ok so sometimes when im in the air i miss grabs, but im pretty flexible so i think im just retarded hahaha. anyway feet together, legs straight, i can put my fingers flat on the ground, but not quite my palms flat on the ground
sadly i am extremely inflexible.....i can touch my hads to about half way down my shin. idk if its cuz i have long legs or something but its really bad...
except my threads have a purpose, your threads are essentially
"why am i an idiot?"
"one of my boots with booster straps and custom footbeds hurts so im gonna make a thread when i didnt even check under the footbed. please someone tell me so i can learn to turn 176's!!!"
im not flexible worth shit but I can grab pretty well. Flexibility helps with grabs no doubt, but it has to do a lot more with muscle memory, technique, control (which ties in to technique and memory), and some good strength (generally).
I can touch my palms fully to the ground and I don't have short legs. I need to work myself back to being able to do the splits though. Pretty flexible in other stretches also.
