I think my daughter did a robh 1.5, flo ft, robh full… and I agree there is a progression… she did similar stuff in 9 just upgraded…

Paks. Kip cast handstand pak pirouette jump to high bar toe hand stalker double back

My daughter was 6 when I put her at a local gym… she was bored like your daughter! She could do cartwheels, kickovers, headstands, etc all by herself while the other kids weren’t even close. Her coaches were teenagers .. which is fine but they just had no clue. So we stayed for the month I paid...

I’d say that is good… she’s 10. Even if she wants to go elite. Is she in school too? You don’t want her to burn out. Just my opinion. It happens a lot. Maybe around 13 up the hours.

Yeah.. if she’s 6 I wouldn’t even care about her vault. My daughter didn’t even start gym until 7. Vault was her weakest event- if she got above a 9 she was ecstatic. Now she’s 12 and a level 9 and wins vault all the time. It was level 8 when she became a good vaulter

University of Utah was overnight last year…

Dang. 4 is a baby! My daughter started gym at 6. Kinda similar situation, they tried to put her on the level 2 team to compete that fall. I said no so she did pre team for a year. I want to say it was 1.5 hours twice a week? She loved it. She didn’t compete until she was 8. Now she’s a 12 year...

Ok, for what it is worth. My daughter would score high 9s for floor bars and beam in level 7. And usually 8.5-9 on vault. She did yurchenko timers. Now she usually wins vault! She won every level 8 meet for vault and is doing great in level 9 as well. Soooo flipping and timers are most...

Agree that 25 hours is too much! My daughter is a level 9 and is at gym 22 hours a week. I feel like she’s always there with 22 hours a week! That’s the highest our gym goes hour wise and I feel it is plenty. Do the hours increase from 25? I wouldn’t think she could do school with more hours...

7 - level 2/3 8 - level 4 9 - level 4/5 10 - level 7 11 - level 8 12 - level 9 I think

Wow sounds like it has completely changed since when my daughter did tops. Good luck to your daughter!!!!

My daughter is competing 9. No double back - want to say she’s going to do a ro bh 1.5 front pike… and a front layout front full and I’m guessing one other pass. I think it’s a 10 start but not sure. Agree that if they’re going to do level 10 for 3-5 years it doesn’t matter at all.

My daughter is doing level 9 this year. Her beam is similar to your daughter but I think her dismount is a full. Her vault is a yurchenko layout. She’s been working yurchenko fulls too… but won’t compete them. Floor she does ro bh 1.5 front pike and front layout front full. And her bars skills...

Ok thank you for your input! Appreciated!

Hi! My daughter is about 4’9” maybe and weighs 80 pounds… she’s 12.. she’s pretty tiny but definitely muscular. Thank you for the article!! Maybe the RKO may be a better option…

Oh snap! She must be awesome! My daughter is doing level 9 and I can’t believe the crazy stuff she’s doing! I miss the level 2 days lol. I just ordered more pairs of the usglove…. They really roll through the grips in the upper levels. Thanks again for your help:)

Ok, thank you! My daughter is 12 and uses the 00 hot shot double buckle, is that what your daughter uses? She used them in level 5,7, and 8 and they worked great! Just didn’t know if there were other “better” options now that’s she is doing paks and jaegers etc….I appreciate the response!

Hi! I need some help. My daughter has been using the 00 usglove doible buckle grips since level 4/5. Her coach mentioned today there are better grips for higher levels and she shouldn’t use those above level 6. Anyone have suggestions?? Thanks so much in advance!!

I don’t think so. But I could be totally wrong My daughter did ro bh 1.5, flo flo, and then ro bh full…. I know there has to be two saltos connected … so she might have to add to her last pass?? Fh flo f tuck or f pike?? Others may know more though
