    WAG Practice Level 5, Compete Level 4

    My daughter competed old level 4 last year and moved up to the new level 4 this year. She almost has her kip, almost her double back hand spring, and absolutely loves the new routines. She probably falls within the middle 50% of her skills ability with the other girls, some skills better...

    WAG What's your gym doing with L5 and L6

    Just curious....now that it seems most gyms have made team level assignments and starting teaching routines, what is going to be the reality of the New Levels 5 and 6? Is your gym doing one or the other...or both? Our gym held a move up meet to score out of new L5. Everyone who would have...

    WAG Question about New Level 5

    My DD competed most of last season in AAU at old level 4. She did compete in one USAG meet at old level 4 where she scored a 35.7. Does she have to score out of new level 4 this season before she can compete at new level 5 (USAG)?

    Parents LVL 4 / LVL 5 Combined group

    Our gym just released the schedule for fall practice and they have combined lvl 4 and lvl 5 into one training group. Are the routines/skills that similar that it would make sense to have them practice together?

    MAG Level 5 rings change

    Interesting -- if I am reading the updates right, they removed the inlocate as a specified bonus at L5 and replaced it with an L seat hold. It's now a bonus for L6. This is interesting to me, because our boys' program director last year refused to teach this bonus to our boys -- he told us...

    MAG L5 parallettes

    What skills and conditioning might my L5 son enjoy on his parallettes at home? He wanted them and we found some yesterday, but other than a few things, he's not sure what to do. I thought, though, that the list of fun might be extensive.

    WAG Level 5 Beam Time Limit Opinions

    I practiced with the level 5's today on their beam routines timing them and I noticed how short the time limit was. One minute and ten seconds. I think it is the same as the last routine but while the girls were doing their routines, they remarked on how cut close the time limit was. I myself...

    WAG Level 5 End Poses

    Question, it says you can do anything as long as you are not standing up. So I'm wondering if I could end in a elbow stand? Would this be okay since I would not be standing up?

    WAG Level 5, 6 7 bar dismount

    So after looking at the level 5 bar routine and reading the requirements for level 6 and 7, what dismount would most L6s do? L5 does a flyaway, L6 requires only a min of an A dismount so from my understanding would be you would not have to do the flyaway and then L7 says the dismount with a...

    WAG Level 5 extension roll

    In the new level 5 they do an extension roll, up into a handstand, then finish down on their toes in a pike position. What part on their toes are they suppose to land on in the pike position? The very tips like when you are en pointe or the bottom of the toes like in relieve? It was a big...

    Coaches New level 5 bars. Clear hip/stalder/sole circle

    The new level 5 bar routine gives the option of clear hip, stalder, or sole circle. Are most gyms going to do the clear hip? How are you deciding which skill to do? Thanks:)

    MAG very happy L5 team

    Small meet yesterday, but our guys really had a good day. The team came in second, which is by leaps and bounds their best finish this year. DS made all three bonuses on pbars, managed a cast out of his kip, and had a good FHS. He actually won pbars in his age group, but I think he was more...

    Parents 2nd level 5 meet report

    Dd had her second level 5 meet at an invitational this weekend. 3 weeks made the difference on bars. She did get her long hang kip, had some form issues and got a 7.75. She was a bit disappointed in the score, but I told her it was a huge improvement over having to scratch 3 weeks ago...

    WAG Deduction for over time limit - level 5 beam

    Hi all, My daughter had her very 1st competition recently. She competes at level 5. The Judge told her that she was over the time limit for her beam routine. Does anyone know how much this deduction is? Is it a fixed deduction or is it incremental (i.e. the longer she is over the time, the...

    Coaches trying to improve my L5 vault

    Hi there, I don't know what to do about my vault. I can't get off the vault table. My coach tells me my pre-flight is okay and I got my run down from 5 seconds to 3.4. Can anyone tell me what is going wrong? Drills I can do at home? Here are some video's of a meet I did in December: Level 5...

    WAG Kadee's 3rd L5 Meet

    MAG DS's first Level 5 meet...

    He had a pretty awesome meet! These are all new routines and new scoring this year, so it was pretty confusing! The whole team had three things wrong with their pbars routine, so they have to fix those, but other than that, just lots of little nit picky things to look for. Out of 12 gyms...
