    Straight Arm Kips

    I've had my kip for a while now. My form is really good and all around my kip is nice. The only problem is I have bent arms. I'm going to compete level 5 soon and I want straight arms so i can go right into the front hip circle. Does anyone have any tips or drills? Thanks!
