I am really bad at kip cast handstands and I’ve been working at them for almost a year now. I have a meet in a week that I really want to compete bars at so i was hoping that somebody could give me some tips and drills to help me get mine better by then, please!!!!!

--I do a kip cast straddle to handstand
--I'm a level 7/8
--I think my problem is that I’m scared to lean over the bar

--I also have a problem hollowing over the low bar in my giants (I hit my feet on the low bar while doing giants) I’d like some help on this too though it isn’t as urgent

as you come through the HS in the giant, think about piking at the hips, butt up and holding that as late as possible. Think back of shoulders up versus chest going down.

for cast HS, think cast-straddle-on, jump straddle press HS.

for connecting to kip, drop kip into cast-straddle on or kip into cast straddle on, compress pike through bottom, end kip with feet and chest in front of bar, drive heels.
