   Here is my video on studio veena...the handspring is at 2:09. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/5316e28f-aa48-40dc-b57f-57620a9aa0eb You can dead lift it...but I like the little back-walkover look of this one. I am doing a cup grip, but you can do a split/true grip as well... and with a split/true grip you can go over to a bow and arrow type move (I will record it this week for you). Notice, you start on the back side of the pole and go up and over the other side of the pole. If it is a new leg free rotational move, I have gotten used to slowing my descent with a foot (and that it how it can sometimes become a bow and arrow;-))

   lololol this post is awesome! We have all been there struggles of the cartwheel mount. Try letting one leg lead the other, if both legs aren't up at the same time you may be able to avoid the leprechaun
