pro body builder would not do it cuz thier muscle weight exceeds thier lifting capacity + they don't have quality muscles,( know some one muscular but kinda weak).
A SLOW pull Straight Arm Butterfly to Cross (held), then L-Cross (held), St-Arm/St-Body to Maltese (Held) is what won 1st place in 5th Waikiki Championships. My competitor separated his shoulder!
So it's just a straight pull from a hang? I don't recall anyone doing that to a MALTESE, but as I mentioned there was one guy who did a straight arm pull from a hang to a cross.
Hey, I also just noticed the one guy who did a SIDEWISE cross. That still in the book?
Kom, Left (or Right) Olympic cross, never taken out of book, just hard to transition into or out of without a deduction. Bent knee loses credit though
Not true. In V3 version is not such a thing like an olympic iron cross!!!!!!!! Especialy because there is no C cross in strength group, just in swing to strength group.
I don't think it's forbidden but it certainly wouldn't be a C.
The code lists "any cross" as a B and I can't find anything in the code prohibiting an Olympic cross. (I would think an Olympic cross would fall under the category of "any cross".)
The young man doing a quick pull BF (2:15-18) with inlocate probably lacked the energy & strength to pull out of the cross (required for full credit BF). No discredit to him as very difficult for anyone to complete, Especially at his age. Such muscular development in youth, can lead to later skeletal problems if not trained correctly.
3:35 so snappy!

What's a butterfly?
Oh, shit, Van Gelder's a beast! Inverted cross, lower to back lever, bounce to Maltese. Sick.
I also liked that pull to cross from a hang.

a butterfly just goes from hang pull straight up to cross and if ur strong enough pull out into support.
