on the neck with the hand as he tucks and spinning him onto his feet (Fig. 112). A good way to learn the arm and shoulder lift for height is to practice the stunt illustrated in Figure 111. FRONT SOMERSAULT HINTS TO BEGINNERS (continued): There are two kinds of front somersaults. In the more popular form, illustrated in Figure 110, the performer lifts for height and then snaps into the spin. In the other kind (Fig. 113) the performer lands from the hop with his hands beside his ears and throws into a spin, immediately, as he is coming off the ground. This gives a fast, low spin that is useful in performing such a stunt as the front roll with a somersault on the end of it. This variation of the front somersault is called the "chop-throw somersault." |
