1.) Kip to horizonal.
2.) Sit up hard.
3.) Pull up and over the rings.
4.) Vertical forearm before the dip.
5.) Full lockout of elbows
6.) Maintain false grip. Drop. Repeat.

Holy gymnastics Batman! Execute your movements well technically and efficiently: up & over the rings, keeping the body-line extremely tight, and the triangle concept!
