Puck Jump
Sign in to mark this one off. Every trick you land is kept, and only you can see it.
The lowdown
A jump that shows a shape halfway between a tuck and a pike, with the knees bent and a little apart and the hips folded.
Puck is the name for a shape halfway between a tuck and a pike. The same shape turns up later in somersaults.
Tips
Jump straight first and make the shape near the top. Lift your knees up and a little apart with your hips folded, looser than a full tuck, then open out early so your feet are back under you.
Why it isn't working3 common mistakes
Lifting the knees as you leave the bed. Reach up first; the shape comes at the top of the jump.
Pulling into a full tuck. Leave the knees a little apart and the shape half open; that is what makes it a puck.
Chest dropping forward. Stay upright and bring your knees up to you.

Where it sits
Why it's Bronze: Bronze, because it is a looser, half open tuck and no harder than the tuck jump it sits beside.
