flip

Ok, I know nobody can answer this for sure. It's going to be different for every kid, etc. etc. The one mom wanted to know how much her gymnast will get out of a ballet class. I want to know how much my ballerina will get out of a tumbling class! My 13-year-old DD, who has been taking ballet...

Do you think it's easier to flip out of Round-Off Back Handspring (Back Tuck, Layout, Twist) or just out the Round-Off?

We're you ever jumping on your trampoline or bed and try a front flip and get scared in the middle of the air? Well that's happened to me know does anyone know how to get rid of it?

My daughter will be attending Flip Fest Camp in Tennessee this summer. She is 8 and this is her first time "away". Has anyone else attended there? Thoughts about the camp? I am, of course, a nervous mommy... LOL

Does anyone know where you can buy cheap flip flops (under three dollars) to decorate? I am looking to make flip flops for my teammates and I, but I can't seem to find any cheap enough because there are six of us. I am looking for purple if possible. Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks...

I got the e-mail today about registering for next year's Flip Fest camp. I can't remember how much it was last year; but I know that it was under $700 for my second 2 kids because of the sibling discount. This year it is $775 for the first kid and $725 for each additional kid. I understand...

Looking for feedback on the flip fest Fall Adventure Camp. Has anyone been to the three day camp and did you find it worth it? The three day camp cost is not expensive but for us it's also a flight from Canada Thanking you in advance Kat

Man, packing 3 kids for a week of camp is a LOT. I had been in denial, thinking, "oh, for each of the girls I'll throw in some leos, some PJs and a few swim suits. For my DS I'll throw in some shorts and shirts, swim suits. All done." :rolleyes: So I put it off until the last minute. I...

So who else is going to Flip Fest this year? Also, if you're going on week 2 maybe we could meet up!! So exited!:D:);)

:D Flip Fest 2013 is right around the corner!! I'm going this year on week 2. Who else is going??

Hi I wonder if anyone has experience with flip flop leos? I stumbled upon them doing a search and the prices are great. however my daughter thinks they all look like the shoulder straps are too wide. I looked and indeed she seems correct....they appear to be wider than leos she currently...

It keeps kicking back saying that my information is incorrect or incomplete. I have checked over and over. I tried filling it in without using the auto populate option for the fields. Nothing seems to work. Has anyone tried to register online and not been able to.

My parents are considering letting me go to Flip Fest gymnastics summer camp this year!!!! Yay:) I know it is extremely expensive and I live across the country from it so I was wondering if anyone has been? Is it worth it? Is it a good idea to go without anyone I know (will I meet people there)...

Just got an e-mail from our head coach. My dd has been invited by our gym to participate in the Kellogg's Tour of Gymnastics Champions! She and 3 other girls from our gym will be doing some type of group floor thing at the beginning. I can't wait to pick her up from school and tell her! We...

So Flip Fest has officially started! Any other gymnasts or DD's going? This will be my first year going to Flip Fest, I went to Woodward last year. Can anyone tell me what the typical day looks like? I also had a bad problem at Woodward with girls staying up REALLY late (Like 3-4AM) talking...

Just curious, has anyone here ever been one? I've applied to be a JC, of course I haven't heard yet, and I won't until April 1st. But what kind of jobs do you do while you're there, how is the program run?? Did you enjoy it?? Even if you've just been to the camp did you see the JC's doing...

Hi - I've had a look on this forum but I can't find it anywhere. Can someone please tell me the theory behind which hand goes in front when completing a backflip on beam and why? I know it has something to do with preventing the shoulders from twisting but I'd really like to know the reasoning...

I belong to Pakistan, Karachi city, I do yoga excersices since 1988 and achived flexibilities like splits/streachings, I can do front Handspring. Now, I want to learn Flip/Tuck but unluckly we do not have Gymnastic facilities in Pakistan. Please guide how to learn this safely.

Through my research I have found that the Korbut Flip is not allowed because of the standing on the high bar. Could it be done on the low bar? It seems to me that more dangerous skills like Geinger and Yeager are just as risky if not more especially when you add twisting. I am asking because I...

Anyone else going during this week? Or is your kid going? And is it nerdy that I've already started packing for her? I'll readily admit that I'm a planner extraordinaire so it isn't THAT unusual that I'm packing early. But I want to make sure that she has everything she needs and that...
