    Front Walkovers...

    Okay, I have my front walkover but it's not very pretty. I'm always bending my legs the whole time, except at the end when I straighten the one that steps in front of the base leg. I'm starting to get the hang of straightening my legs at the beginning, but it feels weird! Anyway, that's not the...

    Front Walkover Drills...?

    I'm really close to getting my front walkover. Really, REALLY close. I get up a few inches, but then I either fall back or fall forward. Does anybody know any drills or strength exercises that will help me get my front walkover? Because failing at it again and again isn't helping- at all.

    sudden back walkover fear

    Hey everyone! In the last couple of weeks I've developed a fear of doing back walkovers on high beam, for no reason at all. They've always made me a bit nervous, but I do them every practice and it hasn't been a problem until now. It seems to have started when I began training round-off back...

    Back Walkover Connection on Beam?

    So I have been having lots of trouble on my bwo connection. I can make the first one easily, but as soon as I try to go for the next one, I freeze! My coach says to just keep moving my hands back, but this doesn't seem to help. I can connect them perfectly on the floor. Any tips? :confused:

    Back Walkovers and Back Handspring Progressions

    Just curious, how important do you think back walkovers are in the process of progressing to back handsprings? Do you find back walkovers to be more important for girls than boys?
