level 8

My DD has had some tumbling issues (not her area of strength). Her new gym is playing around with her floor passes. They had been working hard on her front layout but apparently it just wasn’t going well. They now changed it to this (she used to do 3 passes at old gym but new gym does not to...

I’m sorry if this seems ignorant...why does the flic flac step out done twice In series count as two bs with flight if in the code of points it says that any balance beam element may receive value part credit two times provided the element occurs in a different connection?

Hi, I’m new here :) my daughter is 9 years old and is going to compete level 8 in spring. She is fairly good at beam, got a couple 9.5s as and 8 year old in level 7, competed a Bhs bhs series last year...but she gets very nervous for this event! For fun, she asked me what is the shortest...

What are the flight requirements for level 8? Do you need a fight series? If so, what are alternatives to BH-BH. Thx

“My daughters level 8 beam is going well, but she doesn’t quite have her acro skill (fwo) yet. How much of an up to level deduction is it?”

Is there a judge who can look at a level 8 beam routine for me? Haha, I am a judge and still can’t figure out how a routine got the start value it did!

Would any judges be willing to give feedback on a level 8 floor routine? We don’t see anything that stands out as a big issue. My daughter is trying to figure out if it was a bunch of little deductions or if there is a bigger deduction she can fix.

So what would be a good score for a first-year JO level 8 kid? I have no idea... Scores seem to be all over the place.

My daughter recently changed her tumbling and I am wondering if it is still ok for level 8- This is what she is doing : Round off Full Front handspring front layout front tuck front tuck or front tuck front lay out- I think it is the latter but sometimes I see her do the other Thank you for your...

can someone clarify something for me? With all the new deductions for level 8 I’m just trying to understand it all. My daughter is repeating level 8 due to being off 5 months due to surgery and just coming back. The “no deduction” for 3 passes is a B in each pass or a B in two passes and a A A...

My dd’s coach has upgraded her routine, and as a result, she now has two back tucks in her routine. Her series is a fwo-bt and she also has a regular back tuck in the routine. I told her I don’t think two back tucks are allowed in level 8. Am I mistaken?

My gymmie is getting new floor music this year. Most of the pieces she likes come in 1:30 and 1:10 sec cuts. Coach says to make sure she likes the 1:30 version because that the one she should get. One of her favorites is 1:20 will that meet the minimum. Thanks in advance. Don't even want to...

So my daughter will most likely be non weight bearing on her arm for up to 8 months. It's her lead arm, so one arm skills are pretty wonky for her. She would be working to compete level 8 this year. Floor is probably the only event she can do no handed. What are some passes she could do to meet...

Hey! So I've been gone from the forum for quite some time as DD (12) has been insanely busy I forgot to post anything on here. So as some of you may know, DD has not been doing gymnastics for long, she has only been doing it for about 1.5 yrs. Granted, she did do dance for all of her life...

what are the updated changes in level 8 usage for 20-8

My daughter wants to compete a front handspring entry with just a front handspring vault. It is not listed as an option in the JO code of points for level 8. Does anyone know if she can compete that vault and what the start value would be?? She is a front tumbler and will eventually do the...

Clicked the join group button. Haven’t heard. Wondering if there is a problem?

hey y’all! So with a kid who does BHS BHS series, would a BHS BLO be acceptable for a dismount? Or is that considered a third BHS? what would be a good option for someone who refuses the RO Exits? Is there a requirement to have a jump that changes direction? Or is that L9? For level 9 is the...

So, my youngest daughter, 8 years old, just competed level 7. On beam, her series and dismount was BHS BHS BLO. I know that in level 7 you can't to 3 of the same skill...(right!?) and I think the plan for level 8 is to do BHS BLO step out and BHS BHS BLO as dismount. I know her coaches can't be...
