    WAG Double twisting double layout

    What is the point of the double twisting double layout? It is the same value as the Silvas and it is way harder! Only 2 gymnasts are competing it at this point. Moors and Skinner. So why don't they just compete the Silvas instead? R they waiting for worlds to let it be named after them?

    WAG Tsuk Layout - Are they allowed in L8?

    DD tried a tsuk layout for the first time today. She thought it was a lot easier and she could get more air out of it than her pike. Is that an allowable vault at L8? I understand that it's a 10 SV at L9, so figure she needs to compete the pike this year. She's got a good pike, but she...

    WAG Layout dismount.

    I have a fear of do a layout dismount on beam. I always tuck. Does anyone know how to fix this?!

    WAG How get the pike out of the back layout?

    So DD is doing RO BHS BLO and she gets around ok and has good height but the landing is some what piked. What do you do to fix this? I have no intention of coaching her or helping her myself. I am just curious. I don't really know the mechanics of this skill. I am thinking that perhaps she...

    WAG Piking double layout dismount!

    WAG Flyaway layout value

    Our gym doesn't have a codebook. My coach and I were wondering if flyaway layout is an "A" or a "B". Or for those who know the Canadian code/requirements (our gym doesn't have these either), are you allowed to compete flyaway layout in P2? I already compete a tuck but the layout is much...

    WAG Front Layouts/front somi step out round off (flic) layout

    Okay so this year I am competing level 7 and for floor I have a few options for my tumble rows. Right now they are Handspring front and Round off flic layout unless I get some new skills. Currently I am pretty close to getting my full twist and can land it upright on my feet on a mat in the pit...

    Coaches Front handspring layout troubles

    We have a gymnast who has beautiful tumbling all around but when she goes to do her front handspring layout there is a huge lack of lift, she seems to be piking just slightly. My issue is, in terms of twisting in the future, what is the modern perspective on the easiest way to twist a front lay...

    Round off back tucks and layouts... going backwards

    So, long story short, I started practicing round off back tucks, my coach said it doesn't look like a back tuck at all, so i should start doing pikes, I can't pull up my pikes, so they end up being layouts. :D So, now I'm training back layouts, but whatever the position is, I can't seem to get...

    WAG Front Layout and Front Layout fulls

    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?

    WAG difference between front aerial and layout dismounts?

    dd is likely doing a front aerial dismount on beam this season (L7). I asked her the difference between this and a layout but she couldn't explain - or I should say that I couldn't visualize what she was saying... Can anyone help me understand the difference? and is this a typical dismount for...

    WAG back handspring back layout step out

    Hi. My daughter is having a little trouble doing her bhs back layout step out on beam. She always has trouble keeping squared on the beam. At level 8 she had so much trouble doing bhs, bhs and sticking it. She always came out of it crooked and fell off beam. So her coach modified her beam and...

    Back Layout help?

    I'm aware that I posted a question about my back layout before but my question is a little different this time. On with the question: So my back layouts are more of a whip than a layout. I can't seem to get a high enough set for the layout. My coach said that I'm throwing my shoulders back. Not...

    Low back layout?

    Hi, another question from me. Haha. Anyways, it's about my back layout on floor. I know that I don't have a video of it so it might be a little complicated to help, but I have a fast round off BHS and when I do my back tucks I have a high set but when it comes to doing a layout I just can't seem...

    Height for Back Layout

    Another dumb question from me -- how high does a level 7 layout need to be? DD has her layout and is being told she has great in-air body form, but they'd like to see it higher. She's being instructed to throw her arms harder (my words not hers). To my completely untrained eye it looks...

    Back layout with a full twist or more

    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...

    Dismounts Out of Giant Swings/ Layout Shape

    Another question coming from DD: why do most girls do layouts out of giant swings instead of tucked flyaways? Unlike on floor, there doesn't seem to be a requirement in L7/8 bars for a layout. Does a layout control the swing more? Do most girls find it easier to do the layout? Also, Mr...
