    Coaches Technique Discussion: Front Giants

    Giants

    Anyone have any advice on getting those legs straight in the giant? Gymbabi is frustrated, her giants that were straight legged when she wore her shoes (after the cast came off, the doctor said to wear athletic shoes for a month) are now bent. I think it's just getting her timing all adjusted so...
