Half Twist to Back Drop

NOTES:
• Here the feet are pushed backwards and shoulders are lifted almost like going into a front-drop. You can see on the video that the eyes actually look at the bed on take-off as if ‘looking for the front landing’.
• Whilst the feet are pushed back and shoulders are lifted, a 180 degrees turn is done in order to land on the back.
• During the fall onto the back the hips start to bend (keeping legs straight) just as in a normal back-drop.
• It is ensured that this move is lifted UP into rather than diving forwards so as to land comfortably.
• The photo in the video illustrates well the ‘lifting up into’ the move as well as the arrows showing the direction of the feet and the twist.
• And back up to feet as if from a normal back-drop.
