tribute to Glenn Sundby

Back in the day, I knew Glenn Sundby as the editor of International Gymnast magazine. He is still emeritus Publisher today 50-years after it’s founding in 1957.

He later founded the International Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 1986. Initially located in Oceanside, California, it was moved into Oklahoma City in 1997.

Glenn Sundby I also knew as the “Have a Happy Handstand” man. He regularly published unusual photos of handstands.

We’re going to pay tribute to Glenn’s legacy on this blog by posting our own handstand photo series.

If you have a good one in some unusual location — Castle Rock, New Zealand, for example — send a copy by email (from top of the home page) and we just might post it on this site.
