cartwheeler
Spinning hands-feet acrobat
A cartwheeler is someone who performs cartwheels—the gymnastic move where a person turns sideways with arms and legs extended like wheel spokes.
The term applies both to children playing in the yard and to trained gymnasts or acrobats.
It can also describe someone known for cartwheeling habitually or enthusiastically: She was always the cartwheeler of the group, flipping across any open stretch of grass.
