Gymnastics and Tumbling help!!?

Question

where can i get wrist gaurds to protect my wrists from breaking when i do backhandsprings? my wrists are shaking so bad. my tumbling coach makes me do 220 backhandsprings in one hour. today was my first day and i have a perfect backhandspring and soon im gonna do round off backs. please tell me where i can get something to keep my wrists in place!

Answer 1

I have really weak wrists and i got tiger paws. they helped me allot! well worth the money!

Answer 2

If you are doing that many springs then of course your wrists are gonna hurt...

To tell you the truth, i wouldn't reccomend getting any guards or braces.  Instead what you need to do is strengthen your wrists.  Do wrist curls with soup cans... i know it sounds kinda stupid but if you start wearing wrist gaurds, your wrists will never get better

Answer 3

either get tiger paws or golden hands (http://www.american-gymnast.com/catalog/... for tiger paws
