Hi, I've been following Gymdad57's thread and adding questions, but I thought I might get more clarity if I start a separate thread. Here's my situation--my daughter is a 2nd year level 8. However we just changed gyms (not because we were unhappy, but because my dh lost his job and we had to move). We are now at a much smaller gym and my dd is the only level 8 at the gym. We moved during the summer when there was still confusion about what is allowed at level 8 with the new changes.
Specifically my questions are: the back tuck on the beam--my dd competed it last year, was told by her coach and a judge that came for a clinic that she could still do it but it would only count as a B. The discussion here seems to agree that back tucks are not allowed.
The yurchenko entry--she competed this last year--was told that level 8s could not do it this year--and has been busting her butt trying to learn a new vault. Now I hear it is allowed.
We have our first meet this Sunday--much later than we are used to. I have been lurcking here for over a year, but finally pushed myself to join today so that I could get your wisdom. Please help!! Can she do her back tuck or yurchenko?
Thanks!!
