This Gymnastics skill is called a Manna - Manna Do Doo Do Do Do
If you know you know 😂 The manna is an advanced gymnastics skill performed on the still rings. It is considered one of the most difficult strength skills in men's gymnastics.
To perform a manna, the gymnast hangs upside down from the still rings, Parallel Bars or floor, maintaining a straight, inverted handstand position while gripping the rings turned out 180 degrees. The gymnast then slowly lowers his torso toward the floor while keeping the rings turned out and arms straight until he forms an inverted straddle 'L' shape. The entire body remains straight and rigid from the shoulders through the legs. The gymnast holds this precarious inverted straddle position, with the body perfectly perpendicular to the floor, relying solely on strength to support himself.
Executing a proper manna requires immense upper body strength, coordination, flexibility, and control. The gymnast must exhibit straight arms, tight upper shoulders, a straight and rigid torso, and perfectly split legs at 180 degrees to maintain the correct shape. Even the slightest bend in the arms or torso will lead to deductions in its execution. The manna tests a gymnast's functional strength and body tension like few other skills, and is considered a benchmark of elite rings mastery. When performed to perfection, it is an awe-inspiring display of strength and gymnastic artistry.
