Cody half-twist

Explore the technique for creating a twist in a Cody and its impact on back full outs and Yurchenko twists

description

The trampoline is an essential teaching tool in gymnastics. It helps you to save time and energy in training. With trampoline work, progress in acrobatic skills is much quicker, and the learning that happens is far more solid.

One of the most important skills for making the most of all of these benefits is the Cody twist. It's the foundation of all backward double rotations with a twist in the second salto, like the back full out, and the Yurchenko twist.

This entire tutorial is dedicated to the creation of the first half-twist. It follows on from the training on the tucked Cody, which you'll find in the Gymneo training library. We'll follow it with another training guide dedicated to the second half of the twist.

Thanks to these training materials, you'll be able to understand and teach one of the most important skills for any gymnast aiming for complex acrobatic elements.

By the end of this training, you'll know how to initiate a longitudinal rotation without a push-off, and without breaking form. You'll open the door to the world of double rotations with twists in the second phase!

We hope you enjoy the training.

About the trainer

Angelo Ritorto

High Performance Coach - Expert trainer in Women's Artistic Gymnastics

GymneoTV creator and trainer

Author of the books "Let's Teach Gymnastics"

Truly passionate about gymnastics from the age of 11, Angelo quickly progressed through the ranks as a High Performance coach preparing gymnasts for national selection. First in Marseille, at Pôle France, for 15 years. By turns in charge of the 10 - 12 year olds and the 12 - 14 year olds, his work focused on the preparation of female gymnasts from their beginnings at the center up to their participation in international competitions. A period rich in experience which saw the emergence of a number of gymnasts, 17 of whom were selected to represent France, and several of whom participated in the Olympic Games, and European and World Championships. He then moved to Belgium where he was tasked by the Francophone Gymnastics Federation to train High Performance coaches, bolster the processes for detection and preparation of talented gymnasts, and put in place a training system for coaches. This is how GymneoTV was born. A trainer since the beginnings of his professional career, whether for future Brevet coaches or for private organizations, he never separated education from training. He posesses a genuine passion for transmitting his knowledge to gymnastics coaches. A proponent of technique and precision, and forerunner in the delivery of online education in artistic gymnastics, it is principally through his books and his training materials for GymneoTV that he now shares his expertise throughout the world (in over 100 countries).
