They worked fine for me! :) You're a really great tumbler!! I feel weird giving you a tip because you're way better than me but when I do whips I always circle my arms slightly to the side and then throw them back next to my ears for either another whip or a back handspring. It helps me maintain my speed and keep my body position straight. You obviously don't need to do it because you can tumble out of your whips just fine but I just thought I'd share because it really made a difference when I started doing it! Hope it helps :)

i was going to say squeeze a little tight in your fulls and doubles, & whips (ankles/legs) but then i saw the 2nd video and saw that you did just that (brandon video) youre great tumbler keep it up!

really, you're a great tumbler. stretching out your handsprings a little more could help give you more power if you're looking for it.

your exactly like the boy on my team lol hes an amazing tumbler but he doesn't tighten his whole body and for his tucks/layouts/ whips he doesn't lock out his arms in the proper position. If you stop from keeping your arms loose and putting them in the proper position (hard to explain on here lol) then you can get a lot more speed and length from everything.

oh and 1 more thing I noticed! You look down when you are trying to land some of your tumbling. Look up because its forcing you to land lower than you want. :) hope these help

Alright, I deff. need to get back into doing everything technically correct. Ive gotten so comfertable with my tumbling that it has become too soft and almost sloppy.

I always yelled at for this, but dont tumble flat footed stay on your toes especially in whips.

I could only imagine how powerful and crazy your tumbling would be if you did everything technically correct. lol
