I know both are G elements but is one harder than the other? In the 2008 olympics I saw a few double twisting double tucks but no full twisting double layouts.
I have a gymnast who is double popping on vault. She had a great HS flat back last year. We have a prota-vault that goes into our pit and she doesn't do it on there. Once she gets to the table it's like she double pops and she almost get stuck in her HS. Any tips or advice on this situation I've...
Okay, i am aware that it is a very high scoring vault but its infuriating every single person except for the occasional exception competes this vault and its just driving me bonkers!! What do you guys think of this vault?
I have a few questions I guess but this is all stemming from new fears. I have a t&t competition is about a month and suddenly I am losing all my skills. I need to compete a barani double back for one of my double mini passes. Funny thing is I have done it a billion times but now I am scared...
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...
I am working on level 8 in trampoline and tumbling. I am trying to do a barani from the first bed of the double mini to the second bed of the double mini and then a back tuck/layout off of it. I keep landing with my feet in front of me which causes me to fly backwards. Which then makes it very...
My DD was telling me that at camp someone mentioned to her about having double jointed elbows.
I must admit I would notice when she was in handstand or arms up on beam, her arms form more of a V rather than looking straight per se.
Her coach has never brought it up so I would assume it was...
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...
I don't get to post much because my boys are usually just working strength & drills but.. today my little JJ (6) did his first RO BHS by himself! It was also the first day he ever got to try one - two spotted ones and he was ready to go. I could not believe it. I got it on my cell phone camera...
Here's a video of me at open gym working my bwo bhs on beam and my double fulls into the resi. My mom only got like 3 videos of my bwo bhs and she missed all the good ones :( And my double fulls need a lot of work. I don't set up at all! Any constructive critism is appreciated :)

My daughter is L9 15y gymnast. She's been doing double tuck of bars for 4 years without spot. Never fell. Last year she was introduced to the Chinese tap and this year she is told that her "regular" tap is dangerous and is relearning it cos her toes are not pointing high enough in the tap...
I am learning double backs, I have done a ton of timers and backtuck to back on a trampoline. My coach says the back tucks are high enough and fast enough. I tried them into the pit today and I cannot get past going to my back. My coach says just tuck hard and pull and try as I might I just...
Hey guys,
I'm wondering what kind of drills I can work on for double doubles? I have my full-in and full-out to a mat, and am ready to start on DDs. Any advice?
Thanks!
H - I'm sure this happens all the time, but do you think it's appropriate to treat girls differently with similar issues, some benefitting from coddling, spotting and the like, making first at States, while others, like my daughter, are punished so severely that we're considering leaving the...
I do hope this is the correct forum, and if it isn't then please feel free to move it wherever it is better suited.
At any rate: I'm trying to focus on getting roundoff double arabians, but I'm having issues with the blocking. I just don't get how to block properly out of it, whenever i try to...
DD has two meets this weekend!
The first one in Friday at 8:00 am. This is the Pink Invitational which she has been so excited to attend. We will go up Thursday night and stay, it is a little over two hours away. I would get up and drive in the morning, but she'd be a mess if I did that...
