    Parents NJ Gym with Elite Path Recommendation

    caveat - I am not from New Jersey, just love any good reason to scour through mymeetscores. LOL! looks like north stars and Ena Paramus are both in north NJ. Ena is Olivia Dunne‘s club gym. She was on the national team and currently at LSU so the coaches definitely know what they are...

    Parents Questions about gymnast's path

    In my experience (dd is 16 and 4th year level 10 - repeated and skipped a level) programs that strictly do one level per year come in a couple different flavors. There are those that compete each level in progression but train where the child is at even if that means they are training a couple...

    WAG Just for fun: L10 bars

    A Maloney (toe hand low bar release shoot back to high bar) is a D skill. A Ray (toe hand release over high bar turn over and catch) is an E skill so is worth more (.2 bonus vs .1 bonus plus eligibility for .1 extra bonus). All high bar releases are not Es though. A straddle jaeger (front...

    Parents 2021 season

    We are still out as well although I know some gyms in our area are using the “camp” loophole to get their teams in. Ours is not. There is still talk of season even an out of state meet, but I just can’t see how that will happen. And I certainly can’t fathom how my level 10 will be safe and...

    How is it where you are?

    Nope, not me. But we will see if they make it now. You can all disregard everything I just said. Governor just locked us down. All indoor youth sports prohibited, along with a lot of other stuff. Through mid December at the earliest, but my guess is through the first of the year. My...

    How is it where you are?

    Positives are way up here. Much higher than even back in the spring, but hospitalizations are up but still pretty low and deaths are very low. Hopefully they stay that way. Based on demographic data it looks like they are doing a good job protecting the elderly and we have very good mask...

    WAG Ugh another (Texas Dreams)

    Deanne Souza just retired before her freshman year at Utah. Also a Texas Dreams gymnast. I know nothing about this story other than what has been said publically, but I think it is sad that many of the gymnasts from there aren’t able to stay healthy to compete in college successfully or even...

    WAG L9 bars question re: shootover

    It needs to be from handstand to handstand to be a D. Not handstand to handstand is C and not handstand to not handstand is B. It gets a little more complicated with connections in level 10 (B becomes C is connected to certain skills for bonus purposes) but nothing to worry about yet. but in...

    WAG Giant half? Blind change?

    I am the poster from above and my daughter just tried to explain it to me and I still don’t understand. Wow! Confusing. She actually got herself all confused as well the more we talked about it. LOL! But, I think you are right. My dd does it like in the video. She says like a blind but...

    WAG College Gymnastics

    Sorry, maybe it was diamond. I don’t know much about excel. It was just something I heard, but from someone with first hand knowledge but I definitely could have gotten the level wrong. :)

    WAG College Gymnastics

    Yes! Elites can Definitely do college gym and many do. The one thing with that is if you go pro (money and sponsorships) then you can not do college gym Anymore. So for example, Simone biles, Laurie Hernandez, gabbie Douglas, Jordan wieber, Aly raismam and many others turned pro so couldn’t...

    WAG College Gymnastics

    This is a really big question and I agree you should definitely do some serious research if you are interested in this. But here is a very surface level run down. There are three divisions. D1 - These programs take the top gymnasts in the country. They have 12 scholarships and have to give...

    WAG Giant half? Blind change?

    https://balancebeamsituation.com/elite-skill-database/giant-12/ interesting! My daughter has always done a giant half in her routine to turn around for her pak. She hits it right on top most times so not the deduction trap for her that Spenser states but I can see what he’s saying. This year...
