nice! i am not doing them yet, but trying to get the hang of it. I cant seem to move my legs very fast when im up in the air which makes no sense because i have huge leg muscles. these are cool, but i wish i could do them
@RebiTitanic when I was still dancing, my teacher would have us hold onto a folding chair and break it down in pieces- jump up with knees crossed and back- then keep trying till you get that and then work up. Believe me, it took a very long time to finally be able to do them :) the hardest part is jumping high enough to fit it all in before you land lol
We call them backy thingies. That looked nice! But my teacher makes us bring both our feet up to the bum before letting the right leg go down before coming back up to switch with the left leg. :)
Genie jump. I like that better than bicycle jump! :D nice job! How long did it take you to get them like that?

Nice jump! This really helped me understand it. My school calls them bicycles but I think Genie is a better name :P

Bicycles have a single foot takeoff, this has a 2 footed takeoff, I think that's the main difference.

I like your name for this jump! In our school we just call it stupid :) You do it very well and I love the way you slowed it down and repeated it.
