There's no specific time-frame for accomplishing gymnastic tricks. You need to keep working on the trampoline and practing. You need to also work on building upper body strength and arm strength as well. Have you tried it on the floor yet? Did you ask your teacher/trainer/coach what he/she thinks? They'll know best for when you're ready to try it on the floor. At my studio, they practice on gym mats with a separate springboard.

It takes time. You'll get there!!

it depends on you some people it takes longer but for me it only took about 2 months practicing 1 time a week for an hour so it really depends on you

Once you have a really good handstand, bridge with your arms in line with your shoulders, and jump back you'll really be ready to do them on the floor.

Just keep practicing and work on drills when you can: http://geocities.com/aescougarcheer/tumb...
