Cartweeling over the box!

For the past few weeks we have been going to the Christchurch School of Gymnastics every Wednesday. One of the stations was cartwheeling over the box. This requires balance and speed because if you go slow you will have to have good control. We were scored for some of the skills including the skill in the picture The best you could get is a 4, and I got all 4s!!!!
Overall I had a great time, I hope it is as good next year!

This is me jumping into a cylinder. For this you need to jump up

and forward a little as well as keeping your legs up,

until you land of course. We got marked on this and lots of
other things but the best score you could get was a 4+. My
best was a 4 which is pretty good, but my worst was a 3- and I think that is pretty bad. Oli

This term we have been learning gym at QEII. We had five sessions and the last one was the best. The teachers were really helpful. I can't wait to do it next year to learn more skills. My favourite part was the pit. I did a flip into the pit and it was really fun. I hope we can do more flips next year!! I got six fours which was my highest score and one three minus which was my lowest score but all the rest were in between. These pictures show me using focusing skills. To do the cartwheel that I have just down in one of these photos you need to be able to balance and hold yourself up easily.
