The Comms techs have had the most weaners gathering around their building over the past few weeks and now we know why... They've been training the little guys to do tricks.

| The Preparation |
This is Beatrice. She has been practising all of about 40 seconds to perform the back-flip in pike position. Let's see if she lands it.

| The Dismount |
And there she goes, with the unusual method of using her face as the pivot point, rear flippers out as far as they can be stretched. But wait! Her left-hand flipper is tucked underneath, she'll lose a couple of points for technique there.

| The Finish |
There it is folks, Beatrice has landed her first back-flip. She's a little off to the side but it seems the judges are being lenient. That's an 8/10 - well done that weaner!
Gymnastics!?! Wow what an Island. I knew I was missing out! (I'm also pretty impressed that you knew it was in a pike position.)
ReplyDeleteAnd my god those eyes are huge, how can you keep from giving it a bit of a cuddle?
It's a very difficult thing to do, but we don't cuddle the weaners. If they approach us, well, that's a completely different matter ;)
