    About this ebook

    This vintage book contains a 57-page introductory guide to gymnastics using flying rings. Flying rings refers to a gymnastics event similar to still rings, with the exception being that the person grips a pair of hanging rings and swings while performing various stunts. For each position dealt with in this guide there is a description, explanation, and instructions; as well as a photograph of the manoeuvre being executed by a professional. This volume is ideal for beginners or those looking for a handy reference guide. Contents include: “Uprise”, “Circle into Rest”, “The Dislocation”, “Backward Cut Off”, “Forward Cut Off and Catch”, “Forward Cut and Catch”, “End of Forward String”, “Back Flyaway”, “Front Flyaway”, “Lever Above Rings”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
