Thanks for feedback
Hey XCel coaches,
I’ve coached XCel for a couple years as an assistant coach but now I’m the head coach. I’m learning the rules the best I can, but there’s been some things on my mind that I didn’t immediately find answered in the CoP that I was hoping to get guidance on.
1. Can a gymnast turn...
My daughter is wondering what level (xcel) routine this would be:
tuck jump without hands mount
full turn
cartwheel, cartwheel
split jump, 3/4 turn jump
back walkover
barani dismount
TIA!
Hi, I’m new here :)
my daughter is 9 years old and is going to compete level 8 in spring. She is fairly good at beam, got a couple 9.5s as and 8 year old in level 7, competed a Bhs bhs series last year...but she gets very nervous for this event! For fun, she asked me what is the shortest...
My dd is preparing to score out of Level 5 (our gym doesn't compete 5) She is currently having a bit of a mental block on her BWO on beam. It's a skill that she has done in the past but has sporadically caused some fear. She used to have a very flexible back so it has always looked good. But...
Just curious, not for me, for a friend. I think there is a requirement for a beam routine to have some sideways dance in it? What would be the penalty for not including this in the routine? I think it's under the FIG rules (we are not in the US). Can any judges out there help with this...
I already asked this in the Xcel social group and have one awesome reply already but would like feedback on a Gold Beam routine. Would this routine work for a 10.0 SV: Leap-Sissone, BWO, full turn, split jump-straight jump, front tuck dismount. I think it's missing a second acro skill, but the...

I first saw this great routine, actually, in the fail video. (2:05)
She also has, in addition to that amazing mount, some cool overpoint work and a sweet backwalkover.
So, i'm re-choreographing my beam routine for next season, and i have a few skills that i don't feel confident about ( falling out of full turn, cat leap with low knees so it doesn't get credit etc.). Would you put these skills at the beginning/ first half of the routine, so you can get it over...
I have a meet April 1st. I'm a sr 9 (if you've seen my other posts you know that it's basically levels 6-10, you can have any skills) and so rn i'm doing basics ig? I have a bhs bwo for my series, full turn, switch wolf split jump, split leap, wolf jump, and step front layout dismount. But i've...
Short Stack is dreaming of next year, which will hopefully be her first season as an optional gymnast (no clue if she'll compete 6 or go straight to 7). She is thinking a lot about her beam routine and wants to mount with a press handstand. From what I understand, this is a B skill. If she did...
In the level 3 beam routine, what is the deduction for not getting your handstand vertical? What about not kicking to horizontal? There are probably more technical terms for this. Sorry :)
hi - new to this community. i found it while researching beam ideas for my level 6 gymnast. at her gym they create their own beam routines and while she knows which skills she wants to do and has some filler, she's not really sure how to put it all together and she needs some hand movements...
My dd is working on her level 7 beam and it clocks in around 40 seconds. She hits all her needed skills (I think), starts down on the beam, does full turn, bwo-bhs, split jump/beat jump combo then cw-bt. I know there are over time deductions but not sure about under time ones! Thanks!
Last year I coached the level 3s and they did really really well...3 state champions and top 10 for team! Their were 9 girls in the group and their ages ranged from 7-12 (only one 7 year old). This year I have 14 level 3s.....14!! And their all so much younger. Within that group I have three 6...
Hello, I understand they (judges) are looking for precision and tightness. Maybe they are looking for what they see in the Olympics, but I want to understand why when you look at a gymnast doing a routine that looks very good yet, gets a low score.
Are they looking for complicated movements...
