Hopefully I can get what I am missing soon. y coaches say that I do great in the gym but when it comes too meets I dont do as well. Im not nervous. I like doing backhandspring stepouts on beam and frount walkover on low beam. I cant wait to start doing giants.

giants are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun

Hi! I'm 15 and a level 10! I go to Acrotex gymnastics. I love getting new skills! I'm hoping that next year I will get a front aerial back tuck for my flight on beam. right now I just have a front handspring back tuck. on vault I do a front handspring double twist. I'm hoping next year I get a 2 1/2 twist so I can start at a 10.0! hmm lets see... I'm a little behind on bars because I broke my finger on a tkatchev during the summer. so I'm still trying to get on my skills back. on floor I do a front full front, a layout pike, and a front full. I don't tumble backwards as you can see It hurts me too bad. If you want to know anything else, feel free to message me

(please dont let me vault a tsuk again!!!)

Im 15 years old. I am a level 7. I train at a private club in QC, Canada. I love doing back tucks on high beam. Its the hardest skill I can do. And the funny thing about this skills is that Im really not afraid to do it on beam! lol. But unfurtunatly I am afraid of BHS on beam. Which really sucks because I need to have this skill.

I would really like to get my handstand on bars. Any advice would be very helpful!!

Oh and there is another skill that Im really afraid of but that I really love to do. Double backs on floor (well its not really a normal floor, I think the word in english must be tumbling.) Oh well. I still love to do them!!!

Thats funny that you can do a backtuck but are afraid to do a bhs. hah thats like me though. whats easy for most ppl is like hard for me but then i can do the things that they think r hard easily!!!

i'm 14 and a level 8. favorite skills: tumbling in general... and i really like aerials for some reason. i just think they're really fun. (maybe i'll do them on beam sometime... thatd be kinda cool) ummm other then that i really like bars. i'm working towards pirouettes, blinds, and front giants. but i'm nowhere near any of them lol except my pirouette maybe i'll get that sometime soon.

I am 14 years old. I will be 15 this summer. I am a Centerville High School gymnast. My favorite events are floor and bars. I am not really scared of doing anything and I love it when I inspire my friend to do thigns she has never done before (connecting bhs on beam). I want to learn yurchenkos, giants, double back on floor and bars, and a 1 1/2 twist on floor. I have only done gymnastics for 6 months and I am proud of where I am, but sometimes I get mad because almost everybody on the team is better than me because they have been doing gymnastics for WAY longer than I have.

I just turned 14 a few weeks ago and I'm getting ready to move up to level 10. I train at a private gym in Northern Queensland, Australia and I'm working on a pre-elite program and currently train 6:00am-9:00am and 3:00pm-6:00pm Monday to Friday and 5 hours on Saturday. My favorite events are Floor and Beam. Vault is the event I have to work hardest at and I've improved a lot on bars. I broke my wrist on bars a year and a half ago so it's taken a lot of work to get comfortable on bars again. I don't like running a million miles toward things (like vault) lol. I love dance and I have really good balance so nothing phases me on beam. I love aerials on the beam and combinations in general (like one-handed back handspring to wolf full combination) and I just got my BHS to back tuck really stuck well on beam. I'm working on a 2 ½ twist on floor which feels a bit crazy but a lot of fun.
