Sternford Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 How far apart do your hands need to be in a wide-arm handstand for it to be counted in a competition? If they aren't wide enough do they deduct points or just not count it at all? Trying to get a routine together for a competition and this seems like the only C I am close to achieving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 nowdays, judges look for roughly the distance of one fist from head to floor. you may get credit for being higher than that though but it's generally the ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternford Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 That's with the head looking towards the floor or in a neutral position, because most of the videos I see have the person with their head tilted back looking more at the floor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Generally with eyes looking towards the floor, head neutral. But you will see them crane their head out often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternford Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 Okay, thanks. I can do about two fists off the ground right now so I don't know if I'll have it in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
