More Tricking

Just got back from another awesome trick session down the beach with a few Kuk Sool guys. I'm really starting to stick the front somersaults now. Soon be ready for on flat *Gulp*.

Getting close to doing the back somersault unassisted, which is ace! This vid was taken a bit earlier on so I can see where I need work. Lean back more and tuck later. Good height though!

Also added the front flip to my repertoire which I picked up very quickly and am well pleased with ;)  Single handed ones next.

Also started to learn no handed cartwheels but I am struggling a bit with them. Need more practice!

Tricks down the beach

Just finished my first trick session down the beach with a couple of guys from Kuk Sool.

It took a while for me to build up the courage to just throw myself, but once I did I was well away. We started with forward somersaults. Which I think I picked up relatively quickly, then moved on to assisted backwards somersaults, which are quite a bit harder.

After tiring myself out, stretching my abdominals more than they have ever been stretched and getting a LOT of sand in my eyes, it was time to head home for a nice hot bath!

I've always wanted to be able to flip and somersault and perform tricks like this and now I am actually well on my way to accomplishing a life long dream! Of course, I am still a way off yet, though.
