This is kind of an offshoot of the rope climbing thread.
Someone posted in the other thread ( I think Dunno) that if a gymnast cannot do these two skills that they will never be a gymnast of note.
My DD's gym has a rope that hangs over a pit but they rarely use it. Also, only a few girls can do a press handstands (they are the exception, not the rule). My DD works on press handstands on her own but never have they done drills at the gym for this.
Are these two skills really that important and why? Just curious really!
