@mookyloop uhh if yr too scared to do it right away. try swinging and then when yr horizontal let go and land on yr back. to this about 5-10 times, so it builds yr confidence then afterward swing hard and do what HE^ said and u shud get it. (in foam pit of course) its how i learned but i just did it after i was confident. its really fun! =D
my coach always told me (when im doing my cast handstand layout half flyaway) just let go when you see your feet at a certain spot ! its always helped me!(:
just get high enough then let go and throw yourself back. I don't take lessons and I did it first try it's really easy once you get the courage. My friend did it first try and it was his first day.
Since the legs need to remain straight to do a layout flyaway the cue is going to be to see the toes. However, since the greatest fear of anyone doing a flyaway is hitting the bar, the shoulders need to be stretched at the point of release. This can be facilitated by a complete relaxation of the shoulders at the bottom of the swing. From that point on the shoulders remain stretched to the release point.
@gymnasticoach Question. What else other than open shoulders can you do to get your flyaway moving away from the bar? I'm a coach and ex-gymnast though I still enjoy training. But the flyaway is a big weak point for me. Even when trying to keep my body straight shoulders stretched, I tend to be too close to the bar. I can get away further by using my shoulders to push away from the bar a second before letting go but its not a very smooth method.
ummm can somebody help i need to learn PLZ REPLY

@daigaara when he says that, he means to look at your knees and stay tight during the flyaway!

For layout I would say see your toes.

Does this work for a layout too or is there a different cue for a layout flyaway?
