Testing Day!

I know most posts on the Good Luck Forum are reserved for Meet notifications. But I have a different sort of need for luck!

DD is doing testing on Thursday for her L8 Skills. Can you send her good vibes?

On Beam she has her skills - her B's are: Flight and a switch leap.

Floor she has a full, a double salto and a fronthand, front lay.

For Vault, She has a decent Tsuk (needs more work but can flip it on her own)

Giants on Bars? Not a problem, has had them for 2 years. But Our gym is requiring the Pioruette this year for L8's. That is where the Bar fairy is needed. She hasnt done any in a few weeks (or more!)..

Keep your fingers crossed!

Thanks!

Tell Beetle that I have everything crossed for her. I have organised for that pesky bar fairy to spend a few days down your way too, we kind of need it, but I think Beetle will make better use of her!

Good luck to her, and many Happy B-Day wishes to her as well. That pirouette will make a nice present, hope she succeeds in all she sets out to do that day!

Hi,
Good luck to her- sound slike she is on her way!

The pirouette is a USAG Level 8 requirement, not a gym requirement. One of their special requirements is a 1/2 pirouette or a flight element- shoot over, toe up, straddle back. The 1/2 pirouette is a skill she can build on in Level 9 and 10- I require mY L8's to have one too, even if they ahve a flight element too.
