    Women Level 6 floor routines?

    HI all-- Coaches/parents, any experience in scores for L6 floor routine 2 tumbling passes (ROBHSBT and FT) vs 3 (ROBHSBT, ROBHSFP, FT). Will DD score lower with only 2 passes if they are clean? do judges want to see 3 passes? thanks

    Men Quick Floor Routine Construction Question

    Can you connect an acrobatic skill to a dive roll? For example, would FHS Front 1/1 (C) + Dive Roll (A) be acceptable. The rest of passes will end in stick. This is for JO L10.

    Coaches Level 8 floor pass

    I watching a level 8 floor routine on youtube ... 9.4 was her score but she only did two passes? I thought 3 tumbling passes were required. She did a 1 1/2 first pass and fhs front layout front tuck for 2nd ... that was it.

    Women Floor question for coaches/those in the know

    We recently hosted a meet and rented equipment. The floor we rented was very hard and our team had an uncharacteristic number of falls. One of the parents working the meet asked the rental guys about it and they told him it's some kind of new harder floor that is to be the new standard. Has...

    Women Level 6 floor routine requirements

    I saw a floor routine this weekend from a level 6 that looked like the same elements in a level 5 routine but without the FSO FHS series... So the main elements were BHS BT, FT, split leap and I think a BHS. I was just wondering what the requirements are for L6 floor. I couldn't find it on the...

    Coaches Xcel gold floor tumbling pass ideas

    Hello. I'm new this season to Xcel. I have a gymnast that is gold. Her tumbling is a big struggle for her. Her first pass is a ROBHS. My hang up is her 2nd pass. Her front handspring is very weak so a front tumble pass is kinda out till we fix it. She doesn't have an aerial, and her front salto...

    Women Ending Floor Pose

    DD LOVES to see other team's ending floor pose. So as a fun little thread, I thought I'd see how everyone else ends their floor routines. DD's L4 end pose.

    Parents Critique this USAG level 4 floor routine?

    This past weekend was my 8 yr old's first level 4 meet. I'm attaching her floor routine. Before I tell u her score, can you please critique it - don't feel the need to hold back. I know her straddle jump could've been higher and her back extension roll less archy. What else? Also, what would u...

    Parents Level 4 floor score ? Judges

    Hello! My daughter is a new Level 4 this season. She is having a mental block after falling at practice and has "lost" her round off back handspring. So in competition this week she did a round off , stopped and then did 2 separate standing back handsprings with no connection. (For what it's...

    Women level 4 floor question

    I just watched a video of a girl at level 4 states. She did 3 backhandsprings, not 2. I rewound a few times to double check that I was seeing it right. I have no idea if she did it on purpose or what. Is this acceptable or not? A deduction?

    Parents Xcel bronze floor

    Is a handstand considered an acro element on bronze floor? Would a RO, backward roll (1st pass) and a separate handstand fulfill requirements? TIA!

    Men L5 floor question

    In the press handstand portion of the L5 floor routine, the text describes the skill as a jump to press handstand with no hold, with the bonus being to press up and hold for 2 seconds. DS does a nice press handstand without jumping, but he can't consistently hold it for 2 seconds once he gets...

    Women Slippery feet on floor......?

    My dd 17 is having a hard time on floor all of a sudden. She said her feet don't sweat and are very soft (she does not put lotion on them). When she front tumbles and tries to land, her feet are slipping and she ends up on her butt. She said she should be able to land the passes, she is...

    Women BWO L4 Floor

    Is there a different skill that can be opted in instead of the BWO during L4 floor routine. I know I read on here that they can do a BHS on the beam instead of the BWO at L5. Just wondering if there was a different skill that could be done here as well. My DD back is hurting her during this...

    Women Optional floor routine dilemma:(

    So I need some opinions. My 9 yr old DD is competing 7 this year. Last year, she had a cute floor routine for Level6/Gold. At the end of August, HC gave us the option of keeping last years floor routine, and just upgrading the tumbling, or picking new music and learning a new routine. My DD...

    Women Anyone else spending far more time on bars than floor an beam??

    I spend far more time working on bars and vault skills than on beam on floor! I would have been ready for my competition on floor and beam almost a year ago, but I just needed the time for bars and vault...although I am strong on bars and the yurchenko vault isn't that hard I think, it just...
