i don't see the front here..

it looks more like a braney.. (sp?)

[SkittyMac]

ehh. im very on the fence about the arms. I teach it arms down.. gives more twist to kids just learning. I agree the twist was early but I'm sure she's been doing it for a while. Kids just learning won't twist that early

I can do a front flip on trampoline but not on the ground

[MsDegrassichik]

What is different between front half and birani ???

[Daisy0998]

@gymnastics46 Birani ;)

That's what I thought.

People, a Barani is a trampoline term for a front half, she coaches girl's gymanstics so the terminology is bit different. Just like they call a front one in a half a Rudy for trampoline and just a front one in a half for floor.

@alyahs Yeah, I think it is

@woody280486 im the same way lol

[gymnast444444]

um that's just a tuck barani, there's no such thing as a front half. there's tuck, pike, and straight barani's. most people just think that a straight barani is a front half, but that isn't the proper term

i keep trying on my 8 by 14 trampoline but i can only twist a quarter

[woody280486]

okay, I can front flip fine, back tuck, back handspring all fine. But I have so much trouble when it comes to a twist. even just a simple half twist from the tramp onto a mat. any tips to help with twisting?
