here are my progress over the straddle L, i admit that i really really really hate this skill, i can do it better on the floor then on the pbars. since the last seminar after very different exercises for manage the split ad pancake..the compression is finally better then before, i noticed that expecially if i put the hand as in the second pic, before there was no way to lift my hips higher.

Nice progress

Would you mind sharing how you got there?

This is NOT one of my favorite skills either.

How is your foot anyway?

hi mats, yes of course, i can send to you a pm..

my foot, mmmm something bad something great. depends on the movement. i can walk, run and jump but  i'm recovering the rom day by day using some proprioceptive tablets. in some stretching positions wich are the best to stretch quadratus lomborum (as an example) i feel great tension over my ankle so i need time. i've developed some right knee pain because i usually put more weight on it (and this is the knee with the injury). i hope to heal one day....
