    Beam leaps

    I'm a level 5 and am struggling with getting my leaps on beam to be big. I have a great leap on floor and a full split, but when I move it to a beam it is the tiniest leap ever. My coaches told me that I keep going up instead of splitting my legs, but it just doesnt seem to get better. Any tips...

    Back walkover on beam help!!

    I am trying to learn my back walkover on beam. I've been practicing it on a 1" high mat beam thing. I can land my feet straight on it but can't get my hands together on it. Does anyone have tips for keeping your hands together so they go on the beam?

    Handspring Handspring on Beam

    I was wondering if anyone had any good drills for back handspring back handspring on the beam. I have a back handspring on the high beam, as well as a relatively consistent back walkover back handspring and handstand back handspring. Also, I tend to jump ever so slightly to the right. Thanks!

    L 10 beam connection value?

    My daughter does a FHS/BTK at L9 for her connection. Can she use that at 10? Is it worth the same as a BHS/BT? Are they both Cs?

    Feet sticking on beam

    So I am competing in Ladies division this weekend. Should be interesting :p the problem is I can do a full turn on beam just fine if I am wearing socks but not in my bare feet, not even close.

    level 3 beam routine

    At the meet this weekend, I saw a lot of variation during a part of the routine. I hoped to come here to find a definitive answer. After the gymnasts levers into and out of the handstand, she runs and locks into position to execute a half turn. This is where my question comes from. Some of...

    Coaches Back Flip Hand Position on Beam

    Hi - I've had a look on this forum but I can't find it anywhere. Can someone please tell me the theory behind which hand goes in front when completing a backflip on beam and why?
