My son will hate that! He already has the routine WITH pommels. Ugh.

Wow, interesting. Our soon-to-be L6s have been doing some work on the floor horse with one pommel. As DS competes as a 9 year old this year, this would mean he's four years away from having to have the hang of it. Judging by what the guys look like, it might be just enough time, LOL! No pommels would be a big help for one of our guys who's hoping to compete L8 this year and has struggled with this event.

But, awww, poor D! I guess he'll just have to wait a little longer to be completely awesome.

LOL Profmom! He loves loves pommel. BUt maybe it will give teh shoulder a chance to heal since he can't seem to remember to let go when falling
