DD's foreign coach who doesn't speak much english was telling here the below changes were for level 9 and 10 beam, for this season. Are these really coming out for this season? 9 and 10: Has to have 3 different flight skills Cannot do a front layout or f.full or f.double anymore, you would...

DD is working back tuck back tuck for her level 10 beam series. She has nice back tucks, but is struggling to get the connection fast enough to count w/o swinging her arms. Does anybody have a video of this connected correctly? I looked on youtube, but I didn't see any. She likes to see...

Haven't gone to one before but we will be going in a few weeks :)

It's safe to do basic things, as long as they are doing skills they have by themselves with clean form etc... We have a low beam and a floor mat that some friends gave us, and we have a trampoline in our back yard.

At our current gym if the girls aren't "ready" they don't compete, the girls score between 36's and 38's but they do a LOT of conditioning and stretching. If you don't score well at the mock meets then they make you wait until the next meet or whenever you score better. DD's gym trains 25 hours...

What fit are you talking about? I watched her routine and she wasn't happy with it, but I did not see anything immature.

Coach is right. B+B=.1 bonus.

Is there a deduction for either way?

Is a side somi supposed to land both feet at the same time or one after the other? DD's coach said at the same time, but I was watching Jordyn Weibers beam routine, and it looks like one and then the other.

DD qualified for state but won't be competing due to a broken toe. Her season is already over because of that injury.

I took DD to the doctor on Monday for her shin splints. The good news is that there is no stress fracture, but she has a bad case of shin splints. She has been dealing with these for over a year, and nothing seems to be working. She broke her foot two months ago and had to take 6 weeks off...

DD is changing her vault from a tsuk layout to a handspring front. DD put it on her youtube account, and would love some tips on how she can make it higher and also land it. Thanks in advance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-Ee0yQzmso&feature=youtu.be

No practice until Tuesday, I will try to get a video then.

I think what he said is that she does a barani, and then does a 1/2. She instead of doing a 1/2 she does a round off with no hands, thats what I mean't by she is mixing them up. Our gym does have 9's and 10's.

Back somi as in back flip? She twists to the right in backwards twisting. (Like when she does 1.5 and doubles etc...)

Left hand goes down first on round off, and she twists to the right.

DD has a front full front pike in her routine, and whenever she does it, it is very pretty. However, she gets her twisting direction mixed up when she twists, so sometimes instead of doing a full she does a 1/2 one way and then a 1/2 back. She is a righty, and her coach says she is getting her...

Her arm muscles get tired and she is a little short of breath.

What are some good things to do to improve bar endurance? By the time dd has done her shootever and hiccup to high bar she is already tired and her blind change front giant looks really sloppy, and then her dismount is not as high as it usually is. Her coach has them doing a lot of cardio, but...

Try snapping your round off quicker and closer to your hands. Your feet should land just a few inches behind your hands. In your back handspring get your arms closer to you ears and push taller through your shoulders. For spotting try to find an object/person to look for as you go back, hold...
