In a basic Level 8 bar routine, when a gymnast does the kip cast hand pirouette on low bar, does it matter how she turns? For example, turning her good hand backwards and then pirouetting like in this video:

OR turning inward and then switching the second hand like in this video:

Is one way better than the other for progressive skills?
Also, how in the world does one make their hand/arm turn for a Healy? Is that just shoulder flexibility? Does it end in eagle grip?
I have never understood pirouettes. Thanks.
