    Women Beam mount ideas

    The "easiest" ideas I could think of are coming down like a normal handstand or pressing down into a straddle. I like this mount a lot!

    Off Topic What are some of the best gymnastics camp?

    Pretty much any camp you go to. Find one close to you. You are not guaranteed to get a LOT of skills when attending any camp (most are only 1-3 days), but it can help you with your progressions and forms on new and old skills.

    Coaches Back handspring hand placement on balance beam

    I was told whatever leg you put in front for your bhs, putting your OPPOSITE hand in front is the easiest to make sure you hips stay squared.

    Gymnasts Dive roll flight on beam?

    For high school gym, I do bridge kickover to dive roll, so I dont see why it would not work. I guess it depends on the state??? (Im in Ohio for reference)

    Women Loving gym again?

    Sometimes its best to step back for a bit, maybe come fewer hours. Talk to your coaches and see if they can do anything to help.

    Coaches competition leotard brands

    My gym is switching to spektrum for our comp leotards this year. I've only had spektrum practice leotards, so I dont have any opinions on the comp ones yet. (I get sized for it in a couple weeks, but their regular cuts are a bit higher, so if you have a longer torso, you need to get the long sizes)

    Gymnasts Front Toss struggles

    The girls at my gym who have worked front tosses (I have tried front tucks on a line a few times, but never moved it up) worked them on a line in the pit first. Once they could do it in the pit (landing upright), they would move it onto a floor line. Think about it as a regular front tuck on...
