double

I am a mom/new coach trying to help out a gym nearby to start a TNT program. There is no one within 3 hours of me who does it! I just took my two small daughters to their first competition to try it out and they loved it so much that they want to drop gymnastics all together! All we have is a...

So I'm working double lay out off bars and its not working so well. They look like open double pikes and my form is nice and all but it's not layed out! How can I open up my hips? I'm like in an over hollow... Please help! Thanks!

I wasn't sure if I should post this here or parents area. But I figured gymnasts would know. My 6 y/o DD is double jointed in her elbows and her shoulders. She has recently started saying her shoulder is hurting, and I am unsure how she can stretch the right way to help her. Also I worry...

I just watched a Youtube video of Austin White on Double Mini, paused it, and watched the transition from the floor to the apparatus frame by frame. He does not jump up onto the DMT. He picks up his feet out in front of him, knees bent, with his butt at DMT level, and as he hits the front of...

While working on floor tonght, DD's (age 6, pre-team) coach had the girls do a backbend, then, instead of kicking over one leg at a time they used their core to pull both legs up and over at the same time (looks like it should be physically impossible to me :)). I was pretty impressed when DD...

My 9 year old Level 6 Tumbler will be competing Double Mini for the first time this year. What type of shoes does she need? 1st competition is coming up, and i am going to have to order them. She will be the 1st one competing DM from our Gym, so its a learning process for all of us.

So proud of my 12 year old - she landed her double back PIKE for the first time without the coach on the floor! Such a thrill for me, but her response, "It's no big deal mom, I've been ready for awhile. We were just being safe until now!" Big skill for a little girl - can't wait to see the...

DD did her first double backs over the weekend on the tramp. It probably took 10 minutes of the coach telling her to do it before she got over the excitement/nerves/etc and tried it. Still has to move to the tumble track and eventually the floor, but it was fun to watch. She spent the rest of...

My double pikes are perfect, nice and high and great form. My double tuck, not so much. Ugh I can't figure out why... Everyone I know is the other way around. My double tuck travels too much and I either land short or fly backwards... By am I doing this?? Can someone help?

I just got new grips over the summer (us glove velcro) and they're already wearing down alot. I'm thinking about getting double buckle grips but I don't know if that would make any difference. Reguardless..I need new grips VERY soon. Season's right around the corner. I'm about 115 lbs and...

I've been doing full and a halves for almost a year now, and they're fine. Decently high, the twist is fast, etc. But whenever I try a double, all I do is a bad 1 1/2. I have a lot of momentum going backwards(I always have to roll out of it, which never happens on my 1 1/2's), and the twist...

How bad is Philip Boy's ankle after both his vault and high bar landing? Will he be able to continue?

HI! Before you start asking, this thread shows a video about acro, which is like the definition of gymnastics in my country, but applies to every gymnastics discipline that uses double backs. Double back tucks are very common in acro, artistic, tumbling and trampoline, and I've seen a lot of...

as an Amanar? And Amanar is the person it is named after? Stupid question probably, but it's not like it will be my first (or last!) on this forum and elsewhere, lol.

I'm happy to say that we are picking up a double mini today. Buying a Eurotramp used from another club. Very exciting...just wanted to share. Our T&T program is growing quickly...it's a blast!

What are the possible options for double flipping pass at level 8? My dd has done to whip back tuck but she will no longer do those. This year it is double punch front which she has been barely making second one. She has also done punch front ro back handspring back tuck.

Oh, on the trampoline in the bungee harness, lol! Thought that would get you all upset and ready to chew me out. :) They had about an hour of playtime yesterday afternoon after some pretty hard conditioning. They were "peter pan" flying and having a ton of fun.

Hi Guys Saw this coaching video on British Gymnastics website British Gymnastics and thought that due to the amount of interest the old leg circles get it might be of interest to some of you!

Just got home from setting up for our hosted meet tomorrow, levels 4 thru 10. I'm in charge of retail, and this year we have some really cute stuff! I'm really excited to see how it sells. My ds has a meet at noon( he's ready to go!), and my dd is competing her first level 6 meet tomorrow...
