Cast (gymnastics)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A cast is a basic skill on uneven bars, parallel bars, rings, or horizontal bar in artistic gymnastics.[1][2] From the front hang, a gymnast pikes (allowing the knee to touch the bar) and slides upwards to a handstand. Some gymnasts may perform the move with straddled legs.
