GYMNASTICS!!!!




What some people don't know about me is that i'm a gymnast i do it even my friends do it. Well only me and hannah do it but sometimes my other friends try. Well this is my friend Charlotte. We call her Charly for short. She is doing a cartwheel here. Se we got really bored that day so we took my camera and just took shots.




Here I am doing a front walkover. A very simple trick I know but I haven't done something so simple like that since I was 9. So I try. The only proble here is that my leg is bent. Atleast I got over. Alot of people try that but they can never do it. I could never ever tell you the reason why until now. In order to do a front walkover you must bend your back as far back as you can, then shift all your weight forward then you go over. That simple.





Now i'm doing a back handspring. That's pretty darn cool huh? Well I learned how to do one of those things when I was 5 years old. I know right. I'm so awesome I know. Just kidding. I don't normally think of myself that way. A backhandspring is one of those tricks where technique really matters and so does courage. You can't just sit and wait you have to just go for it. That's how I do it anyway.







Here I am doing a STANDING handspring tuck. How many people can do it. Well actually to be honest I recently learned that I could do that on grass. I mean I used to do a standing tuck but I never knew that I could do it by myself. I always had to have a spot. However I learned that I could do a standing handspring tuck by myself standing. Then I just thought I could do it on the grass and I landed it perfectly. Yeah that's right.

This is the best trick I can do on grass. I can do a layout by myself on a mat. Anyway, what can I say I am a born gymnast. Just ask my doctor. She said I will be great at that. Also I'm built for it I'll only grow to 5' 2". That's short. Oh back to the trick this is a running roun-off tuck. I'm the best at it. Yeah I'm bragging. But we all brag if you can do something amazing. Don't we? Well that's all I have to say, BYE
