    WAG Is a cast off to stand dismount on bars considered one skill or two?

    It is one skill, and it does not count for the cast.

    WAG Xcel Platinum Judges - Question about beam

    This routine does not have a B. A split leap is an A, even if she hits 180*.

    weird ad and/or warnings show up

    Hmmm... it happens randomly. I haven't been able to trigger it since my first comment. Let's say I go to one of the forums and open the threads with new responses in different tabs. When I click on one of the tabs, the page sometimes suddenly jumps to the software updater site.

    WAG CGM confession- afraid of DD getting hurt out of gym

    Go for it, and she doesn't need snow pants and a face mask. A helmet is also kind of overkill, but if it makes you feel better... Gymnasts instinctively tuck and roll for backwards falls, and she's not going to go flying sideways while puttering around the rink. Gloves are good to have, and gel...

    WAG Testing for Compulsory Judging

    You're tested over L4 and 5. 6 is not a compulsory level. Know the order of the skills, the value of the skills, and all general/specific/CJ deductions. Know whether a deduction is a flat deduction or up to. (Of course, you should know the routines, too.) The test tends to ask what the maximum...

    Coaches Level 8 Beam series options

    HS BHS is acceptable in L7 but not in L8. JO Code p. 158. Tick-tock BHS, FWO BHS, and BWO BHS are all acceptable series.

    WAG Level 6 bars cast & clear hip deductions

    Same angle deductions for all optional levels.

    Coaches Aerial aerial beam series

    The rule is 45*, so kicking above horizontal clearly breaks the series. Page 162.

    Yes. (I assume you're talking side aerial side aerial?)
