WAG Side Aerials on Beam in which Level

[twistingmia]

How hard is a Side Aerial on beam?

I never tried it, I just have my Aerial on floor.

It took me a while to get an Aerial on floor standing, so not from a hurdle, but now that I have got it, it is not that hard.

Of course I don't know, but I guess it shouldn't be very different on beam than on floor, if you have it standing?

At which level do you usually compete Side Aerials on Beam?
Is it harder than BHS BHS on beam?
Is it harder than a Back Tuck?

It's a "d" so you can't do it till level 9

Is there a chart or something to see what each skill is?

You have to buy the JO Code of Points to get a list of skills.

Your gym should have one

Is the info on this site the same as the current JO code of points?

It seems to be similar. The code of points also gives you a diagram and the code number and all of the deductions. It's pretty interesting to look at.

There is a big difference between doing it on the floor and doing it on the beam. There is little margin for error on the beam.

A back tuck on the beam is easier than a side aerial for most people.

The thing with beam skills is they aren't that physically demanding. If you're interested in getting a side aerial on beam and you can already do the skill on floor, just start training it for beam. Work it on a line on the floor and go up from there.

Very interesting topic!

Do you think a BH series is harder than a side aerial???

I think an Aerial is easier than BH BH (I have just tried it on low beam!)

Just a note though, the FIG code and the USA Gymnastics JO code are different.

I agree with both of these. I could do both on the low beam and could do the tuck on high beam. The aerial was harder. The aerial is easier on floor because you don't have to be precise about the landing.
