Forward Twisting Layouts (Front Fulls)
The required skills to have before attempting a front full include: front handspring, fronttuck, as well as front layout.
Execution Height is extremely important in execution of the skill. The skill can be executed from a front handspring, or a run. In attempting the skill with a front handspring, the handspring must be fast, strong, and land with your hips slightly in front of your feet. From a run, you will need to punch the ground with your feet, as in a front tuck. Once the skill has been executed, and height has been gained, you can begin to flip. Once in the middle of the flip, you can twist, however it is crucial in this skill to twist at the correct time. The knowing of correct time is obtained by attempted execution.

Famous quotes containing the word twisting:
“Farmers in overalls and wide-brimmed straw hats lounge about the store on hot summer days, when the most common sound is the thump-thump-thump of a hound’s leg on the floor as he scratches contentedly. Oldtime hunters say that fleas are a hound’s salvation: his constant twisting and clawing in pursuit of the tormentors keeps his joints supple.”
—Administration in the State of Arka, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
