homeschoolmom Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 Okay... so... My mom's house is completely empty and I was up there for probably the very last time yesterday. I thought, "I should do a cartwheel in this livingroom-- one last time." Then I thought of this thread and didn't. For the record, I used to cartwheel through the livingroom, much to my mom's dismay. I love it. She hated it.

homeschoolmom Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I mentioned it to HSdad and he said that he could do it-- a roundoff, no less! I said, "Honey, I've known you for over 25 years, and I have never seen you ever do a roundoff. What in the world would make you think you could do one?" He did not have an answer. But he was serious. The last roundoff (or cartwheel, for that matter) that I ever did was back when my daughter was little. As I was flying through the air, I thought, "Well, this was not well thought out." I landed fine, didn't hurt myself (too much), but I decided that was the last one I would ever do in life again.
PhuturePriest Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I don't care what's in them, Tim Tams are freakin' delicious. Americans don't know what they're missing out on. The Australians are geniuses.

What's a roundoff?
homeschoolmom Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 What's a roundoff? Seriously... Google is your friend.

Sorry FP, delicious as they are, there's only one guy whose Flesh and Blood I wanna eat. Anyone else's squicks me out.
PhuturePriest Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 Seriously... Google is your friend. So, essentially, it's a cartwheel?
homeschoolmom Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 A cartwheel with more pop! And enough spring to go into a back handspring. <_<

It's impressive he even knows what a roundoff is. If I tried one, it more than likely would go off like this, Edited April 26, 2013 by Papist
arfink Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Holy cow, what happened? Looks like a catastrophic bearing failure to me, or possibly he snagged a guy wire or something. But I didn't see any wires snap or see the blade hit anything.
