    Floor Routines in General

    This is a general question. Do most gyms create each gymnast new and individual floor routines? We have a gym in the area that will pass down routines from one gymnast to another including same music. Few of us were having a debate on this. The gym we are at hires a special choregrapher to do...

    layouts and fulls in floor routine

    in a L7 floor routine, does a full fulfill the same requirement as the layout? i know they have the same value but im asking if a girl can do a full and skip the layout. at our meet, one of the coaches told the girls to a full as the first pass and a tuck for the last. i always thought that a...

    split leaps in level 3 floor routine!^^

    does it matter how much split the leap has in level 3? because our girls are little and we cant seem to get them to split very much and at meets most other gyms are just about or they are 180 split, but it doesnt seem to affect their score. if they do need to be 180 or a little below, are there...

    level 3 floor routine

    I had a couple of questions relating to the level 3 floor routine. First, what should a gymnast do if she does not complete the roll portion of the handstand forward roll? (handstand back to lunge instead of roll) What is the deduction if the skill is repeated (correctly) vs skipping the roll...

    Level 5 Floor Routine

    Kathy got a 8.35 on floor this past weekend at her first level 5 meet. Not high enough to place, but high enough to make her mama proud! :) She scratched on bars, and I know she was dissapointed, but I could hear her cheering for her teammates louder than anyone, which made her mama even...

    Parents Level 7 floor routine

    Olivia's floor routine is done, minus the tumbling and leaps. So I guess you can say it's her Level 7 dance that's done! I posted the first attempt to my vimeo videos, just click on the link in my sig. She's working with her choreographer/coach in the video. I can't wait for it to be 100%...

    Level 5 Floor Routine Deductions (Video)

    Alex slipped and rolled her ankle during her first Level 5 floor routine doing the hitch kick toward the end of the routine. She then was behind the music and left out the next element. She scored a 7.1 on the routine but I am curious what the total amount of deductions may have been for those 2...

    Compulsory Floor Routines

    I am from Canada, so I am just curious about splits being included in the floor routines for L4, L5, and L6. Our club is going to the US for a meet next year and lots of our girls that will be compulsory levels, don't have splits all the way down, some aren't even close. What about those girls...

    Not Liking Your Child's Floor Routine

    When my daughter was promoted to level 7 back in February, she inherited one of her old teammates floor routines. I like the music but not the routine. We paid a very small price to the former gymnasts to teach my daughter her floor routine. It meets all the requirements but I feel it is lacking...

    patriotic songs for floor routine (w/ or w/o lyrics)?

    hey guys, my gym asked me and another coach to choreograph routines for 5 different "levels" we have at our gym. it is for national gymnastics day, but we have to have it choreographed by mid july. the theme is "olympic showcase", so i guess patriotic songs would sound best...any other songs...

    My bubba's first floor routine

    My beautiful little girl has been in the gym at least once a week since she was about three months old and she is starting to copy what the 'big girls' are doing at training.:) It is the cutest thing I have ever seen! (I may be biased however ;)) Check out my youtube account in my sig to watch...

    Level 4 Floor Routine

    At a recent meet, several gymnasts from the hosting club eliminated the back handspring from the final move, a round-off back handspring combination. How much of a deduction did this cost the girls?

    Compulsory floor routine deduction splits

    What is the deduction if the gymnast when doing the splits in L4-6 floor routines, touches her hand down on the ground when it shouldn't be? For example, my daughter's most recent meet, she said she touched so she wouldn't fall over. Is that a fall? Just wondering because floor is her hardest...

    Question - Level 3 Floor Routine / Scoring

    My daughter's team has a local, non-sanctioned meet this weekend and I have a quick question regarding the Level 3 floor routine. (I'd ask our coach, but she's been away a few weeks for a variety of reasons). At our last meet, I have seen a skill done one of three different ways: 1. lay on...
