Good Luck next week!
This week's tip: Go as slow as possible. Going slow demonstrates that you have control. The slower you go, usually, the higher your score!
Kipnus:
Start in a good layout, and draw your knees to your chest.
Make the smallest tuck possible with your body.
Tuck your chin as you tip over, and stop tipping once your shins are perpendicular to the surface.
Slowly straighten one leg to a Heron postilion.
Hold it as HIGH as you can.
Sink slowly, trying to stay straight on the way down.
End with a back tuck.
Porpoise:
Start in a good layout.
As you begin your pike, keep your feet together and your rear end at the surface.
Hold your pike.
Begin to lift your legs as slow as you can. It's really hard, but the slower the better!
Keep your feet together and legs locked.
Once in your vertical hold it as long as possible. Don't sink right away.
Sink slowly and end with a back tuck.
Walkover, Front:
Start in a good layout. Feet together and heels at surface!
As you begin your pike, keep your feet together and your rear end at the surface.
Hold your pike.
Begin to lift one leg as slow as you can, and try to stay really high.
Once your are in your splits, hold them and try to pull them as flat as possible.
Slowly begin your walkover, lift your leg very slowly, and after your arc, keep it going slow.
Feet together in your surface arch.
From your surface arch to your layout go very slow, and remember to replace your hips with your head.
Hold a good layout! Remember: It's the last impression!
Ballet Leg, Submarine:
Start in a good layout. Chin back, looking at the sky, not your chest.
Slowly bend your leg to a bent knee position. Get as much of your leg out of the water as possible.
Stop and hold the Bent Knee when your thigh is perpendicular to the surface.
Slowly lift to the Ballet Leg, without letting your thigh move.
Lock your leg and hold if you can.
Slowly ease up on your scull, and allow yourself to sink to your ankle.
Stay in a good Ballet Leg postilion with your body as flat as a board.
Rise back up, making sure you're still straight. Hold Ballet Leg.
Lower to a Bent Knee, thigh remaining still.
Straighten out to layout, getting your hips to the surface for a great ending layout!
