    Can I do the candlestick at age 76?

    Community Answer
    It depends on how flexible you are, and if you think you can do it. Do stretches beforehand, really working on your back to ensure comfort. If you are 76 and doing this, you're in great shape.

    How do I roll without hurting my wrists when I land?
    Community Answer
    Make sure you stretch out your wrists prior to your roll. Stretch them gently forwards, to the side, and backwards. This will prevent any injury. Then, while you are in the dive roll, place your hands out to the side, not to the front, so you are not rolling over your hands.

    How do I do a 360 noscope?
    Community Answer
    Put your legs together. Use your thigh to leave the floor and resist gravity. Start enabling the rotation by moving your upper body and then your lower body.

    How do I not hurt my bottom on the landing?
    Community Answer
    Make sure that you are tucking as you roll up. If you do happen to hurt yourself, make sure to put ice on it.

  • Question
    Is this safe to do on hard surfaces?
    Community Answer
    If it is your first few times, then no. Even if you are advanced, it produces a hard impact that hurts. Use a soft surface so you can learn without getting hurt, or you'll shy away from wanting to keep trying it.
