Roll

Description

A roll similar to the one performed in martial arts, starting at one shoulder and ending at the opposite hip. The head should never touch the ground, and the goal is to find a path over the body that goes through areas of muscle or fat and avoid bones and joints.

Notes

The roll is often used to dissipate the impact of a jump, but can also be used to overcome obstacles.
