During the rockback...

Unread postby gl356407 » Tue May 15, 2007 12:44 am

Recently I've been trying to work on a phase during the rockback, more specifically the time between the swing and the inversion. I know to get fully inverted I have to first "bring my feet past my hands", but that's exactly what I'm having trouble with right now. What cues do you guys use to accomplish this during the vault?

high bar or rings. and do bubkas, start by swinging, and bring your legs up and over.

Just try doing some pop-ups with a lower grip and as you get used to the feel of it then move higher on the pole.
