    WAG Tiger Paws

    My DD wants these. She borrowed some from a friend and said she liked how they supported her wrists. She is level 6 and trying to get to level 7 before start of competition. They have started working on higher level vault skills, but I know those aren't required yet. Her coach said she...

    Off Topic Is this okay to post this?

    Totally NOT gymnastics related or even related to my child who does gymnastics. But my oldest son is in an essay contest for a scholarship that is based off the number of votes for the first phase of the contest. Can I post the link on this site?

    WAG Bell?

    Maybe I never paid attention before and this has happened at other meets. But I don't remember it at all. This past meet at a level 4 competition. There was a bell ringer at the coaches table for beam with a timer. Now, I knew the beam could be timed. I personally have no clue how much time...

    WAG Online Tutorial?

    I was wondering if there were any videos online that broke down the Level 4 routines step by step so that it could be viewed to see where improvements could be made or where deductions come from. My DD always starts off the year very rough. She has a hard time visualizing what the coaches say...

    WAG BWO L4 Floor

    Is there a different skill that can be opted in instead of the BWO during L4 floor routine. I know I read on here that they can do a BHS on the beam instead of the BWO at L5. Just wondering if there was a different skill that could be done here as well. My DD back is hurting her during this...

    WAG Level 4 Bar routine

    My DD is having a hard time getting her kip on the high bar. She swears it is different then the kip on the low bar. I have watched and watched all the other girls and I see no difference. My thoughts are that from her squat on, she isn't jumping to the high bar, but leaning into it...

    Parents Vacation?

    When you go on vacation, is it a true vacation and no gym time? Or do you look for another gym so that your child can stay in shape during time away? We are going to Florida in the spring. So I am trying to plan ahead. I am leaning heavily towards no gym time. Just wondering what others do...

    WAG Back walkover on beam

    My daughter is having issues with this skill. She actually said she hated it. She has started practicing her BHS on beam and says this is easier. She is still on the floor doing the BHS on a foam beam. She says the BWO hurts her back. Is she perhaps doing it wrong or is she just not...

    Parents Dropped DD off at camp this morning.

    It is her first camp ever (college gymnastics camp) and it is a sleep over. She was a nervous wreck. She was rooming with a girl from her old gym. We didn't see this other girl when we first arrived. DD kept going.. "What if she is sick, what if they didn't come, OMG, what if they were in a...

    WAG Why do they place all the way out?

    During a meet when they do the all-around award, why do they place all the way out? I understand that we, as parents, think our girls should get something just for competing especially with the amount of money we pay. But those girls who get last place always look crushed. My daughter's first...

    WAG How do you know...?

    When it is time to move to a new gym? How do you know if a "big" move is the right choice for your child? In a big move, I mean, moving her into another home to go to a different gym. My DD loves gymnastics. I don't know if she will ever be great. She did excel at her past level. I know...
