Air Barrel or Octagon?

I’d use BOTH. 😀

For me the Octagon is a bit safer, therefore better for Recreation classes.

I’d not normally use either for teaching Backward Handspring. BUT both are useful for Walkovers and Forward Handsprings.

They have been doing back flips for a while.

The Unitree G1 is the most agile, so far.

Nastia’s Bars

What I loved about Nastia’s Bars, back in the era where 10 skills were counted, was the variety of elements.

BEST skill? Layout Geinger.

Flyaway to Flat Back

BEFORE we let kids flip, it’s essential that they understand well how to move the centre of gravity AWAY from the Bar at the point of release.

Some call it “pitching out” the centre of gravity.

Flyaway not Flyclose.
