I must learn to do this!!! I've got the strength that's for sure. I need to figure out the mechanics...

@boodiba - yeah. That's the tricky part. Finding your sweet spot. The key thing for me was really deepening the hip flexors/inner thighs deeeeeep to allow space for the pelvis to get over the shoulders. I have an extremely short torso in comparison to my legs which helped tremendously, because of this I have deep lean too, as you can see. :) Good luck.

That was amazing. I asked someone if they could do that, but I can't remember who. I asked if they could do uttanasana ang then turn it into a headstand. Was it you??

@mikelv7002 - not sure if was me. :)

Maybe go for a landing that does not break your toes.

I dont want to look at your vidoes anymore - it reminds me that I am an inferior species.

It's amazing how your back remains very flat when you bend over to touch the ground
