Front uprise straddle cut to handstand

C value skill

• A tap similar to a reverse hecht tap initiates the motion. From an upper arm tap swing the gymnast must initiate the tap then immediately throw their heels back and hips and chest up.
• Immediately following the tap the gymnast must straddle and aggressively throw the bars back. Then they must reach forward quickly to establish support as soon as possible.
