Tuck top planche ???

we have been looking at the new NDP and wondered what it is can anybody explain as we might know it as something else !!!!

also in the Grade 2 Choreo does the 360 spin immediate 360 spin mean the spins will be in opposite directions ? we just want to make sure before we start teaching it !!!!

Halyey i only saw the new NDP today and my and my coach were wondering the same things......

i think i know what a tuck top planche is thou but its difficult to explain....
as for the 360spin, 360 spin i can only assume its one leg spin then the next leg spin

[hayley easen]

does anyone else have a clue?????!!!!


is the tuck top planche where you balance on your hands with ur legs tucked to the side?

[Sue]

balance on your hands, knees tucked between your arms - but ideally the back should be flat and should be horizontal or slightly raised and the hip angle should be 90 degrees (at least that is what it is in men's gymnastics!).

I've just had my daughter read Sue's description and she says it's pretty accurate. She said it's like the kettle/frog balance only with your knees inside your arms and not outside. Not being a coach I have no idea ..............:p
