I’ve never spotted this skill (Bhardwaj). But OGA gymnast, Alexis, makes it look very easy. Possibly even easier than Pak … except for the downswing on the kip.
Is this Alexis competing at the Battle in Seattle 2008?
Leave a comment if you’ve coached it in the past and have advice.
UPDATE: In the comments Matt says:
This skill was found by accident like many skills one looks for when working with level 9’s and 10’s. She had issues over rotating an over shoot, so what do you do? Work a PAK. When she would land in a handstand for the over shoot, I would count 1,2 then twist her the other half. For any questions spotting ANYTHING on bars, please email me at zo22311 AT yahoo.com.
