Today my coach made us do roll back jumpups for having bad form on tumbling passes. It scared everyone (including me) into staying tight for like the first time ever (I am so bad about landing with my feet together in the roundoff), which is good. But it took the fun out of tumbling :( I wish I didn't have to choose between having fun and being good.

At my gym we also have punishments for not making skills at meets; the rule is if you fall or mess up or whatever you have to do 50 of whatever the skill was. I don't like this; meets are nerve-inducing enough as it is.
