I’ve been following the discussion about level 10, but there are so many parts to it and whenever I think of responding, it’s gone off in a different path. Lol. So I thought I’d start a new thread about this because I’m curious. I think the changes to level 9 are great and I definitely see how...

Just as the title states... Level 9 now has difficulty bonus!

I am currently working on level 9 skills and I have some questions regarding floor requirements. My coach and I have been going over options for tumbling passes to have a 10.0 start value.

Hi, my 12 year old dd will be competing her first level 9 meet in a few weeks. She has strong skills, and is very much of a perfectionist. She works every night after practice for example on perfecting her leaps, points, split jumps at home so that she doesn't receive any deduction on those...

My sister is competing level 9 and has all level 10 skills but she is very weak on vault. She has had 2 meets this season already, got 9.05 (she felt she had done her best on that one) and 8.4 on the other (didnt land that vault). Its not just about the scores; her coach says her vault is the...

Hi my sister (age 10 level 9) has been told to compete her pak this season. She has trained a perfect pak but can also do a brilliant overshoot. She says overshoot is easier for her to do and she thinks she would get less deductions and an easier routine if she competes that. She has an in-house...

What training equipment is necessary to safely and effectively train a level 9/10? Are pits to tumble into really that necessary? What about coaching ability? How important is it to have a coach who can spot?

I am a training level 9 for the first time this year. I have a good, solid pike tsuk on vault and I’m good on floor as well. My bar routine is kip squat on, pirouette connected to an overshoot then giant giant layout half flyaway. My only issue there is keeping good form throughout my overshoot...
