She Flips! She Turns!

4 months of practice and I think I got 'er down. I was convinced, until last week, that flip turns could only be mastered by those that learned them young. Then suddenly, it just "clicked" as they say. It's not perfect but good enough to cut off some time and not dread it each time I come to wall.

No flailing arms! No feet missing the wall! No water up the nose! And a good glide to boot.

And the best news is that I can finally do these consistently without getting dizzy or falling apart.

Oh and did you notice my rocking rubix cube cap?
