ramon abbreviated barrel roll

(needs photos/video)

this is the most parsimonious ramon setup i know. if you blink you can miss someone doing it.

from basic stand or some other way of standing on the fabric, reach high with tango hand and then slip head and shoulders through to get the fabric in a crucifix across your back. now you're standing on the fabric and you also have a crucifix. the stand is important because the next step is an invert and unless you're hella strong you'll need both hands holding high for the invert; without the stand you'd need one low to hold the crucifix.

so bring your lower hand up so you're holding high with both hands, and invert and hook a knee over the fabric; as you invert catch the tail on top of your legs so the fabric completes a loop around your body. and you're done.

uses/builds on: basic stand,tango hand,crucifix,same side knee hook or opposite side knee hook
