Lunge

Lunge

A position often used to initiate and/or land a tumbling or control skill like a cartwheel. The lunge position is recognisable because the front leg is bent and the back leg is straight. In general, the arms are by the ears and the body position is in a straight bodyline from the tips of the fingers to the foot on the floor.
