Synchronized Tumbling |

Wow... It sounds like Ya'll are planning to WIN! Synchronized tumbling & jumps is a SURE way to add MEGA flash to a routine. There are LOTs of possible answers to your questions... here are my first thoughts. 1.Yes, SURE it CAN work. 2.The handspring, toe-touch is a breeze because the rebound from the handspring should shoot the toe-touches sky high. Starting a Handspring OUT OF a toe-touch is a TOUGH one. To build up stamina, practice (on mats) with three tuck-jumps immediately in a row, no pauses in between. Toss a handspring on the end and emphasize WELL-FORMED POSITION throughout the handspring. The toe-touch will be slightly more demanding than a tuck-jump. To advance, put three toe-touches together, back-to-back, without a pause. Then toss a handspring on the end. Don't worry about synchronizing at first, just start building the "muscle." 20-30 repetitions of that series should have your BEST athlete panting. run through that 2-3 times at each of your workouts for a couple of weeks. Then start to synchronize them with only a SINGLE toe-touch followed by the handspring.
3. Shoulder-to-shoulder stagger line is ONE likely positioning. I bet once you're into practice you'll come up with a dozen possible positions that'll take you where you want to go. 4. You could add some extra flash by having the "handspringers" facing BACKWARDS and performing a 1/2 turn INTO the toe-touch. Have fun, Be safe, Push HARD!~CW |
