Topic: 360 underbars

[Algie]

Awesome move.

But i'm struggling with it a little. Having a bit of trouble getting it really smooth.

So anyone have any tips for improvements?

much appreciated!

I got mine to where they are very smooth (not fast yet, but very smooth) all you have to do is practice them to get your confidence built up, smoothness, and speed comes with comfort and confidence, and this applies to all techniques.

What arm do you turn/speed vault on? It's best to train both sides, etc etc, but it's easier to learn 360 underbars on your dominant side first, then move on after you've figured out the motion.

I go off my right, my right palm is facing me and is the support, like a turn vault, the left hand is facing the bar. I jump off my right foot  and twist into it.

Hope that helps.

The way I drilled mine was to find a handicap ramp rail with one rail on either side of a sidewalk, and find a comfortable starting spot, go one direction through both rails one way, and then coming back do the other side, I tended to do whichever side was on the higher side of the rail (ie / = right side, \ = left side. (exaggerated, but you get the idea)). I did 20 on each side and saw great improvements on it.

thanks for the input. It seems like instead of asking for help i should just be practicing them more.

so i'll get on that.
