How to do it
From a bar, kick strongly at an angle higher than parallel to the ground.
Try to make your hip move as far away from the bar as possible. This will create an inertia that will make you swing really hard.
When you are in the back, prepare one leg to rotate, as if you were going to kick.
As you pass the bar, give it a tap with the hand opposite the rotation.
