khan replied to the discussion 'Help with with this move? (Cross Isolation Turn??)'"What she's calling the cross isolation turn is more commonly referred to as an isolation barrel roll. I find it's easier when you put your hands together rather than have them on opposite sides of the hoop."

"pointing my elbows towards my ribcage sounded really weird at first, but then I actually tried it and it helped quite a bit. I still can't keep my hoop perfectly level, but the awkward straining is reduced."

Help with with this move? (Cross Isolation Turn??)
I''ve been trying to get this down for a while now. I wasn't sure what to call it until so I was unsuccessful in searching the forums for it. But then I found this video. She calls it a cross isolation turn, which I had never heard before (is there another name for it?) I get the concept of the move. And I'm so close to doing it, just not quite there. In the video and everywhere else I've seen it done, it looks like the person doesn't have to bend backwards at all when the hoop is behind…See More
