Sharing a video soon with you! I'll post it here in the community feed and tag you! I want you to take a look at the first clip and notice how the swinging leg travels away from the pole to help lift the hips higher. This drill really helped Julia get the height she needed to make the second part of the handspring achievable.
In the third clip, you'll see a slow-mo version of that same drill, now combined with the full handspring movement. Watch how the leg stays fairly straight and continues traveling away from the pole until it’s parallel to the floor—then it bends in toward the chest.
In comparison, it looks like in the video you shared here, the swinging leg is bending early and moving more out to the side rather than traveling straight out first. When the video uploads, I want you to let me know if you see that difference? And let me know if you’re up for experimenting with this technique next time you practice?
