    slipping down the pole.  Is it my grip? This is a tough one for me.

    Pink…how are you holding you bottom hand?  Your thumb should be facing up and you should be sitting on it.

    Pink….I just had one of my local girls that was having the same issue and she was doing that same thing.  You can thank MommaBear on here.

    Who knew sticking your thumb up your butt could fix the problem LMAO

    Every time I get this now, I can't help but giggle cause in the back of my head I'm thinking "thumb in the butt, thumb in the butt."

    Another thing Chem taught me that night – Butterfly – for that one I just have to remember to stick my head way down in there and "smell my armpit" and I have perfect form LOL  

    Yes, I have an usual learning style.  Once I get upside down I can't grasp right from left or which is the strong arm, so I use silly sayings like "thumb in the butt" and "smelly pit".

    One tip: Really think about contracting your abs and lifting your legs up rather than 'sitting' on your wrist. It helps to control the move by not putting all the weight and emphasis on your wrist.

    One of my friends told me to "think about giving myself a proctology exam" when I was struggling with it.  So I know I think about violating myself and BAM wrist sit is there!
