Women Stalder skills on floor

[AlexandraU16]

I am not exactly sure if it has an exact name or if it is even an official skill but is a “handstand roll down to stalder press” on floor more difficult than a static stalder/press handstand? I saw a video of some MAG boys working them and I couldn’t figure out if the momentum from the roll makes it easier or harder since they have to reverse that to go into the press?

It depends, if you're struggling more with the shoulder strength, then the momentum of the roll might help a little. If you struggle more on the compression side, then it might be easier from static.
From a pure strength point of view, it requires more strength to do it from static. But doing it from a roll you need more control.

Great explanation!

So other internet searches say doing like stalder rolls/forward rolls into the press can make it easier but coming into it from a handstand roll is basically controlling a negative and then having to reverse that momentum to go into the press and that it is a much more challenging variation. That would make sense as the boys were obviously very capable of static presses but were struggling to connect it immediately from the handstand roll down. But like I said, I don’t know hence the asking here

Also I guess MAG would have been the more appropriate forum but I only know WAG.
