For anyone who's seen my posts about aerials, and wondered what the stuff I'm talking about looks like, I had a friend with me at Open Practice today, and convinced him to take a couple of pictures.....
They're not fancy - just me with a sweaty ponytail, no costumes, practicing pretty low to the ground, but it at least gives some context.
Thigh-side lean, getting ready to go into Rebecca split
And the full split itself. I really need to pay more attention to my hands....
Double foot knot split
Those were the best of the pictures - I wanted to get one of the catcher's lock, mostly because, hey, upside down, but it didn't come out quite right.
So yeah - 10 weeks in, this is me up in the air....
