Hello Everyone - I was hoping someone could answer a quick question:
Do both of the routines below for USAG WDP Level 8 start at a 10.0 and follow all requirements:
ROUTINE ONE
1) Round off - Back handspring - Back Full (layout position)
2) Sissone - Switch Leap
3) Split Leap
4) Full and a...
I was wondering if my level 9 does a front handspring connected to a Front full on floor, does she get the A-C connection?
Or do we need to add a front tuck to the end for the C-A connection?
Thanks!
Sorry for this potential dumb question, but is there a link anyone can send that shows me the level 7 vault for this year? And the specifications for the vault?
I had 4 xcel platinum girls last year. The decision has been made to move over to the JO program. Based off of skills and scores last year, these girls are ready for level 6 (almost level 7).
Instead of competing at extra meets to have them qualify through level 4 and 5, I heard about mobility...
Hey! I have another USAG level 9 question about connection bonus (this time for bars)

Hey everyone
Our gym is having a debate on bonus points on floor for level 9.

I have a question about one of my level 8's in USAG. She struggles to do a cast handstand pirouette, but EVERYONE seems to be doing that in their routines. Can she do a bail (high to low), straddle back (high to low), or a toe hect (low to high) instead of this pirouette?
Hey All,
In Xcel Platinum, the gymnasts are required to have 6 A valued skills and 1 B valued skill. Although there is time left to achieve our goals, one of my gymnasts does not have her B valued skill yet. What is the deduction for not having that B valued skill?
Thanks to anyone who replies!
Hello Everyone
I am coaching all of the upper levels at my gym this year. I had a question about the USAG level 8 bars routine (and requirements). I understand all of the requirements, but:
1) The routine requires 4 'A' and 4 'B' skills. Can we replace an 'A' skill with a 'B' skill? (so have 5...
