Good for you! You should post a video so we can all see. I am working on this too, and every visual I can see helps. Thanks!

Yay for you, jenny and everyone else who has accomplished it! I remember the thigh burn, but it's not an issue anymore, it will get better. :)

Congrats!!! I just got the Superman for the first time this past Monday. I, too, have a super scary bruise on my inner thigh. LOL. Oh well, at least it's winter over here so no one will see it. :)

Well done! I struggled with this move for about 6 months, so I know satisfying it is to finally nail it! Keep up the good work :)
