SUE IS HERE 😍. After extended butterfly you have to bring that back leg to the same side of the pole as the other leg rather than going into inverted D. However, how to not fall off from there is TBD for me.

I third this question because I'm in the "ugly" aerial invert club too, particularly on spin, and particularly when I'm tired towards the end of my routine. I know we talked about it in my last private on static but on spin it's still ugly 😂

Gemini split, to black widow, flip over to flatline Scorpio, swivel to brass monkey, sit up to hood ornament....

Cannot do a gargoyle so will not be able to complete them all but if someone is feeling spicy they can do gargoyle between Gemini split and black widow of that combo to do all the things

I literally feel like this posting my progress videos sometimes, but it did seem like a big improvement 😂😂😂. I was trying to be kinder to myself and pretend the first attempt wasn't 🗑️ but we both know me

Ignore the second clip, that's my bad side and an embarrassment to your entire app.

Drop down: why am I so awkward and bad besides the obvious, (me going on the wrong side of the pole)?

Assisted press up: again, why awkward and bad?

The shapes at the end: are they right?

Stephanie Tallant See I say that, but if you actually tried to fight me on which is the easier transition, I'm such a Steph Stan I'd probably be persuaded. You could tell me the sky is green and I'd tell myself "it's bc she's good at pole that's why you don't see it" 🙌🏽😂

One last tip I noticed too is that when I grab for the pole in Allegra/allegasus, I actually flip my hand that's grabbing the pole so I'm in cup grip grabbing the front of the pole. I personally can't do an Allegra reaching around grabbing the back of the pole like you're trying to do in your video bc I have T-Rex arms. Curious about that top arm placement and if one is technically correct or if both are valid Stephanie Tallant

I was intrigued bc I didn't know this move, so after watching Steph's 90 second pole dictionary video I decided to attempt bc I'm chaotic 🙃It looks like in your video you're swinging the inside leg around and keeping it straight (like a jade split kinda) and then trying to reach for the pole by lifting your upper body to get that hand around the inside leg. I was able to do it by bending the inside leg and thinking of bringing my knee towards my shoulder (more like a BOP) which allowed me to grab the pole around the inside leg easily to get into the move. Again, I've attempted this move only one time so defer to Steph 😬

Stephanie Tallant ahhhh I see, I think this is "pole terminology" confusion. I was doing a move I learned as "flying jasmine" so I need to just do the right move 😂😂😂
