Super Bendy Backbends

Lately I've been inspired by photos like these, where yogis are doing crazy awesome backbends. Have you ever been able to do a super bendy backbend?

Do you have any advice on getting from Full Wheel to here?

I'm still definitely working on the basic iteration of the pose.

But someday I'd like to get there!

I imagine next steps would be to practice backbending daily, try some wall walks, and begin walking the palms near the heels and playing with that.

Do you have any tips?
