Why? They are used in trampoline all the time. Many girls my level compete a back 1 3/4 to a pullover. And a lot of people do front 1 3/4 into a ballout, barani ballout, or rudi. It is really common practice in t&t.
Thanks for the good replies so far. I'm not upset with Dunno either, he has given me great advice in the past, I just wasn't sure he knew that these were common practices in t&t. Also I messed up my post, got to thinking about it last night. It is a 1 and 3/4 front flip that I am doing but it is a 1 and 1/2 back flip I am doing into a pullover. Sorry for the confusion. I haven;t started working on back 3/4 too much as my front drop is horrible, I can do it if I need to as in a crash type situation and do it to advoid injury but I don't much like it . I would like to be able to do a 3/4 back to a cody tuck but I can't get any height off the stomach drop. Anyways rambling, sorry about the misinformation.
i am concerned about spinal cord injuries. very much so. as you stated going backwards above, you must mean a back 1 1/4 to the back and then a pull over. a back 1 3/4 would be to the stomach.
Please stay on topic.
Okay sorry if I got my terms confused. I am doing a complete back somersault all the way around and landing on my back then doing a pullover out of it. I am sorry you feel adults cannot do high level gymnastics, that is your personal opinion. I am not excessively old. I am in my twenties and competed as a level 8 gymnast when I was a teen. I got into t&t about a year and a half ago and I am psychically fit, I train about 8-10 hours a week, sometimes more around competition time. I do progressions and train at a gym with a coach. I competed all last year at a high level and did very well. I am sorry I sounded confusing by saying I had not trained any new tricks since I was a kid. What I meant was that all of the tricks up until now (mostly anyways) were tricks I had as a kid and regained. Anyways all things aside I would like advice on how to become more aware of where you are at in a flip or twist in the air, my coaches are great but I was looking for different perspectives from others. I am not looking to state a debate over if adults should do gym or not. Respectfully if you cannot stay on topic or help answer my question please don't bother replying.
