This video shows how to do cartwheel without hands twist ( in chinese: Ce Kong Fan - Zhuan ti ). This skill is also called aerial twist and hypertwist. There are 2 ways of learning this skill.

1) Do a butterfly Twist without the butterfly runup and swing the right leg higher than to horizontal level ( easier way )

2) Learn the front whel and then twist ( much harder, but looks much better ).

I recommend you learn the b-twist variation first and then work on your front whip and straighten the technique. At the beginning make sure you have a soft landing area ( a sand pit, a gymnastics pit with foam cubes or jump into water ).
