I just learned a back-handspring but I keep under cutting. How can I learn how to stop under-cutting. (I don't take gymnastics lessons or anything so I can't ask a trainer or anything). Thx =]

You really should get into classes if you can, or at least use a trained spotter.
Lie down with your hands over your head and have your spotter mark out tape lines at your feet, belly button, and hands. I like to use red for the two ends and yellow for the middle, so that it really stands out. Stand on the feet line, and when you jump back (with the spotter holding you!) watch your hands and look for that belly button tape. Plant your hands on that middle tape for the turn-over and block, then push off to land on the hands tape.
Good luck and stay safe!

You need to stretch it out, for a backhand spring don't go up
you need to go back. You go up for back tucks not back hand springs.
One way you could practice is jumping onto your bed or something
soft, and go back as far as you can, dont turn or anything, just practice
going back not up. Believe me I have been there done that.
Email me if you need help on anything else:)

i've got difficulty-free people merely like that wherein I easily have tried to help. yet they did no longer prefer to get extra valuable or they stated they did yet they did no longer make any considerable steps to realize this. yet i actually do beleive that seeing somebody is a stable thank you to restoration your self. it is so lots extra valuable then merely sitting there and stuff. in case you relaize you have a challenge which it sounds like she does, act upon it. it is a actual challenge and that i assume you may desire to style of merely go "ok, so i'm reducing myself and it is undesirable. i be conscious of that it is turning out to be a actual challenge for me. Soo.........What next?" you won't be able to stress every person to do something they do no longer prefer to. And it is problematic while the mothers and fathers do no longer act on it, like they are meant to. They shouldn't merely sit down and watch and sweetness. it is tremendously out of your palms Cali. yet once you sense that something undesirable will ensue in case you do no longer step in then attempt talking to her lower back. Or artwork along with her mothers and fathers to aim and get her some help. regardless of if she likes it or no longer. All of you be conscious of she desires it. So i desire this helped you!
