do a back tuck

Its actually really easy. The problem most people have is just fear. If you try it on a trampoline or have someone spot you, its easier.

I’ve been cheering/tumbling for 4ish years and I can do a standing/running backhandspring and a runnning round off backhandspring tuck. But I can’t do a standing back tuck. Thats my goal. Any tips?

In the spirit of discardia
I’m removing this goal from my cluttered mind. After achieving my target weight, I’ll pick it back up when I can train with a pro.

I have my back handspring, my round-off back handspring, and I can do a back tuck on the trampoline. Now all I have to do is get it on the floor, without a spotter!

omg!!
i have been working on a tuck for 2 months now. its my first year as a cheerleader and im determined to get this down. i taught myself a backhandspring and everything else i know, but since i’ve done that it seems like everyone expects me to have a tuck like anyday now. i dont want to disapoint anyone so i have been working real hard. i can do a round-off tuck just not standing.
its alot harder.
but… im not going to give up i will keep working at it until i have it.
hopefully that will be before competion.

I’ve worked so hard on this. I have try outs on the 13th and 14th of April and I want to throw my standing tuck so bad. I have thrown it a couple of times by myself but I can’t stick the landing and I have no confidence about it. I only need a finger spot buts its sooooo mental!

I can do a back tuck in the pool.There easy.I practised,so now I can do one standing by the side of a pool.I stand on the edge of the pool and then I jumped and I landed in the pool.Awesome!I saw people doing it on a tramp so I thought:Maybe I could do it!Is it harder on the ground?

I used to get really mad because i would see other people do this but i couldn’t do this i know how to do a back-hand spring and running tuck but not standing. One night i saw this video showing how to do one and the next day i went outside and i tried it and i did it but i never give up!

does it still count if i broke my toe? I did it flat on the grass.

I’m a cheerleader and have been working on my back tuck for what seems like forever. But it really probably has only been two years off and on. Now I am getting serious about doing it. I can do them alone on a trampoline, and I’ve gotten close to doing them alone on the floor but not quite yet. I think I have a problem with getting my feet underneath me. I can do a back handspring back tuck, but not a standing tuck. Gah. I need a miracle :)
