is a back hand spring or handstand easier to learn?

i’m gonna try out for cheer leading when i go back to school so i’m trying to practice some basic gymnastic moves. i used to be able to do a back hand spring when i was little but some how forgot how to do it. i just end up chickening out every time i try to do one. anyway, i’m also trying to learn how to do a handstand but it’s so freaking hard! should i learn back hand springs first or hand stands? which is easier? who is a former/current cheer leader? any tips?

A handstand should be easier to learn. It is easier to balance on your hands, then it is to spring off of your hands back onto your feet.
