Pak salto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pak, or Pak salto, is a release move performed on the uneven bars in women's artistic gymnastics. The move starts with the gymnast facing the low bar, swinging forwards towards the low bar and performing a backward salto to catch the low bar.

[edit] Variations

The Pak salto can also be performed with a full twist, which increases its difficulty levels.
