Hi, my daughter completely had a brain freeze and after she did her low bar kip, she then did her mini giant (which is supposed to be on the high bar) but she did it on the low bar then she realized her goof and just got off the bars confused what to do next. The coaches brought the spring...
on the L3 bar routine, does anyone know what the "requirement" is for the "tap" they do with their feet on the mat before they do the pullover?
DD is very short and after she does the initial swing thing (not sure what it's called) she very quickly swings back then swings forward to do her...
I've recently joined the Chalk Bucket community and see lots of parents posting videos and asking for critiques. We would love if someone would help us out by judging my DDs lvl 5 bars routine. The score she received was not what we were expecting so we're interested in obtaining some advice...
My daughter completes xcel gold...the last 2 meets she has received a 9.5 start value. Her cast seems above horizontal (slightly pikey- but still above horizontal) . Her tap swings could be a little higher. She does a tap swing half turn (L4) dismount. Is there any way that they are not...
So proud of my girl today.... she competed today - bars only. I'm like a broken record - she can't compete anything else due to her tear in her knee.
I thought she was amazing despite the little fall (ok big fall) on her gienger. Had she been a little closer to the bar...LOL she might have...
can someone tell me what the start value would be of this routine
jump to high bar kip cast pak to low bar to piorette kip cast squat on jump to high bar giant giant double back dismount
Thanks
What are the cast requirements? I watched my daughter (at her request lol) for a few minutes today and it seems her casts for this routine have gotten much smaller than I ever remember them....
She has the power and ability to do more, that's why I'm wondering...
Don't worry-- no coaching...
So I'm in level 4 and I can't connect my kip to a horizontal cast or horizontal cast to squat on. I do my kip and then I have to change my grip. I have to put my thumb under?? I feel like if I don't put my thumb under I'm going to lean over to far and fall. Any suggestions would be great...
Can someone tell me how much of a deduction it is if a gymnast does an extra swing on high bar in the level 4 bar routine? For example, gymnast does jump to high bar, Kip, ½ cast (aka extra swing, not going right into the next move), then the real cast to horizontal, bhc, and then the rest of...
Anyone want to look at my dd's bar routine and let her know what she can improve upon for states? This routine was done after a 4 week break from gym due to an injury. Thanks!
In a USAG level 9 bar routine, if a gymnast performs a squat on, jump to high bar, kip, cast handstand, pirouette, KIP, CAST (under horizontal), bail (or overshoot) what are the total deductions?
.03 for the below horizontal cast, but what about additional execution and compositional...
My DD is having a hard time getting her kip on the high bar. She swears it is different then the kip on the low bar. I have watched and watched all the other girls and I see no difference.
My thoughts are that from her squat on, she isn't jumping to the high bar, but leaning into it...
How much of the bar work (kip, clear hip, cast handstand, giant) is strength and how much is technique?
My son is really strong and a great tumbler, but was not allowed to work on p bars, rings and high bar due to an growth plate issue, but now he is allowed to!
He is strong, he can do a press...
Okay coaches need your help. I have a level 9 that is afraid to do a Pirouette into her overshoot from high bar. She will go for the overshoot as long as it's not coming out of the Pirouette. Can you guys give me some suggestions for a bar routine? Thanks
We are using L6 to give our kids that need extra time...a more relaxed year to learn skills. We need the routine that will score the best with these limitations...
Gymnast can only cast to 45 degrees (A value cast)
Gymnast can NOT clear hip to horizontal or above...
My daughter is competing level 7 this season. She has a very standard bar routine - kip, clear hip, squat on, giant-giant, fly away. When she comes out of her clear hip, she is at horizontal at best (she is not able to come close to a handstand). Just wondering what the deductions would be in...
So dd's bar routine will be the following:
kip
cast
pirouette
clear hip (she likely will not make it to handstand)
kip
cast
squat on
jump to high bar
kip
cast handstand
giant
giant
layout flyaway
She insists she doesn't have a routine, that she can't do the pirouette to hand stand or the...
Can someone please tell me what the requirements for a new level 5 bar routine. I am hearing conflicting info. Is a baby giant a requirement? What about kip to high bar, tap swing, counter swing, tap swing flyaway?
Our club is making our level 5 girls do baby giants, another coach from another...
