What is this skill called?

[jes.the.gymnast]

sometimes called a half in or a tsuk

 

[BlairBob]

I thought it was called Whippet or Jonah, but I'd have to look through the COP again.

good lord, someone actually had the courage to compete that?

We do that off the tumble track for fun, but I would never consider letting a gymnast throw that on floor..

come on...are you all serious? it's called a barani-in. in trampoline sometimes referred to as fliffis. fliffis can be barani-in or barani-out. so, if the barani is 1st you will hear it called barani-fliffis. if the barani is 2nd, you will hear it called fliffis-barani. but usually just barani-in.

jes.the gymnast: it is never called a half in. and a barani-in is a tsuk touching the vault table.

blairbob: a whippet is a skill done in mag. a jonah is a 1/2 turn to back flip from your back on the trampoline. in the old days it was also called cradle back.

ryantroop: novikov [coaching in louisiana and owns gym] from the old soviet union competed run-front handspring-barani-in. several gymnasts have also done barani-out both boys and girls. gogoladze[coaching in crystal lake at crystal lake gymnastics, illinois] competed run-front handspring-front layout-barani-in.

here's an example: YouTube - trampo ulysse barani in back out

wouldn't that just be a 1/2 out? That I could see (and have seen). It's just the creep factor of twisting into a backwards flip that gets me, and such an awkward take off..

here is a 1/2 turn back somi from vault. it is called a cuervo after the cuban vaulter that did it first: YouTube - Denise López 2000 OGQual VT1&2.flv

I dont teach it.. really ever... so it didnt come to mind.

If we can add enough Cuervo and Jeager together, the gym would be really fun.
