"Eeeh, I waited long enough," Raph muttered. They knew for sure now that they weren't just going squish at the bottom.
"Pitiful," he said more loudly, as he walked over to the ledge. "Everyone's doing scared little bunny hops in."
"And you can do better?" asked Eric.
In response to that, Raph stopped a few feet short of the edge, gave the man an even stare, then flipped up to the ledge and did a handspring off it, grinning a wicked grin the whole time, briefly glancing over at Nico right as he went over the edge.
It hadn't been as complex a set of flips as he was actually capable of since he didn't want to play up his acrobatics too much until they started getting into training but it was enough to get the initiates all roaring with laughter and applause.
Even Eric had the smallest little twitch of a smirk tug at his lips, one that stayed there until the next whistle.
