You can switch your legs in the stag position, that's an element by itself. Or, I believe, you can start in stag, demonstrate the position with both your legs together and then land forward on your knees. _________________ Bring on the wall!

I'm not able to do it because I'm not able to perform the split position on that element... I can do the split, but, when I try to do it in the elbows, my legs are < 180°... So I can't put that element on my routine. |

Switching your legs in the stag position is not a flexibility in itself. The D value flex requires a switch in split position, the E value is either two legs straight forward into a kneeling arch or the switch in split position to a kneeling arch, and the F value is a rotation into switch in stag position. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/Tahnee2612 |

Oh, now I have understood! I was thinking stag=split...
Anyway, I think that the value of that flexibility elements is strange... For me, the F is the easiest, I can also do the E, but the D is impossible, because it's very difficult to perform a split in that way! |

I have another question: for this flexibility I need to bend by back over the vertical position? If I read the description it looks yes, but not all of the gymnasts perform this flexibility bending very much the back...

I think that you could get credit just performing the normal arch position, like the one of arch to chest balance perfomed by many gymnasts, there's no need to touch your head with your butt, or force your back unnecessarily |

Ok, thanks.
And can I beat the clubs during this element? Or is it a static element? |

Tapping is only valid in dynamic elements, so leaps and pivots. You could do hand circles, or mills overhead. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/Tahnee2612 |

So I can't do them, not even if I start them during the rotation? |

All tapping would have to be done in the rotation - that's if you can do it in rotations with flexibilities, I'm not completely sure... _________________ http://www.youtube.com/Tahnee2612 |

Question...
Could a fouette flexibility be used in a combination?
Example:
Front walk over to back scale+ fouette flexibility (w/o change of support)

They would still be regarded as two separate flexibilities. You can only combine leaps and pivots. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/Tahnee2612 |

So that means Aliya Garaeva's flexibility combination of
back walk over to penche/front scale, legs in split + half run of trunk to backscale, full rotation
1:16
is considered as two separate elements since both are flexibility difficulties? _________________ "Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius."
