    Hey guys! So, I am having a little bit of trouble with my backhandspring on beam. I have competed it all season with small mental blocks and what not, and just yesterday I missed my hand.

    WAG Floor music! Please Help

    I am really struggling here. I need some recommendations. I would like something fierce, that is not overplayed, and everyone would love. Almost like Simone biles' floor music. I have searched everywhere and I am starting to loose patience. Nothing cutesy please, I am a bit to tall and old to do...

    WAG Tsuk vs. Yurchenko

    I have been seeing a lot about Tsuks and yurchenkos in the forums lately, and recently I saw something that seemed interesting to me. Which one seems to be the easier one??

    Flat feet :(

Even to the extent of changing my tumbling passes! Anyway, I have very flat feet which are extremely annoying because from...

    WAG Switch leap back leg

    Well, I just competed at a meet this past weekend. I got an 8.55, because my start value was a 9.7 due to a missing B. I used to have a switch leap in there, but we took it out due to an extremely bent back leg. I really need some help with this. I am getting some pretty bad deductions from...

    WAG Bras for competition wear

    Hey guys! I'm a gymnast that meet wise, have just started wearing bras because previously I really didn't need them. Now I'm sure you all know it's a deduction for a judge to see undergarments, so I am completely clueless on what to get that doesn't show! We have long sleeved leotards that are...

    What to do for wrist injury from bhs on beam

    Hello everyone! I'm not quite sure if I have this in the right category, but I am a gymnast. The other week I was doing back handsprings on beam, and my wrist started to hurt.

    Coaches not spotting on beam

    Hey guys! I just wanted to know if any other gym does this. My coach absolutely refuses to spot us on beam. I am not quite sure of their reasoning because they will spot every where else. JUST no beam. They will however let us get a big folding incline and some panel pats under the beam and try...
