roll

We have a acrobatic gym. we bought 7 rolls of Flex Roll Carpet Bonded Foam in 2014. it has been on spring floor most of its life, rolled up maybe 15 times.. These separations are happening in various spots on the floor. We are just wondering is 10 years the normal life of flex roll? We are...

They always say a Front Dive Roll is a Progression into a Front Flip Tuck. I don't get it. What are the similarities? What parts are alike? I can do a Front Dive Roll, but not a Front Tuck flip yet.

Looking for tips of the push up into the handstand. My problem is that I roll into a headstand. How can I push through more? (Can do an aerial, can't do a back extension roll :oops:)

What positions are used in a Dive Roll, during Mid air part? Is it Arch, or Hollow? I am trying to figure out, Resource: Basic Shapes in Gymnastics: https://crossfitdunwoody.com/gymnastics-is-all-about-shapes-arch Thanks,

Fair warning, I am old(!)- and when I was a gymnast we couldn't shift our hands in the HS. I started coaching about 2 years ago, and I have heard and seen different things. Can the gymnast shift their hands from turned in once in handstand? What are good ways to troubleshoot arch-y backs...

Hi I was wondering if anyone: gymnast or coach has ever had trouble learning or teaching backward roll to handstand correctly. If there are issues,what are normally the most common problems that make this skill feel impossible to do correctly? Is it more a skill that is about physical...

My 5 year old is in a preteam development group and she is the only one in her group that does not have a backwards roll on the floor and she’s only gotten her pullover a few times. She’s frustrated!! She has beautiful form on handstand and cartwheels (idk if that matters). I’m not sure if...

On the back extension roll in the L4 floor routine, is the gymnast supposed to hit a split position before coming down from the handstand?

Is that an A or B

For the forward roll on beam: arms completely straight (like on floor), completely bent or somewhere in between?

Do you have tips how I can maybe land my handstand forward roll on beam? My coach says I should hold the handstand longer, but are there other tips? He hasn't coached this skill before so we are both looking for tips here.

How do you teach (or would you teach) a handstand forward roll on beam? I can do it on a line beam. However, I can't quite get it on the normal beam. Any tips?

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...

So..... I'm having blocks on Korbuts. One of the coaches at my gym pulled me aside and helped me do lots of drills that would make me go higher, and they worked. Yay! Only trouble is during the entire thing she kept talking about how if I didn't go high it would hurt, etc.... and I knew that...

Hi all, Does anyone have experience with gymnasts who tend to roll an ankle whilst practising? Do you take any measure/have advice to prevent it from happening? I'm sure I'm not the only one. The problem is that it's not necessarily just doing "big" skills, yesterday I managed it doing a round...

How long is a girl supposed to hold the handstand in a back extension roll for the level 5 floor routine please?

Coming from the WAG side, I don't see a lot of roll out skills on floor. I've noticed a lot of them in the Olympics in Men's routines. Why are they there? What is their purpose. What do they demonstrate? I'm genuinely curious.

Are two of these connected in a row worth anything? DD has been doing these in combination as well as a handstand back extension roll combo. She does both passes well. She will be competing the backhandspring not in combo with anything. She is training 7. Just curious what these things are worth.
