    NCAA D3 gymnastics or D1 Acro and tumbling

    My daughter is a rising senior and will be competing L10 for the first time this year. She has been visiting D3 gymnastics schools and a D1 Acro & Tumbling school. Based on communications with coaches, we are hoping that she will get to choose one or the other. If she does get offers at both, it...

    Coaches Favorite acro connections for bronze/silver?

    Hey all! Working my way through routine planning for my first competition season and looking for ideas on the SR 1 (two directly-connected acros - either both non-flight or with one flight). Here are ones I have so far: HS roll -> fwd roll Round-off (or cartwheel) to back roll (plain or to...

    WAG Level 9 Acro series connection with side Ariel

    Hey I’m a level 8 gymnast tryna go 9 next season but am struggling to find an acro series. I did backwalk backhand as my series this year, and was gonna do backhand back layout for 9. The whole reason I didn’t put backhand backhand in my 8 beam routine is because I place my hands really weird...

    press handstand for acro? any tips?

    I'm working press handstands on blocks, and I'm really trying to get it. Since I've been out of the gym it's gotten harder to master. I have a panel mat and small blocks, as well as large ones. Any tips or drills? Thank you!

    WAG Level 7 beam - deduction for missing acro connection?

    I think the title says it all. More details, my DD's acro series is CW-RO. This past meet, she had a big balanced check after CW, then another big balance check after RO. So my guess is, the deduction for these two balance checks was around 0.5 total, but then another deduction was added for...

    WAG Level 6 acro series - Deductions

    I have twin girls, both competing Level 6 and both struggling to overcome back tumbling mental blocks. They competed Platinum last season without back tumbling in their floor routines.

    T&T T&T/Rhythmic/Acro nationals 2020?

    I know the expectation is that next year will be earlier because it's an olympic year. Anyone have a more firm set of information other than the Draft calendar from 7/11 on USAG's T&T website? I ask because depending on how early it is it may interfere with 8th grade graduation for my...

    8 year old dd switching from acro to gymnastics. Now xcel tryouts!

    My 8 year old dd has been dancing for 2 years. Never really liked dance, except acro- which she excelled at. After years of begging we took the plunge, against her Drs advice and signed her up for gymnastics. She is just so passionate about it. Every video, everywhere we go, it's all she does...

    WAG Do Artistic Gymnasts ever do Acro and Tumbling in college?

    I just noticed something exciting yesterday and of course now I have some questions. The college I graduated from has recently added an Acro and Tumbling team...which was news to me until I saw it browsing on their website last night. They are Div 2. Was wondering, is it common for artistic...

    WAG Level 9 Beam - Single Acro?

    I am a little confused about all the requirements and judge preferences for level 9 beam. Is there a single acro requirement? If so, what skills qualify for that? Is that a compositional requirement or just preferred by the judges?

    WAG Level 8 beam acro series. Please help

    DD is wanting to make L8 this year, and looks like beam will be the deciding factor. According to her, her bhs on beam are so ugly, she will take more than a point in deduction on them. I don't watch, so can't confirm. Her coach has told her to come up with something else, that will count and be...
