WAG Xcel Gold Bars Circles

[procmadz]

DD has really clean FHC, and can pull off several in a row. For Xcel gold, the coach is training them all in two connected circles, which I know is technically not required, but is something our gym requires for gold. The two options the kids have been given so far are FHC cast BHC, which DD competed last year (didn’t do the best, cast wasn’t always high enough, lead to pikey BHC) and BHC-BHC, which DD can do, but it isn’t the prettiest and is pikey in about half the time. DD is wondering about this pass. Do you think FHC-FHC would be a reasonable series of circles?

If it's good, I think it would work, although it might feel awkward in terms of rhythm with a horizontal cast either before or after We are really liking the front hip circle cast back hip circle right now. Also, starting this year, two circles are indeed required for gold. They can be the same or different, so it sounds like your gym is just ahead of the curve.
