TRAINING DIARY - JANUARY 2022

penche split.jpg

1/19/2022 - Super pleased with this.  I tried this move once about three years ago and found it beyond impossible.  Started working on it two weeks ago and now this.

x-back straddle entry to angel roll-up_Moment (2).jpg

1/11/2022 - Well, this was a proud moment.  Three angel roll-ups from the air using an entry that I figured out for myself.  First started learning this move on 5/1/2020 so it's been a fairly long haul.  So glad that I stuck with it.
