The trickiest part of the cartwheel with no hands is the timing when you swing up your left leg.
Indeed a flying cartwheel with a spreading-angle of 45 degrees or less is more valuable, because it makes it easier to learn the next level of this technique: "The cartwheel roll 360" (wheel with full rotation).
However, for cartwheel rolls with a lower speading-angle, the initial spreading-angle at take-off, still has to be held over 90 degrees.
