sorry fo the quality

It looks like another and maybe easier way to do a muscle up :)

Alessandro Mainente

easier...mmm not for me..i discovered i was able to do that after a controlled backward roll to support...

It's a normal backward roll to support with use of momentum. (And it's not easier than muscle up.)

Alessandro Mainente

for me is more difficult than the normal backward roll because i start from a inverted pike hang, i feel that my biceps are more tired than a normal backward roll!!!

Falcon

Yes it should be, because you have longer way to go up :)

Alex- try slowing it down and you will notice some "interesting" hypertrophy in your arms after practicing it for a little while ;)

Alessandro Mainente

do the backward roll slowly is not a problem, the next steps will be this "unknow" skill without the kip, and planche to BL...

Umm Back Kip with bent arms is an "A", with straight arms it's a B. So it's a legit skill.

Alessandro Mainente

yyeeeeeeesssssss back kip...i had just heard this but i could not remember it..
