You could also to front handspring round off, front walkover roundoff, cartwheel round off.
I believe aerials are D skills and you can only compete 1 C skill in Level 8? So I don't think you can do aerials until L9.
Unfortunately my mom's too scared of dogs for us to get one. I'll definitely have a few when I'm older though. But until then I'd love to see more pics and hear more stories too 👀
To preface everything I say below, it depends on the gym you are at. Some gyms like to see higher skills than required, some gyms are fine with moving people up if they get their skills over the summer etc. Also, it's been a bit since I've looked at Gold rules.
Bars I think you should be good...
That sounds very reasonable.
My gym has had a few people put in their 30 day notices and they have been told that they are not welcome back which I get why but I just hate for them to leave without saying bye to their friends and coaches :/
How does your gym handle people moving away to a different gym?
Do you guys have notices you need to give in advance? Are you allowed to stay the period if you let them know early? Do you not let the gymnasts come back once they give their notice?
I'm done with gymnastics - just curious!
Xcel sounds like a great option if she still enjoys gymnastics. Xcel allows a greater flexibility of skills within each level so she could keep working her level 7-8 skills on other events while spending time to catch up on bars. And she could always move back to DP in the future if that's a...
omg I did not remember that thread haha. Crazy how its the same conversation.
Anyways, for some more specifics, this coach likes anime (note I don't think they will read manga or like figurines) and video games (I forgot which since I myself havent played video games in a long while but I...
I'm looking for some ideas of gifts to give my coaches. I already have ideas for some of them depending on what they like but there is this one male coach that I have no idea what to get. I'm already writing them a letter to go along with it btw. This is my senior year so this is kind of like a...
Here's a server. Doesn't have much there yet but we can just add stuff as needed: https://discord.gg/3AFHDyfG
Discord group would also work since there's just a few of us but that involves getting usernames and adding friends on discord so this was just easier :)
Me! And that's so real haha. I dont know the rules for sharing personal info on chalkbucket but we could probably get a groupme or something going to discuss specifics and also a github for dev
Ooh I'd love to try and help with building this. Admittedly haven't done web dev in a bit but I could brush up on stuff pretty quickly with school almost ending.
Our coach often comes up with games like snakes and ladders but beam themed (like the spaces could be stick 5 of your acro, first half no wobbles etc.)
Are there any games you have used during practice to keep gymnasts motivated / help them get skills/ get over fear / work hard etc.?
Could be any event and any level (team/rec)
