At what level did your gymmie start learning/uptraining for level 5 skills? It seems like a big jump from level 4 to level 5 skill wise, and seems more drills and exposure to l5 skills early on would make for a smoother transition. It seems level 4 is a common level to repeat because of this.
My Gymmie is just a level 4 now, competing in the fall, but I'm *hoping* she will start getting to work on l5 skills over the summer. Especially because she is already an 'older' gymnast for her level and these skills only get tougher the bigger you get from what I've heard. Not to mention the fear factor kicking in as kids get older too.
Just curious at what level most gyms start introducing tucks and bwo on beam and flyaway on bars, etc.
