Scorpio Handstand – wrist problems
I invert on the left side of the pole (just as Veenas does in the video to this move), and when doing the Scorpio HS I feel like the wrist of my left (outer) hand can't hold my weight at all, it feels somehow close to breaking …
But I can do a normal handstand without having this problem! Do you have any idea what it could be that I'm doing wrong??

I put my hands wider than a normal handstand when I do this. Otherwise I have the same feeling that my hands can't hold me, and I have strong handstands. You're talking about the one all the Bespun girls do, where your hips are on the other side of the pole from your shoulders, right?

I guess, yes – it's exactly the same as Veena does in her video! One side of the hip is behind the pole, the shoulder of the same side ( right side in my case) is on the opposite side of the pole. The other side of the body (left side in my case) is free in the room, no pole-contact.

🙂 I just saw Veena's advice. It's much more specific than mine, haha. Mine is pretty vague, but I wanted to let you know you're not crazy, I had the exact same feeling when I first tried it!
