Faithy's Giant

Faith got her giant, it is a huge skill for a gymnast. She is strapped to the bar at her wrists. Then she hangs straight down and swings, until she builds enough momentum to continue going around and around. I wanted to add video, but haven't had a lot of luck. The first time I tried to video, it wouldn't work on my camera, the second time my batteries ran out, and the third time, I got the beginning, the middle disappeared, and got the end. So I have decided to put on a few pictures. It is fun to watch because when she gets to the handstand, she sometimes changes and goes backwards. She usually goes around 5-10 times. Once you get this skill, they never want to be off strap bar.

Lindsey, her team mate gets ready when she comes back down to pull the strap in... helping her to stop.
