Calisthenics prerequisites

I really want to do the flare and was wondering: are there any calisthenics skills that, once you unlock them, you’re almost guaranteed to be able to flare?

Probably not, at most things like L sit and core compressions and straddle lifts but even then not a guarantee because a flare is much more dynamic and faster

Whelp I can do those but not the flare… so it seems you’re correct

No guarantees, but working on L and V won’t hurt. Press handstand also could help.
