    Tiger paws wrist supports

    Tiger Paws I am debating getting these for tumbling. I have one weak wrist due to a surgery i had a couple of years ago. Does anyone use these? Are they any good? Also should I use just one or are they better used as a pair? (I see they are only sold in pairs) Thanks for your input! Aerialriver

    Free hip wrist action

    I have always struggled with free hips. I have one in my routine on the high bar, which I swing right into from a front uprise. The problem I usually have is that I can't seem to master the proper wrist action involved in the skill. I usually end up with my forearm getting stuck on the bar as I...
