From my previous discussions i'm posting the thread about the 'Splitting'...but now, let's get more further and we'll talk now about the 'Tumbling'. Well, well, well guys here's my question... Can you do the 'Tumbling'? :-)

That was when I was a kid, not now. I am afraid of it now as I am aging. But you have not told us whether you do,huh?

It is cool that you can still tumble. Keep practising and don't let it slip away from you because of aging like me. But be careful while doing this. Thanks for your response.

Yeah I can, but only through using 'Chinese Garter' as we used to play it also but I guess until now I can still do it. :-)

Now if you were talking about tumbling down steps, I have perfected that art! But no, I can not do gymnastic maneuvers of any kind. I think I would end up in a body cast. LOL

Hello add_im!(",) I am proud to say that I can do tumbling when I was younger but, now I don't think so because I gained more weight. I can still remember the times when as a child I like to play Chinese garter and if it so high we can do tumbling to reach it. I can't split. I guess I am not that flexible.(",) Great day! Nice avatar!

That's great of you! Nowadays I believe it's only few people can do it unless one is studying gymnastics...then im sure it's much more easier to them. Yeah, splitting is more difficult though one needs to be flexible enough in order to do it successfully. :-) Thanks for complimenting about the avatar :-)

Yes, I could, but I may have to practice a little. I used to do Aikido, a martial art, and we learned how to roll into falls - you tumble over forwards tuck your head in, and land right back on your feet again. I used to really enjoy this and could even do it on concrete without hurting myself. :-)
