Women Clear hip

[mOm2gymnast<3]

Hello all, my dd is going lv6 she has her cast handstand but is having trouble with clear hip. She doesn't get the space clear enough between her hips and bars. Not sure if that makes sense. :/ no drills are done but spotting. And that is not helping her. What else can she work on?

I was thinking especially the cast drop to mat.......

There is a clear hip in the level 5 bars routine. Did she have it enough to pass level 5 but it just isn't very big? Or did she have it and lose it?

She has it but is not very big.

I know many gymnasts with beautiful cast handstands that cannot get their clear hip for the life of them. I would suggest having her start from a lower cast until she can really get a feel for where she needs to throw her shoulders under.
Is there any way you could attach a video of her clear hip?

My DD is in this group......either big cast handstand, and the clear hop goes off kilter, or a horizontal cast, with a good clear hip........coach is trying to teach her to control the come down from handstand.......
