WAG Level 7 requirements

[gymnast.16]

Hi! I’m a level 6 gymnast who wants some advice. I inflamed my growth plate and was in a cast for 3 weeks but I got it off yesterday. I can’t do any tumbling or using my arm until 6 weeks of physical therapy. My first meet is about a week or two after I am allowed to use my elbow in the gym. At that meet I am most likely competing as a level 7 (because that’s what most of my team is doing for that meet). I am not 100% sure what the level 7 requirements are but I think you need to have a front handspring front tuck, a layout on floor, and a cast to handstand on bars. Does anyone know what the requirements are? I don’t have any of those skills (I have a level 7 vault and beam routine). Is there any conditioning or flexibility I can do while I am skill injured to help me get those skills. I REALLY want to get my cast to handstand. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated

On beam, if the routine has 2 split leaps/jumps, do both have to hit 180 to avoid a deduction?

Similar question on bars - if the routine has 2 casts (low bar and high bar), do both have to hit handstand or just one? Thanks!

Yes, they both have to hit 180 or handstand (they actually have to be within 10 degrees of handstand) to avoid deduction. That’s why it’s best to leave out extra leaps/jumps/casts unless they are needed to fulfill the requirements of the routine.
