Holy crap.
Today, hand-to-hands: stuck EVERY jump from shoulders. First extended-arm hand-to-hands way overhead, first cartwheels in, first front mount in (got it... twice? But a lot of good attempts also), first "suicide" exits, and got my tuck-through to the ground really clean.
Working with Rocky is a rare treat and one I'd better not get used to, but damn that was a good 90 minutes. My head is exploding from all the new material. (It wasn't so long ago, was it, that I was too discouraged to even try this trick? Crazy.)
I also got closer than ever before to a successful jump-up to base's hands on the floor. It's not there yet. But maybe it's coming.

Date: 2013-04-21 01:40 pm (UTC)Exactly two people on my LJ friendslist know what all these things are. But I had to write it down just so I could remember, and mentally rehearse, the tricks. It was such a huge influx of information.
At some point in one of these lessons I'll get video. I tried this time, but got the phone angled wrong, alas.
