Just out of curiosity..... I've seen many gyms let their gymnasts compete giants by kicking their legs (bending and then straightening) up to get to a handstand and then also kicking up every time they need to get around to do a giant. I've also seen continuous bent legs throughout the entire skill. Is this preferable than not letting them compete or does it create problems later on? Is it better to have the form right from the onset or does this strategy have no adverse effect?
