Hi. I'd like to re-introduce myself since I haven't posted in about a year and a half. My daughter quit a week or two after my last post. She just didn't love it any more; in fact she now admits she hadn't even liked it for almost the last year, but was trying to stick it out. I sometimes...

DD has had her flyaway since last summer, but has "lost it" on and off after a fall. She "regained" it in the fall, and has been doing well with it over the past few months, and has competed it successfully several times. Since states, the girls have been focusing on cast-to-handstands...
