Gymnastics : How to Perform a Somersault

[cuteypieification]

I call that A forward roll

[dare0321]

Yeah, I can't even do a somersault either (I'm almost 15) it's sad but I'm hoping to learn! :)

[SYScottiey]

Yep I call that a rolly polly too.... I was looking for technique to doing one into the sea. The back flip is fine the forward one tasking.

[funkydunkystar]

i call it a rolly polly any one else?

[walktheroadtosuccess]

What? Ahahaha ! A roll? A normal and basic person yould do that! XD! :))

[iGlitterStar]

I can't do a somersault to save my life :( and I'm only 13... I always hurt my back!! So now I'm just scared to do one ;(

[halliberrihalliberri]

that is a forward roll not a somersault

[joefreeman856]

When I was child... I wasn't able to do that. So I don't think I will be now.

[butterflycrystal23]

it teaches us how to do it properly and safe!

[emmyellaleo]

This looks so hard -_-'

[lamo0or1]

[fatcaty98]

..........OMG THATS SOOOO HARD!!!!!!!!

[ChaosTheoryTheRealis]

[TheEverTwistedOne]

experts who call a forward roll a somersault?....

[Koyumesan]

Gwahahaha!! This video is most popular with adolescent girls and middle aged men. I feel a little less dirty now. ;3

[glamxglitter]

I keep crossing my legs at the end

[chinkbby1]

the lung thing and the look under your arm thing really helped , thanks :)

[debeastdueeast]

@rihannarocks6 Wow, it worked, I'm supposed to see lines fingerprints and fingernails and whatnot right...

[DerDerDeineMamiBangt]

haha who stretches for a roll 

[khyeisasmilechild]

@DerDerDeineMamiBangt uhm smart people . all gymnast in basically everymove we use our ankles hamstrings aka legs wrist neck etc

[ILoveMakeup61]

@DerDerDeineMamiBangt Uhhh, you have to stretch or you pull a muscle. Smart people do this so they can perform the move correctly. So, She's S-M-A-R-T. I mean why NOT stretch. Are you in gymnastics or something. BECAUSE IM JUST STARTING. Of course you have to stretch!!!

[KatyBugg3051]

This is confussing me. In cheerleading they told me a somersault was like a front limber. Which is which??

[KatherineRogers]

For those that are complaining that small children CAN do this....that IS the point of the video. It is a demonstration using an older student of a technique that little children can begin to learn. Also notice the hand positions and how to finish up. For a Gymnastics competition tiny children need to develop those habits even with their first skill.

[TraceurTheodore]

Keep pressing 6 = ROFL.

[xDkeykeyxD]

Who doent know how to do a frickin somersalt?!

[SparklyBunny123]

thats a forward roll.

my 3 year old little brother can do this.

[avaso123]

i can only do this on my bed!!

[eveihl]

Is she looking at her belly button or something...else? Hmmm (non-pervert)

[FeatherBreaker]

the little girl is like fake smiling.. xD

[Adventuretimeaddict1]

if u perss 1 repeatedly she is poking her ass

[Adventuretimeaddict1]

@Adventuretimeaddict1 i mean 2

[Lori16311]

she has a very beautiful body! very nice girl

[groveavenue]

@Lori16311 You are not encouraged to watch this video and other videos like this with that in mind Sir. I am assuming you are male, Sir.

[44ebutuoy44]

thats not a somersault... thats a forward roll...

[kamkam1200]

My cousin can do this. My cousin, is 2.

[differentpineapple]

@saraurby77365 an ad about JB Someday came on for me ... Not quite as bad as your ad, but... still not awesome. (:

[lilgymnast2011]

WHY DID SHE NEED TO STRETCH FOR A FORWARD ROLL THAT'S SO STUPID !!!

[SubzeroedMind]

Wait, that was a normal, freaking roll forwards... Every idiot can do that :s, I expected some acrobatics (fast forwarded, maybe I misseD?)

[SubzeroedMind]

DO THE SUMMERSAULT ALREADY, BITCH >:(!

Cute voice :)

[KoalaSnufflies]

That girl has short legs

[72skytop]

What a relief. I thought somehow you had managed to graduate from school with your deficient spelling and english skills. Now all we have to work on is your cussing and bad manners then you will have it made!

[XxSPYWOLFxX1]

keep pressing 8

[APPELHOUSE01]

@XxSPYWOLFxX1 lol

[missbigbooty97]

haha she said mushles

[72skytop]

Caroline gave us a nice down blouse shot at about :20.

[babygurlz1998]

@72skytop hahaha.. SHUT THGE FUCK UP U PERVERT!

[72skytop]

@babygurlz1998 Why don't you learn how to spell and type?

But she did give us a really nice look. See? I can spell and type. Can you? All you can do is cuss and mispell.

[babygurlz1998]

stfu Bitch!

[72skytop]

@babygurlz1998 I rest my case on your vocabulary and spelling skills. Why don't you go back to school and learn how to express yourself with cussing and making a fool out of yourself?

[babygurlz1998]

@72skytop No you don't! You need to Shut The Fuck Up, Bitch! Is that better? By the way, I am in school! :)

[crazychiic1]

@72skytop hahahaha i knooooow!!

[Loren400]

0:36 "Okay, stop." Haha. I couldn't remember what a somersault was. I just call it a front roll. But if you need a "How To" video to do this man, gymnastics is NOT for you!

[Shakeitupyes]

[buckwheat890]

[pritstickifiy]

[pritstickifiy]

lol.

[pritstickifiy]

noo, american's are retarted, this is a forward roll...

[KataNight]

@pritstickifiy As an American I would say these two individually are retarded, not all Americans are retarded. Unless you want to represent every British person, stop.

[doobsdemons]

it is hard for me to do a somersault because i know how to do a headstand. please give more help!!!:)

[silverbits101]

You are good

[pritstickifiy]

that was a forward roll... a somersault is a front flip...

[19BARD85]

@pritstickifiy ur retarded, this is a somersault a front flip is like a somersault but you're in the air and off the ground.

[Debbiemma]

somersault????? yeah right that was just a front roll without touching your head!! does anyone else agree??

[iloveShaneDawson911]

the somersault is about all i can do...... lol

[andreatan200]

[4everhorserider]

you wanna stretch your mushles

[bizzword]

i keep trying but its really hard and i've tried watching other videos but none of them are helping me one said to make ur legs straight but its really hard and i keep trying but i always land on my side

[Nils3OWN]

Holy shit, that's some advanced crap right there!

[yodledoo]

i know how to do that but it hurts!!!

[GuavaToasty]

I love how all the other videos say, "How to DO..." and this one says, "How to PERFORM". That's how they make the people who can't do this feel better about themselves.

"Hey, guess what? I can do a backflip."

"Oh, yeah? Well I can PERFORM a somersault because Expertvillage told me so."

[GymnastGirl4Eva]

If your over the age of 5 and you still can't do a somersault your s.o.l

[wwfww]

she's hot

[xxbeansxx1997]

i can do that. why not do it in the air

[MsCarowinds]

@xxbeansxx1997 Because that'd be a front flip, Einstien

[xxbeansxx1997]

@MsCarowinds no it wont coz a front flip is where you put ur hands on the floor but a somersault is when u use no hands at all

[MsCarowinds]

@xxbeansxx1997 That's completely backwards. -.- Do you even TAKE gymnastics??

[xxbeansxx1997]

@MsCarowinds yep i do so

[MsCarowinds]

@xxbeansxx1997 ha ok bud, but trust me, you got it backwards
