The Chalkbucket Challenge??

Good question. I was so busy with worlds and family this year that I really did not get my act together.

It was one of the Best threads ever on CB! I admit, there is photo evidence of me just hanging upside down on monkey bars at the park this summer. It was the first time I have done that in a LONG time. The picture is great, apparently hanging upside down is the secret to looking much younger!

So is anyone going to explain what it is? Or I should say, was?

Links to the first two. I do not think we have had them every year though.

We need a new one! Those challenges made me laugh and laugh!

Well, I'm OUT. I can't even walk in a straight line sober, for crying out loud...let alone do a forward roll....my kid says I am a level -1....

Crud, I should of had the kid video me while I was attempting the arabesque on the sink while putting up Christmas decorations today

My pirouette on the step ladder putting the star on the tree was magical, but the dismount on the dog's tail was probably a deduction

OMG I just woke my child with my cackling...

But remember those challenges are over.

Is the three drink rule a minimum or a maximum?

I did trapeze last month, does that count?

My brother is working on a floor routine ... to be performed for the team on his 42nd birthday. He has his music figured out. He has NO tumbling skills (think toddler's first forward roll... but that toddler is like 200 lbs). We say he is level -3, lol
The "skills" he has:
Arabesque
Candlestick-ish thing
Straight jump
Tuck jump
Split jump (100°)
Leap
Heel snap turn
Pivot turn
Push up
Wobbly forward-ish roll
Pencil roll
Poses

He did a routine a few years ago and the girls loved it. He is doing another one because he was goaded into it by one girl who kept asking about it, lol.
