I was just wondering if anyone had good drills or advice for front layouts and front fulls. Another coach and I have had a few descrepancies between these skills. How do you begin teaching it? Do you teach it to arch all the way through, or tight arch then hollow?
Hi! So I don't know what is going on with me but I am struggling a lot with my full turn on beam and I kind of beam struggling with my half turn too which is making me extremely frustrated!! I don't know why but I always fnish with half my foot on the beam so I completely loose balance and fall...

Just curious- is there a standard deduction, as in 2.0 or something like that, for a full spot over the vault table? I am talking about gymnast runs, hurdles, straight jumps and the coach assists with the handspring portion of the vault. Not so worried about scores, really, just curious if...
Is it true they are worth the same? A rudi is harder to me... Also in level 10 is a front full front layout .2 bonus? Is it the same with a front pike? What about a rudi to back tumbling, is there a way to get bonus from that? Like a rudi to double full.
I was looking back at some clips when I was 12 (Before I got hurt) and I noticed that when I did front fulls I would quarter twist to my left, by the time I was upside down it looked like I was doing an aerial or side flip and then I would quarter twist to my right before I landed. So ultimately...
On the Today show, they said they should change the name of the Amanar to the Maroney. McKayla said she would like a vault of her own named after her. To me, that sounded like she is planning to show us her triple full at some point.
It looks to me like she has plenty of air time to toss in...
Because of an injury on my left ankle (don't have enough range of motion to go up to releve), I have changed my turning foot to my right foot.
I travel completely off the beam doing this skill (I fall to the left side if it makes a difference) and it is super frustrating! I also spin quite...
Hi again! This is my second post on the site, and I love it :) My niece is having trouble with her full turn on beam. I'll let her write about it.
Hi, I can't get my full turn on beam...I start flat foot and everything with my right foot in front and start to turn but when i get 3 fourths of...
I'm an "adult" gymnast. Actually, an ancient gymnast at 43. Two years ago I finally got my full twist thanks to Dunno, only to tear my ACL the very same day. I haven't done one since. I am close though but I have a question.
When I finally did get my twist off the tumbltrak, I used an X-Mat...
I have a gymnast who has a tender elbow and therefore limits the drills we can do for Handspring full twist vaults. Is there any suggestions for drills and techniques to achieve this skill.
Thanks
My dd is relearning her back full (to ultimately do more than a full, hopefully this coming season). Our new gym uses a different technique for twisting compared to our old gym. This seems like a big pain in the neck but must be a big deal since they are willing to start over. Old gym had dd...
I'm wondering if anyone can give me some tips for layout flyaway fulls. I have awesome layout flyaways but when I spin I get lost in the air and don't know where I am and lose my height. I'm also not staying straight after about 3/4 of the spin where I pike it around to land on my feet but also...
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.
DD has a front full front pike in her routine, and whenever she does it, it is very pretty. However, she gets her twisting direction mixed up when she twists, so sometimes instead of doing a full she does a 1/2 one way and then a 1/2 back. She is a righty, and her coach says she is getting her...
