    Which is harder,full twisting double layout or double twisting double tuck?

    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.

    Connecting FHS and front layout

    I have been working on trying to put a tumble pass together, and I'm not that experienced in doing so. For the FHS and front layout individually, I do fine, but it seems impossible to connect them together into a pass, on the tumble track or the floor. Is ther any good advice on that, or...

    Hey guys!! So I have a pretty annoying issue right now. I need a double full by june in order to try out for a cheerleading team. I can do a r/o hand full right now, and they're actually pretty easy and I don't find twisting particularly difficult. I've always been able to make the entire...

    layout versus whipback?

    Bella was doing ROBLO on the tumble trak earlier this week and one of the L9s mentioned that her layouts looked more like whipbacks. What is the difference? And what does she need to do to make it a layout instead?

    Twisting Layout

    My DD is just starting to master her RO BHS BLO but she is having a problem with her body wanting to start twisting. She feels it starting and then has to compensate. She told me it kindof scared her a little. Any idea why this may be happening?

    Help! Back layout!

    Layout to low???

    My form is pretty good on my layouts, but every time I feel like I barely make it around. It kinda feels like I'm going really slow, even though the roundoff back hand spring is pretty fast. When I do my layouts my arms kind of do an arm circle to my thighs. Could that be affecting it? I've been...
