My daughter will be competing level 5 in September. I have read on CB the scoring is really tough in level 5. Her coach requires them to get a 35 at one meet and then at state which is in December to move up. Her coach feels like level 5 is really valuable. While I was hoping she would do level 6 it's not my decision.I have some questions because my child is such a perfectionist she stresses me out. I prefer not to have her stress because that makes me stress. I like to be one step ahead of her.
Is the vault scored the same as level 4 or harsher? It seems pretty boring to my dd. She's got her half on and her vault has always been pretty good. She can generally count on vault being at least a 9.
Bars is good too.
Beam is hmmm. If she would stay on the beam she would score in the 9's. Last year the cartwheel killed her but when she stuck it she scored well. How can you make that back walkover 80% of the time and not your full turn? The full turn is killing her. It's just been in the past 2 weeks she started having problems. I got to practice a few minutes early yesterday and watched her struggle. The coach made her do her routine over and over until she got the full turn. She never really stuck it. She didn't fall but had some wobbles. Any suggestions? Anything she can try at home?
Floor is good too. Her front tuck needs to be better but level 5 is very similar to the level 4 routine. She did well on floor in level 4. Tumbling is her strength.
