I recall the first time I saw a coach swinging two gymnasts on the same straps Bar. I instantly tried to hire her. 🙂

It was the only way her kids could get enough repetitions, she told me. (Most gyms do not have enough strap bars.)

Since then I’ve seen it many times.

But I was surprised and shocked seeing a coach at Manjak’s put 3 kids on simultaneously. 🙂

They were working kip drills.

Torres, who moved from Argentina to Sweden several years ago to be with her boyfriend, won the Swedish Championship over Lovisa Estberg and Julia Rumbutis, both of whom are more than 10 years younger than she is. (Swedish Gymnastics Federation)

She was 11th on Vault in Europeans prelims.

What about an Air Bag base with foam on top?

An Air Bag does seem more forgiving than a Resi pit.

Classy. Fingers extended on Crosses.
