    Layout Flyaway Help!

    Hi! I've known how to do a tucked fly-away for quite some time now, so to get a jump start in level 7 I tried to do a layout fly-away but I couldn't do it! :eek: My legs would immediately tuck as soon as I let go of the bar! :confused: Any suggestions? -GCG

    Warning: Question not for the feint of heart. That said... I have a connundrum... At our state meet, my best bar girl pulled in on her double. You can all fill in the blank from there. I reviewed the video over and over... and the best I could do is exactly what I did - I kept...

    Blasted Fly Away

    My DD is having a very difficult time in recapturing her flyaway. It's been almost a year since she's done one and sometimes I think the coach will give up on her. She gets frustrated because her other L6 and L7 skills are progressing nicely on everything else. She's had a growth spurt of...

    Coaches Double Fly Away

    So.. Ive had my method for teaching these for a while.. and had success with it... but another coach saw how I was teaching and offered his advice which, I thought, was mind bogglingly revolutionary at the time (just a different way of teaching what was most likely going on already).. and when I...

    Ways to get into a front flyaway?

    Hello! I can do a front flyaway, but I was wondering what are some of the ways you can get into it. I know you can do a front giant into it, but are there any other ways?

    Giant Flyaway

    Today was a big day for me! I did my first giant flyaway (with a spot)! However, I didn't do it on our pit bar because I don't like doing flyaways there, so I went for it on a real bar :D! Sadly, I over-rotated and put my arm back when I landed (which your not supposed to do :o) and hurt myself...

    Coaches head position in flyaways
