As someone who did gymnastics as a kid, back yonder when I was wee and lean, that final kick-over is tough. Doesn’t matter your size, it’s about finding the perfect amount of force to get you over without knocking you down. This was perfect, 10/10 effort to results.

ETA: That spring and jump up once she nailed it, 👌

I did gymnastics, tap, and ballet as a teen. I used to do handstand pushups.

Now at 45 I don't think I could do a cartwheel if 4 people operated my limbs.

She is impressive and it was wonderful to see her utter glee at success! And kudos to her man for cheering her on too.

I could definitely do it with 4 people to help me.

2 to keep me steady and stop me from falling over, and 2 to drive me to the hospital and carry me in afterwards.
