The best thing you can do is to bring home a thick gym mat, which will give you some cushioning without letting you sink in too far, as a mattress would. If you don’t have that, consider using a long couch cushion or a mattress, while being careful not to sink into them too much — if you don’t have enough momentum, you may end up falling back into the handstand position and then sinking in to the floor instead of springing up.  You can also consider using a trampoline, if you have one, to give yourself the confidence to use a harder surface. Just remember that you won’t need nearly as much momentum to fall backward on a trampoline.  If you’re trying the back handspring outside in your yard, pick a softer surface, like a grassy surface that’s a little pliable, instead of concrete or another harder surface that won’t give.
