[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you are saying that you really want your daughter to do this? (the Korbut flip). How much of this is you being a dance mom and pushing your kid to do dangerous maneuvers? This is another concussion waiting to happen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZYPcdj_wn4[/quote] Love the Korbut, tried it myself back in the day (on low bar, not high). It's not that hard actually, but I'm pretty sure it's not "legal" under the current rules. It's also not that dangerous, provided one is capable of doing a back flip. And there is such a wide gulf between low-mid level competition and elite. Injuries happen at all levels, but for the most part, they should be relatively minor. I'd be more worried about concussions/torn ligaments in soccer than in gymnastics. [/quote]
