NOTES:
• Here the aim is for the tummy to land where the feet took off. This is achieved by pushing feet backwards on take-off and lifting UP into the move.
• The second front-drop here shows how the arms are lifted up into the move which is not shown in the first front-drop.
• A common mistake is for people to dive forwards into a front-drop which can lead to injury. Diving forwards is prevented by lifting shoulders up and pushing feet backwards.
• When coming out of the front landing in the second front-drop here, the arms have been lifted upwards. This is technically correct and can help to lift the body up straight but is not an essential part of the move.
• On landing it is important that the blue mat in front is looked at - keeping the head up. Failing to do this would result in landing on the face!
