dismount

Current skill value of beam dismounts: (think they have been changed in last few years). All off from end of beam: Gainer tuck Gainer pike Gainer layout Gainer full

Our first meet is coming up next weekend and we have several girls who just can’t seem to get the skills they need to meet the requirements for their level. Before you ask why the girls simply don’t compete at a lower level, I am going to say that decision is made by the gym owners and not us...

Is the underswing dismount (current level 3 dismount) still acceptable for bronze? Im confused about this based off of what I'm reading in the code of points book and a handout I received at a recent training. Also, if still acceptable, does it have the same value as cast off to stand?

If a level 7 dismount does a RO back tuck as a dismount, does the RO still count as a flight skill for the special requirement? (We had an issue with a skill once that the judge deemed was part of the mount and not an acro, so I want to check on this before I give the go-ahead)

I'm an adult gymnast who's going to be competing NAIGC level 6 this year--it's my first time ever competing in any sport, let alone gymnastics. The program at my gym is very self-guided and self-coached, which includes coming up with routine compositions. I've been scouring YouTube on beam...

Is a roundoff full allowed in level 7? Short and sweet.

For level nine dismounts, are you required to do at least a full twist? Or is this just one option that fits the requirement? Also, what would the deductions be for doing only a roundoff back tuck?

Hey guys, I'm a 23 years old gymnast from germany and I hope I can learn a few things from you guys. I started gymnastics, when I was 21; I know, its like superlate but I'm trying my best ^^ I'm here because we don have a gymnast-Forum in germany, my coach isn't the best and I'm far away from...

Title says it all ^ I'm trying to learn a toe on front off dismount like so: Suggestions? I can do the sole circle part correctly according to my coach, but apparently, I don't open enough. I've heard arching a ton helps. Can anyone find any other things that might help me? When I'm on...

My L7 was injured much of last year and I had hoped she would repeat L6 but the gym pushed her forward. As a result it feels like she's never quite prepared for meets. She has consistently had problems with her bars dismount. The first meet she released too late and over rotated and missed her...

so i don't know if my dd has had a growth spurt or what but she is having issues with landing her bars dismount/flyaway. when she first learned this past summer she was doing a tuck flyaway but her coach wanted them to do layout flyaways and she finally got it but had issues with landing it vs...

Quick question to you all awesome people out there :) My dd does hurdle cartwheel back tuck. With no pause. I see some that does step, step, cartwheel back tuck. Any difference on scoring?

For level 6. My dd have her bwo bt dismount pretty good. But coach decided to make her do cartwheel bt. Is there any advantage or disadvantage?

Nice way to end summer training - getting her full out dismount on bars. So funny how some skills come easier and then some seem like they take forever... Full in - nope that didn't work, Double layout - nope couldn't get that either. I thought it was going to be a double back...

just curious of the reasons coaches will choose to do one dismount as appears to the other...originally, the girls were working on the feet on the bar/shoot off (excuse my lack of knowledge of terms! Lol) they have changed the dismount they are doing to a cast->hips on the bar->shoot off. Is...

I am seeking some fresh ideas on teaching the gainer dismount off the end of the beam (tuck or pike). All tips/ Drills greatly appreciated. Thanks

I fear we are one skill short in our Xcel Bronze bar routine based on scores in our last two meets. Can anyone definitively tell me if a cast off to stand dismount is considered one skill or two (cast + dismount)? I believe I have seen it iterpreted differently by different judges. Thanks in...

I have been falling when doing the punch front dismount off beam. I noticed a few other people doing round-off"s and since I have a meet in just two short days, was wondering if there is a deduction for competing a round-off as a dismount for Xcel gold. Thanks!

What is a double pike bar dismount in JO? C or D?

I have a fairly important meet coming up (xcel silver) and want to spice up my bar routine and do a different dismout. Currentley i have a back hip circle underswing, so any suggestions?
