I have a couple of questions I am hoping someone can enlighten me.
1) difference between a bar change and a release move with regards to level 9
2) what type of release moves and/or bar changes fulfill the L9 requirements.
3) my daughter is definitely moving to L9 this year. But it seems standard procedure of our gym to just move kids up even if they don't have the skills. I guess they feel if they are only missing one or two skills it is o.k. My daughter has not learned or been taught any release moves yet. Her L8 routine was The standard pirouete low bar to free hip to handstand and two giants in the high bar. If possible, can someone please explain the jump from L8 to L9 bars and if learning the required L9 bar skills takes a long time to learn. I know it varies from gymnast. to gymnast. But if you can give some personal experiences and/or situations you've heard of as far as struggles and successes. Thank you.
To those who have seen me post one concern after another about our gym and coaches, I apologize. My daughter is still in the same gym. But i am hopeful next year we can move. My son will be driving, hopefully, and he can help with the driving of my other kids so I can make the trek to a farther better gym. In the interim, we have to get through this next season.
