Question:What is that jump called when your back leg is bent and your front leg is straight and your head is tilted back towards your back bent leg?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: What is that jump called when your back leg is bent and your front leg is straight and your head is tilted back towards your back bent leg?

At my school, we call it a back stag jump (seeing as how your back leg is bent) with an arch.
If your doing it as a leap it is called a back stag leap!
If it's turning, I've heard it called numerous things:
Turning back stag leap,
Capezio,
Calypso,
etc.

I think the names vary based on your teacher's training and where you're located!

I hope this helped! =D

I am seventeen. I started when I was five. Report It
