Right now, we're going to show you a different aspect of the high bar; it's a called in-bar work. Unlike giants that go up and around the bar, most of these skills are going to be done in what we call in-bar, where the bar is close to the hips. He's going to come into the hip and open up to the hand. Right now, Michael is going to show us what we call an endo and a Weiler kip. Both of these are fairly basic skills, but they are not easy by any means. So, Michael, let's see what you got. He's going to start in what we call the undergrip. He's going to cast the handstand. He's going to go ahead and do a giant in, so he can find the top. He's going to drop in. There's an endo. As you could see, he straddles his legs and goes around the bar. This is a very difficult skill even though it is considered a basic. This is a Weiler kip. [DEMONSTRATION] Again, very difficult even though it's still considered basic. Very nice execution. Michael has a long, lean body and he uses it to his advantage.
