk get creative girl. You dont have to follow how everyone does it you make it your own. Okay like say your left leg is moving left you. Move your right leg the same way.  and the right moving right. move the left leg with it. But dont pick your feet off the ground like on releve:which in ballet terms means to pick your heels off of the ground. and just keep practicing you will get use to it. But in that part where he says "now hit the dance floor" get your hands above your head and slap them on the floor in front off you. and when she says "and you your back low" you put your left and right hand on your right leg bending down sort of and you left leg straight. you know get your back low. and i am tried of typing so if you want to know more of still dont get it. Just tell me girl email me. remeber i got your back. :-)

That happens to many people, it happened to me, but once I got over my fears and just went with it, it stopped and I knew what I was doing, finally. I had a weird landing too,  and my round off was crooked, it took me longer to get this trick then it did for back tucks and layouts!\n\nIt's the back handspring that's the problem. Here are some tips to help with that, once you have your back handspring, and a straight good round off, you are going to have a great round-off back handspring.\n\nPractice on an incline mat. When you feel you are falling, its time to jump and jump hard! Keep your arms straight and strong and push off. Keep arms by your head at all times! \nArch a Little, but if you over arch it is a BIG mess.\nBend your knees slightly, arch a little bit, and push you shoulders open as much as you can. Then using your stomach, back, and arm muscles, snap your body back to a hollow position, pushing off your hands, and land on your feet on the floor in front of the board/mat. \nPut it all together you should be able to do a back handspring.\n\nTo get strong arms (a must for back handsprings) then lift a 2 to 3 lb weight a few times a week you will see improvement. \n\nGOOD LUCK and have fun in cheerleading!
