backwalkerovers
Haven't we all have issues with backwalkovers at one point in time...I know i have. i had them down great then one day some dumb thought about falling got into my head and i wouldnt do them on anything higher than a low beam. What I do to make sure I don't go too fast or too slow is this:
1. Start in a tight position w/ just my big toe on the beam~resting lightly
2. When i go over i spot the end of the beam right away
3. stay tight
4. finish with my chest up!
I hope your backwalkover problem gets fixed soon! Good luck!
