Pink, PA
New Years Invite, MA
Starstruck, NJ
definitely a couple that I'm forgetting, I'll edit later.
She has a nice vault. I'd give it a low 9, she has a nice start though. As others mentioned, she's a little arched off the table, and her run is a little slow (but runs aren't scored so that doesn't play into the score. She has a nice repulsion but a faster run would make it even better! The...
Gymnastics goals:
Beam: full turn consistent, backhandspring step out, salto dismount
Bars: get over that darn flyaway fear (had a bad fall), free hip above horizontal, Kip cast handstand (or close to[emoji13])
Floor: punch front with better height, roundoff handspring layout
Vault: full off...
There was a meet that I wasn't ready to vault (after an injury), so I scratched. Still got a medal for vault though! Last place, 0.0.
But to the OP- nice job! sounds like you're off to a great start!
I tried it on my friend! Turned out okay (medium thickness, mid back little shorter maybe). I did it while we were waiting at trackpracgice tho, so I didn't get a picture[emoji34]but it did look nice and held up for practice! I thought it was a bit hard, and I definitely think the hair has to be...
Our preteam is slightly older, 5-7ish. They start working harder skills, and condition more. These girls come 3 days for 2 hours instead of 2 days for an hour or two (I can't remember but I think it's 1.5 hrs). They focus on more level 3 skills and skill acquisition, but still lots of body shaping.
I haven't really heard of the toddler class, but I'm sure some here have.
These "rising star" (not every gym will call them this) are working a lot on body shapes and conditioning. I only ever see them on beam, (they are leaving when I go in) but they are working on jumps, turns, handstands...
The girl in that video is healed. She isn't in a cast. She just can't use that arm. But the arm itself is healed. Iwannabemargo is right. This is either an extremely exaggerated post, a complete lie, or an extreme issue that needs to be attended too.
I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to - but many teams have something like "rising stars," which is a pre-pre team program. My gym offers this and I believe the girls are 4-5 y/o. This is often a pathway to preteam, which will lead to team at 6 or 7. Most gyms around me offer it, and...
As far as I'm aware, black is fine. I wore a black ankle brace for a few seasons and nothing has been said. Another idea is a black brace with a nude slip on (those neoprene braces that are stretchy, only a couple of bucks) top of the black brace. But black should be fine
I did a casing, and just checked my elastic - it was 3/8. I thought 1/8 seemed small haha! I zig zagged mine. I also tried elastic directly to Leo and I'm not savvy enough yet for that[emoji13] by the casing working pretty well
I'm not a sewer by any means - but a friend and I did make a few Leo's for fun. Ended up being too small in the torso, but look pretty good. I did fold over elastic for the arms and neck, but legs I thought it was too "awkward". So I did normal 1/8 inch elastic there. It really just took...
Thank you! I did end up going, vault was okay. Actually had the best vaults I've done in a while. Went to floor- tumbling was sooooo off, coach sent me to sit for a bit. Ran through some routines without tumbling, but it was starting to hurt. Went to bars, my kip cast w good form finally...
