About
So, technically, this mount takes a whole paragraph to describe how you’re jumping with a quarter turn to touch the beam and then doing another immediate quarter turn to support on your second arm, and it all just amounts to…so you mean a jump 1/2 to handstand?

This one has been in the code of points for decades upon decades but has never really caught on. Maybe because it’s described so convolutedly, maybe because it sounds like work for only a C, or maybe because you need some actual space to run perpendicular to the beam and…what meet has that anymore?
