fallen angel

Apparatus: Trapeze
Level: Level 2
Description:

The name of this move will forever be debated throughout circus history. This move is essentially a single ankle hang with the hand on the bar. The characteristic element of this move is that the hips are rotated towards the ground. In inverted angel, the move gets "inverted" by turning the hips towards the ceiling. (you can see where the debate comes into play -- how is it inverted if you are turning towards the ceiling?!) Well, that's how the story goes...
