About
This still exists in the code, you guys! As a skill you can do. I mean, I don’t know why you would because it’s just a B element, but the fact that it remains an option is remarkable when so many old fashioned hip circle and bar-bounce elements have long since been eliminated. This thing was ALL the rage in the 1974 bars final.

I would like to see someone do it, just to be all surprising. Memo to someone who is coming back from injury and just planning to do a flyaway: do this instead.

Value
B

Because gymnastics is a comedy, not a drama
