I have this strange fear where I can't twist a flip out of a round off or round off back handspring. I have no problem twisting out of front tumbling for some odd reason. Once I set my mind freaks out and then I become scared to twist. I've had some pretty scary falls because if this. Any tips?
 
Can you twist on a trampoline?
 
Make sure you set good and wait till the end of the flip before you start twisting. Some people twist fulls right off the takeoff instead of setting and letting the layout rise first..wait till you see the ground and then just do a half at the very end. After doing this and getting used to it your body will start the twist a little sooner giving you time for a full.
