    Ok thank you!

    WAG Back Tuck

    So when I do a standing tuck off of a mat, or onto a soft mat, my set is very high, and it is high if I do my tuck out of a handstand or cartwheel. When I tumble, or do a standing tuck on floor, I am setting into it kind of like a back handspring. It goes up, but not very high, and it is very...

    WAG Half On Help

    Hi, so I had practice today and I feel like my vaults were a little bit better. One thing I did was start a little farther away, but another thing was the amount of springs in the board. I feel like the less bouncy the springboard, the more control I have. Thanks for the tips!

    WAG Back Tuck

    So I recently got over my mental block in my back tuck. I had it last season and it was very high, but then I got injured and stopped practicing it. Now, I can do a RO BHS BT which is what I had a block on, and a standing tuck. But the problem is that I don’t really set in my back tucks. They...

    WAG Half On Help

    So my half on was pretty decent in my opinion in August, but when I went on vacation for a week or so and I came back to practice, my half ons have been terrible consistently. My arms always bend and I don’t really know why. My feet are also going over the side instead of going straight over my...

    Hi, Recently at my gym there has been a lot more favoritism towards certain gymnasts. It is very obvious too. I feel like some gymnasts including me are being targeted. We get yelled at for doing things that other gymnasts can easily get away with. They're small things too like sitting down or...

    My coaches also prefer if the tuck is out of a back handspring.

    I have tried to do a roundoff tuck, but for me they are more scary!

    WAG Mental Blocks

    I have been doing the skill/learning it the same way I learned it before. I have tried doing the back handspring, stopping, then doing the back tuck, but I can never connect them.

    WAG Mental Blocks

    Now that its upgrade season for me, I have been getting mental blocks. A big one is my round off back handspring back tuck and my flyaway. I had both of these skills last summer, but I haven't done them in a long time due to an injury. In my back tuck, I have enough height and I can do a...
