fwd layout to double tuck

Wow.

Tough tumbling line.

To watch you could click on the embed on this site. Or click through to Gymnastike.

The embed has no video ad. The Gymnastike page does.

I mention this as I’m a bit irked at Gymnastike for not being more transparent on which of their links lead to the membership only videos, and which are free to all.

Normally I’d tell people to go to Gymnastike rather than watch on this site. But right now, if you are not a paid Gold member, you should be leery of wasting your time on a Gymnastike link. Not knowing in advance whether or not you can watch it.

I’d recommend you to join Gymnastike Gold, but I’m also irked they are so reluctant to tell folks the price of membership up front. (My personal philosophy is not to buy any product that has deceptive or hidden pricing.)

All that said, this is a very cool tumbling sequence. Thanks for posting it Gymnastike. 🙂

Competing first out of 10 competitors, Dabritz hit her routine and earned a 9.9. …
