dismount

Another question coming from DD: why do most girls do layouts out of giant swings instead of tucked flyaways? Unlike on floor, there doesn't seem to be a requirement in L7/8 bars for a layout. Does a layout control the swing more? Do most girls find it easier to do the layout? Also, Mr...

Hey! Guess what? I did a double back dismount off bars tonight by myself! The best part? I learned it wothout the use of a foam pit (our gym doesn't have any :( ). Just wanted to brag!

In a round-off back handspring back tuck dismount on beam, if the gymnast lands incorrectly (like if one foot sort of slips off) should the gymnast be encouraged to complete the dismount, or to stop for safety reasons? I see, a lot of times, the landings get really messed up if they try to keep...

im a level 9 this year and i dont really have a dismount! i cant do back or front fulls but i need a B element for dismount help!!

DD's L4 bars look good- almost perfect (can there really ever be "perfect' in gymnastics... in life in general- ha!) she's got the skills down and looking good, she's got the form, it all looks good except for the dismount. It's frustrating her to no end. She "gets" it- knows what to do but...

Hello Everyone, My daughter is a level 9 gymnasts who has suddenly gotten a fear of doing her roundoff full beam dismount. Would a front layout dismount get her a 10.00 SV as long as she has everything else she needs including her bonus combinations? Or would that also have to twist? Thank you

My dd is in AAU level 3. The beam dismount is the cartwheel to side handstand 1/4 turn. I was just wondering if the gymnast does the cartwheel side handstand but doesn't do the 1/4 turn (so comes straight down landing on the same side they are facing instead of the opposite side) is this...

Older dd has been working on connecting her series to her dismount for Level 8 (bhs/bhs/bt dismount) and tonight she said she nailed it 5 times! She usually has trouble with the connection between the bhs's when she thinks about doing them at the end of the beam to dismount out of the second...

i am competing in college club gymnastics so level 9 basically and need a "B" dismount for beam...any ideas?

Hi My daughter has her first L4 competion this weekend. I have a question about her underswing dismount. She has been working hard at this skill and is finally getting it. She can get good height and distance now. The problem is that she tends to throw her head out. Any tips on...

dd finally got her backhand spring back tuck dismount on beam 2day. So proud of her. It just makes me feel better about her gym change. I have been so what iffing these last few months that it is nice to see progress.

Can you have your acro series in your dismount? BHS BHS Layout dismount.

Are you allowed to add your acro series into your dismount. My daughter is wanting to do a bhs bhs layout as a dismount?

I am a level 9, 10 hopeful. In order to go to level 10, i need a double tuck dismount. A few years ago, I attempted them, but i was only 9 or ten and i ended up not making it completely around, and kneeing myself in the nose, breaking it, also causing a lot of fear. I have been able to avoid...

Today my dd came home and said that she is losing .3 on her bar routine because her legs aren't staying together on her dismount so she showed us on her bar here.. she is seperating them at her turn. Just wondering anything she can do to help correct this? her coach scored her at a 9.1 and said...

I am a level 4. And I am having trouble with my dismount in my beam routine .I do the handstand part but I dont turn to the other side .Help!!! Any advice ????

does anyone know what a back double twist tucked is worth off beam? thanks in advance :D

I was wondering if a front straight dismount off beam is currently an "A" or a "B" dismount? Thanks in advance :)

I've been working on a double full dismount off of highbar for state next week. i've had a nice and consistent full for quite awhile now. Whenever i try to add the extra twist however, i over-rotate to my back. my coach has told me to wait to start the twist. whenever i wait on twisting i end up...

Is a front pike dismount on beam an A or a B?
