In this photo Theresa is getting ready to go into an “Heel Catch”. Some trapeze performers will place themselves one heel at a time. Others will slide from their hocks to their heels, which in my opinion  is much more difficult. The trick is difficult especially if you do the trick at the front of the swing. Not to give away any secrets but most performers will use heal blocks that will extend the heal for more holding support on the trap bar…… I have seen this trick done with bare feet but only by women, why I can’t tell you.

Thank you Ivan Spellman for the  correction.
