Matteo.Za Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Wow, those straddle rotations (I don't know the name, sorry, don't execute me ) are awesome! I'd like to be able to do them on floor one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Mak Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 matteo.Za, i think you're referring to the move at 0:29. those are called thomas flairs or flairs. bboys (breakdancers) spell it differently. bboys call it "flares." learning to do flairs on the ground is my goal as well, although it will probably take me a few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rajan Shankara Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I was messing around on my homemade mushroom today, the session looked almost exactly like that. Actually...second session today ever, can almost get one swing but just fail to get my hand back on for the full rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I noticed that Coach spells it 'flairs,' and I lean towards his knowing gymnastics a touch or two better than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Slocum Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Nah, it's "flair" as in "he does his pommel horse routine with flair". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Douglas Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Nah, it's "flair" as in "he does his pommel horse routine with flair".I see. Like how a Russian is like a planche walk, if you were in a real hurry. Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keenan Smith Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 At times I cannot tell if they are break dancing or doing gymnastics with those leg swings. One moment they are slightly flailing then another it's completely controlled and almost windmill like.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Davies Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 It looked to me like he did two types of flairs towards the end there. Is that the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
