I find myself really frustrated because I can do a round-off back handspring beautifully, with a nice high rebound, really tight and pretty. But my standing flicks are AWFUL. I cannot snap down/rebound out of it whatsoever and I am desperately trying to get my series standing flick for try-outs in July so I can get on the level 3 team I want to!
Every time I do a standing flick I can't seem to block off my shoulders and my hands hit the ground then my feet hit the ground and once my feet are on the ground then I can try and bring my chest up.
Me and my coach digress, I've done a million and one handstand snap downs but I just can't relay this when I'm throwing the handspring. I am becoming really upset and fed up and wondering if I should just settle at level 2 and not bother with the level 3 tryouts.
*I cannot back limber btw, I can back walk (done countless back walk snap downs), I can front handspring, front walkover but cannot do the back flick!
