Does anyone remember having the ability to hang upside down by just their feet only from the jungle gym bars? (not the backs of your knees either)

ooh that does sound like fun. Of course, that wasn't that long ago...hehe... I could always do it with my knees but never my feet. I think maybe my feet were too big or something.
When I was younger I did gymnastics so I spent a lot of time hanging from bars..lol
Boy, wish I was that flexible now. I just started Yoga so maybe that will help ;)

I don't recall anyone being able to do it by their feet. I only remember using my knees and loving it. But I also remember not being able to figure out how to keep my dress from falling down and exposing my underwear! "I see London, I see France, I see Audrey's underpants!" It never stopped me though!

We have a metal bar on our front porch the grandkids use to do that with. They hang like monkeys. All 3 in a row. They're too cute with their hair all hanging down and undies shinin'!

Hey Jena Yoga, where have you been? Aren't you the one with the VW?
