Fun gymnastics skill ideas.

Ok, we have seen full twisting double backs and now more recently, double doubles, what about a 1.5 twisting double back....kinda like a full in and 1/2 out arabian? I would love to see that.

Actually, i was doing my double arabian full and full in-full out the other day and started messing around with something like that!! i'm going to be in the gym ALL day tomorrow, so i'll let u know how it goes!

I would LOVE someone to try a double straddle front salto (into the pit or on tramp) I know its almost impossible, you would slow down too much but woudl still love to see it

Also... a handstand push into backsalt on floor (like a tsuk ) its deffinately not possible yet but will be eventually.

AND if someone could youtube this for me (im thinking Geoff ) i know this is possible but i havent seen it done... round off backsalt backsalt tumble on floor.

We are so all daredevils. ! How about a triple tsuk with a pushoff into a rebound!!!!! I'm feeling daring today!

ok this one just came to me and i can imagine all of the looks if i were to do it at a meet ok, on the bars, you would start out as a toe-up to the high bar, but you would hang on long enough to do a flip up to the high bar and catch. i would make a diagram to help those who better understand, but its hard to translate

Double side flip.

YouTube - Men's gymnastics high bar releases and dismounts

pretty crazy stuff in this video, I dunno why but I especially think the release at 1:26 is pretty cool, even if it looks a little sloppy. And the last dismount should be listed in the dictionary under "perfection".

 

[all-aroundgirl]

Triple bhs with a side twist into front rebound. I like anything triple or more! if that's at all possible...

Yay! I'm so excited!

 

[all-aroundgirl]

Awesomeness!!!!!!! We are some crazy gymnasts though to be dreaming up these moves that would probably kill us if we tried them.

how about on the high bar, facing the low bar, do a cast handstand and swing down and almost as though you are going to do a shoot over to the low bar, let go but do a layout dismount over the low bar and land on the other side of the low bar

That's a cool idea, but actually I think that's basically what Nadia did way back when.

Diego Hypolito does an arabian double pike 1/1 out -- is that sort of what you're talking about?

I think you guys would like this montage!

It's a pity the quality is not great because there are some cool skills!

[FlipTwistFly28]

Haha! That was a really cool montage! Lots and lots of unique moves!

I forgot to put this on the other one I just posted, but the gym I used to go to had a girl who got a skill named after her on beam. It was a switched leg layout stepout I think.

 

[all-aroundgirl]

How about a triple piruotte. It's probably been done before but boy does it get you dizzy!

 

[cccam]

i've always wanted to see someone do a double pike, but the first flip was a layout and the second was a pike. but like, really defined body positions. And this is like the extreme gymnastics but what if this was a tumbling pass:

front tuck stepout ro back 2 1/2 twist step out ro bhs back 3 1/2 twist right into a front full.

and once i saw a romanian do: ro back 1 1/2 twist stepout ro bhs back 2 1/2 twist right into a front layout 1 1/2 twist it was amazing!!!!!

I've never seen this, and it's not even in the code of points, but I've been thinking a gainer mount on the side of the beam would so cool. I don't know if it's possible, but it would be very cool to see. (for those who have a copy of the 2009 code of points, it would be like a reverse of the very first gainer dismount in the list(6.106).)
