QUESTION: kipping pull-up for IPPT?

[joey_tan]

Does anyone know if this 'kipping' pull-up is legit for IPPT?

 

[gosu_smurf]

No.

PTI will not allow so much momentum to be used.

from the pic, the 2nd girl one will be accepted by most PTIs. but the first one just pushing it too far

I was told u can use whatever grip you want, narrow, wide, alternate, palm facing u, palm away from you, whatever. as long as ur chin crosses the bar and you go all the way down. but momentum is not allowed.

 

[Wasupcutler]

Its a definate no. haha The PTIs will be there to make sure you straighten your arms, and go up slowly and down slowly.

 

[prosu]

try it and see if u can get lucky with ur local PTI

Now that most of the places for IPPT is using the automated system, even if the PTI allows it, the first girl won't pass since her chin barely reaches above the bar. But ^justified is right, the 2nd girl should still be accepted.
