Raion is right haha =p but ya it's interesting how he does those call hops... We have to do them for warm ups... Now we are doing call hops to eagle haha they are horrible =p

 

Anyway I think it's interesting that he did a "ono" you don't see many of those in men's gymnastics. I want to learn one of them but for right now I'm just getting healed up from a stress fracture and eagle giants are one of the last things I will be able to do. Oh well, I only have 2 weeks left until I should be fully healed

I use to do cal hops too to get warmed up. They were scary to learn, but really fun and simple once I got the hang of it. I once tried to do cal hop to full spin (only posting on one arm), needless to say not a good choice.

 

I also liked his tap for the ono. It makes it seem like it would make it easier.
