KGB is better than Water!

Postby Vin Stefanelli » Thu Apr 10, 2008 2:34 am

Whooooops!

I managed to throw my first frontrolls today!
wow they are way mor fun than the backroll
for now

weird, I did'em first on KGB
before on water
I'll have to try on the water next

so far the only thing I've done first on water
is the Backroll...

even weirder
I nailed it counter-clockwise
right away no-problemo
but clockwise... what the heck?
I only flail around and land on my arse or hip

anybody else have such a mindblock?

Well I did try the frontroll on water this past weekend and
its the same, easy, not too easy at first, counter-clockwise
and not do-able yet on the reverse clockwise

I'll have to try the hang bar on tree method
I suppose.

and I forgot to try the One Footer on water
