    Parents Comp Leo recommendations

    6 weeks is definitely not enough time. We order from Ozone in July and they come in late December. Do you know if you will even have them before the season is over?

    Women Bar routine deductions

    Women Xcel Diamond floor help?

    Parents Petitioning to level 6?

    No, you wouldn't sent videos of level 4 routines. Th point of petitioning is to show she has level 6/7 skills, not level 4 skills.

    Parents Purpose of backward roll to pushup?

    It is the same movement needed for a clear hip on bars, as others have said. There is a reason for the included skills in compulsory levels, as they are the building blocks for future, harder gymnastics skills. That's why so many people insist that compulsory levels are so important.

    Coaches Quick beam question

    A lot of gymnasts mount in the middle, so that would be impossible. It's not a rule, and its not judged or even thought about in optional or Xcel levels.

    Women Will this floor music get deducted?

    Sounds are fine, words are not. Even "hey" because it's a word. You can send it in for approval if you're not sure.

    Coaches Skipping levels in Xcel

    if they continue to say it can be skipped, don't do it. explain that its not skippable, and you would like to se an email from USAG stating that it is before letting your daughter skip'. it can mess her up. its also easily found in the Code of Points.
