I’d love to see Eddie compete for USA in Worlds 2017. He’d have a shot at both FX and Vault finals.

are Arabians forwards or backwards tumbling?

WAG considers them forward (SALTOS FORWARD & SIDEWARD). MAG backward. It’s silly that the two Technical committees can’t agree.

The takeoff is more critical than the landing position in my opinion. Arabians are much more a backwards tumbling skill than forwards.
