In the mini rig version, that split is GORGEOUS!!! Is there a trick to getting the foot locks and the neck wrap at the correct lengths? Thanks!

I might have access to enough height to do the Rebecca drop, but so far my wheel down looks terrible and I really like the split with the neck hang. Could I do that combination ?

Any additional tips or advice for the belay wheeldown & keeping the waist wrap in place?
More specifically, I can find an initial balance with hips and shoulders inline, but once I start rotating, the belay loop sometimes gets a little “gutty” and moves to the abdomen.
Thank you ! -

Well, this might be my last outdoor training session. Mother nature is determined to have BC completely underwater this winter!
This is what I’ve come up with so far- mind the bent leg inversion when I had to fight off my tails 😂https://www.silksstars.com/community/the-heather-feather/media/1717/

Hi friends!
As much as I love wheeldowns (always part of my warming up routine) I was wondering (due to my limited remaining possible trainings) whether it would be OK if I focus on improving my neck hang splits in belay as I propose in the below video? (without the wheeldown)https://www.silksstars.com/community/yvanlp/media/1728/
Thanks a lot in advance!
Greetings,

Hi team. Loving this month thanks Dari! Two questions: 1. Do we roll left or right as we roll down? Rolling right is super fast and slackens quickly, rolling left is more secure/tight but hardly moves. 2. Any tips for quick/unnoticeable ways to get the faux foot lock off the heel? I’m having to get in there and peel it off my heel before I point my toe and easily unwind the remaining wrap. Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
Happy to finally be able to post a training video this month (less training opportunities) 🙂.
This still needs a ton of work but this is probably my best attempt at the weeldown (which tells you something 😅). All advices greatly appreciated!-

Thank you so much for your advices!
I am really working on those straight legs, that s really am issue for me. I noticed that as soon as I get tired, I tend to neglect to focus on it while I move in the air. My feet are also not cooperating too much and when I push my point I cramp. Do you have any insights on those issues that could help me improve?
The Netherlands is back on lockdown so won’t have access to a height ceiling anymore. I ll try to get my hand on a 3 meters one and give a shot at the neck hang split.
Thank against for your support and for this awesome community that gets me through those crazy times ❤️ -
Hi!
Oh man, bummer about going back into lockdown, I am so sorry. We aren’t sure yet what is going to happen here.The tired/straight leg thing is so real! Also- sometimes my feet cramp too. Do you do any ground pre work, Like ballet class/floor barre/pilates? That type of work will definitely inform your muscles for the air. Also if you’re starting to feel tired you can purposefully use a develope’ (bent to straight) action, to clean things up. I hope this helps. Take care, and Happy Holidays!

https://www.silksstars.com/community/susi/media/1733/ Hi! Here it is the latest version… cleaned yesterday at lunch time 🤣 I add some details and finally found out how to handle the silks in order not to be tangled … now I wish had more time to make it smooth… let’s see. SilksStars keeps me motivated and focus, out of covid-zone, keeping my sanity while not seeing my family for 2 years… anyway, wish you a Merry Christmas and keep safe and happy! 😘😘

Here is Instagram link to final mini-rig submission. Still have trouble with getting video to successfully upload in profile.

I wish I could put a disclaimer with my upload for this month that I joined a few days ago and only had like an hour to practice this sequence before filming – in which I could NOT figure out where to hook my footlocked knee to take it off bc I didn’t realize you had to fully rotate. So not posting here bc there were some hiccups with getting my wrap on, awkward hand placements, and hesitation. But a super fun sequence and glad I still got it in!

Thank you for your encouragement after posting my videos!! This challenge has shown me I need to work on my windmills/wheel downs and keeping those legs straight like you say! I’ve actually come up with a great way to work on that. I posted a not so great video for this month but love the song and am having more fun with it. Thanks again!

This is the cleanest version I was able to get, although I feel it’s not my best and I want to clean it up even more. This was unfortunately yet another month I wasn’t able to give the sequence the attention I wanted. I tried to merge the two versions by adding a neckhang split with wheeldown. Getting the footlock off before the belay and the split weren’t as clean as I’d like, and I almost never do wheeldowns to the right (so I was happy to work on them, but it was a challenge, especially in the belay). Even though I don’t love wheeldown in this video, they somehow got even worse after this take. There’s a lot here I’m proud of, but I look forward to polishing it further! November submission
