Two-Handed Departure

Trick ID: 170

Description

Two-Handed Departure

Hold the bar with both hands (on most rigs you will probably need someone to hold you). Make a small jump and put both feet in front of you off the platform. This is the most basic departure and recommended for beginners because they can make sure they have a good grip with both hands before leaving.
