“Fixing my hair cause it magically makes the skill better” lol 😝 so true though ❤

As a gymnast I LOVE your videos you are so amazing!!😁💗💗

[leodegas]

First time watching your videos. I think this is awesome and brave of you.

I like that you were smart and didn't push yourself until you got hurt.

I'm sure the original person who did this, didn't get it in a few hours or even the first day.

Good luck. 👍

It feels really good when younger kids are watching you practice something and their mouths are like 😮😮😮 😂

once you figure out the back hip circle, it clicks. definitely easier from a handstand, just try to bend your body in half so your legs are going over the beam by the time your chest is under the beam. nice work so far! you got this!

Sophia you are so good at gymnastics! You’ve inspired me so much!❤

[kjeracarroll]

You are a beast! I love how you are able to watch videos and then practice just a bit and execute them! Can’t wait to see an update on this one! You look amazing!

[alxr.]

I used to do these for fun, during goof off gym time. The momentum of the back handspring is what makes the back hip circle work. Just gotta go for it. Good luck 🍀

I could never do something like that she has so much confidence!!😘😘

[Lil_ethiopian_crip]

You inspire me so much to try new things in gymnast your so amazing i would love ❤ meet you ❤ 💕

Its a bit late, but something I noticed is that Natalia had more room to work with. She swung her legs out quite a bit which gave her momentum to get around, and had more room underneath to continue the momentum (she let go of the top of the beam by the time she was upside down lol). So, while scary to think about, if you did it on an isolated beam that was also higher up (or no pads on the ground...but thats probably not a good idea lol), that could help make it work.

Excellent job regardless :D

It's called "Death Loop"? Seriously?

That's some serious 'guy energy' to hear, "Death Loop" and think... "Cool. I could totally do that!"

30X years ago I did a spontaneous backflip... In the bush... while shooting paintballs at guys who were shooting paintballs at me. It was my first backflip. My last backflip. And having totally survived uninjured... the best possible backflip I could ever do.

It was NOTHING! I didn't set out to do a backflip. Didn't have the pressure of having someone filming me to immortalize for all time the failure or success of my backflip. All I had was the: "Whoa!... Did that dude just backflip while shooting at us!!???" To spur me on to for all you know, fictional greatness.

This is fifth level awesome!

It’s totally ok if you can’t do it the first day just let yourself breath and love itself!💗

[XxIts_SavxX]

I swear I wish i was even a 1/7 as good of a gymnast as you UGHH how do you make it look so easy

[greenmanjnj]

Start with handstand to clear hip on bars - that’s more what you’re going for. Think clear hip, not hip circle. (Yes, I trained these a time ago, and my coach said to think of it more as a clear hip.) You don’t want to bang your hips into the bar, it stops your momentum around. Do more of a clear hip around using your arms to guide you around the beam. As you come around to toes pointing to the ceiling, switch your arm grip while piking down slightly.

So handstand to clear hip on bars to get the mind right, then the SAME move on the beam. Don’t think, just go handstand to clear hip. You got this!!

[chiberjuberdourado]

Well that was super scary to watch! Gymnast are incredibly brave!

[cameronhipsher]

I love how you just get right back up again if you fail
