I posted a while ago about my hand slipping off the bar coming out of handstands — while I haven’t got new grips yet I was able to get a new skill — supposedly the “hardest skill in the gym” which I’m kind of shocked. Here’s the skill:
I still don’t have giants...
Anything to help improve my...
Hi all!
Short Stack just finished her Level 5 season. One of the coaches has strongly hinted that she will be moving up, although nothing is official.
I highly doubt that Short Stack will be moving up to L7. She is exactly the gymnast that L6 was designed for--good with the L5 skills but not...
When i do my full turn on beam, my bent leg slides from passé to coupe. Is this a deduction? And what other deductions can you get for this specific skill?
Nice way to end summer training - getting her full out dismount on bars. So funny how some skills come easier and then some seem like they take forever... Full in - nope that didn't work, Double layout - nope couldn't get that either. I thought it was going to be a double back...
If anyone is looking for some gymnastics entertainment.. My girls and I just watched two gymnastics movies, Full Out and Raising the Bar. While we didn't enjoy Raising the Bar ("It's a gymnastics movie, so we'll take what we can get"- Caitie), we all liked Full Out. The girls both liked the...
I have a question that is not too relevant for any JO Level, but I think it is a basic thing I was always interested in.
Everyone knows that the more split the legs, the more beautiful walkovers and kickovers look and the better is the technique. However, some kids seem just not built for...
Hi I have a few gymnasts who are in IHSA which is the Illinois high school association. They follow that rulebook when competing for the park district. I am not currently with the gym anymore so I am not sure if rules have changed.
Anyways
A few girls have a front full as a tumbling pass on...
My friend wants to compete a front full (on floor) this year as an Xcel Platinum. Is that a C skill? C's are unallowable for our division and we haven't been able to find where it says the value parts for skills.
Thanks!
Coach wants me to compete an aerial full dismount off beam in level 8 or 9.
What is the skill worth (A, B?), and does anyone have a video? I can't find one, and I'm a kid who needs to see it before they do it.
Thanks for the help!
Never any problems on full turn (on beam), until she stepped behind at comp last weekend. Now she can't do it at all without stepping behind (and thus devaluing the skill). Anybody got any great full turn tips?
Hi all,
This is my first post. My son is 6yo and is just finishing up his first 8-week session of gymnastics. For the next session, he'll be taking two hour-long rec classes at the gym. He loves it and seems to be picking things up quickly. He's seen some of the team kids at the gym and wants to...
DD has been working on her full turn at home and I was wondering where her "bent " leg is supposed to be? And is it supposed to rest against the other leg throughout? She would ask at the gym normally, but she is currently on break!

Bad quality video but my back layout on rod floor, and my Front layout full off tumble track. My coach is wanting me to start back halfs, but I feel like I pike too much in my layout to start halfs. How do I take the pike out? Also when I do start...
i have a girl who tends to spiral off the beam as she turns. How can I help her to not do this? She has a dance background, so she knows how to turn...on the floor.

Do you think you get better coaching at a college camp or someplace like Woodward? Is it more concentrated gymnastics at a college camp or a gymnastics camp? Are the college camps geared towards younger kids or upper level optionals? Does going to a college camp do a gymnast any good when it...
