All-Star Correct Flying Postions

[ArizonaMVP]

THIS MAKES ME WANT TO CRINGE. (no offense to this girl, this just isn't an arabesque to me. I have this pictures saved on my computer as "cheater" hahaha)

I'm pretty sure that was not intended as an arabesque. Not sure what they called them, but check out 1:34 of this AAA camp video from Hawaii. Our old gym used that move quite a bit.

I watched and I saw the skill you were talking about. I had to stop watching after the pair in the front "faked" the swing through though. Lots of things in that video made me cringe. Starting entire groups and stunting while off the mat was the first thing that got me. But I know your point was the stunt so thank you for posting and pointing out the body position being discussed!

wouldn't this be considered her having her toe being "in" instead of "out" though?

This is good but it could be better she should correct the toe.

I was trying to figure this out too haha. They do a full up stretch, so I think it's just from the momentum-like she's still spinning.

I like this bow because notice the pointed toe :)

again I like it because of her pointed toe :)

only thing that bothers me about this one is the foot she is standing on is slightly turned.

This is what a heel stretch should look like to me.

For arabesques, this to me is wrong. Her chest is low to bring her leg up higher

For heel stretches, is this correct?

i love how effortless that is to him

 

[canttouchthis]

im guessing none of you are fans of Georgia's arabesques? ;)

i love them!

 

[thebowqueen]

I think this is a true "all star" arabesque. Leg as high as possible with the shoelaces facing the front. Her body is tilted forward but her chest is still arched up.

I personally love GA's arabesque's (: They're bent leg isn't to the point where it's horrendous, it kind of looks good. I find that weird hahaha

 

[MyssMyst]

Is this right?

Is that Maison?

 

[arilt95]

I'm fine with the chest being a little low when they all look like this
