Doubleleg

Type of Trick: Invert / Kick / Position

Prerequisites: Feilong, Pop 360, Singleleg

Abbreviation: DL

Alias: Misty

Description: A trick in which a person jumps off of both feet, and executes a spinning outside crescent and an inside crescent at the same time.

The Doubleleg is identical to the Feilong in terms of take off, aerial rotation, and landing. The only difference is the way both feet come up and over the body. In a Feliong, it comes up one at a time. In a Doubleleg, both legs come up at the same time, mirroring each other as they sweep through the target.

The moment both feet are outstretched in front of the performer, in a piked position with the feet pointing straight up, is the most important moment in the Doubleleg. This single frame is known as "the doubleleg position", and must be entered and exited in the same way as the standard Doubleleg to constitute what it is to do a Doubleleg.

History: Called a "Dupla Armada" in Capoeira, the Doubleleg is one of those tricks you have to have (like the 540).
