description Roundoff Back Handspring Full Overview
Roundoff Back Handspring Full is a gymnastics tumbling pass made from a roundoff, a back handspring, and a backward salto with a full twist. The roundoff changes the athlete's direction and creates backward momentum, while the back handspring links the entry to the salto. The final skill includes one complete 360-degree rotation around the body's longitudinal axis before landing. It is performed on floor and requires strong takeoff, air awareness, and landing control.
