Tumbling

A back handspring is the first "flip" a cheerleader works on in tumbling. Tumbling is a huge part of a cheer leading routine, and it is a good thing to have when trying out for a team. There are many different skills a cheerleader can have. There is a back handspring, a back tuck, a layout, a full, and many more. Accomplishing new skills takes a lot of time and hard work.

This is a diagram of what a back handspring is and how you should be when doing one.
