    Women L6 bars deduction question

    What are the deductions for the following? Missing the squat on? Gymnast does the opening part of the routine and goes right into the squat-on from the prior skill, gets feet on bar but falls off. Putting an extra cast in before the squat-on (like they have in L5), but makes the squat-on...

    Parents Is success in level 6 a good predictor of success in optionals?

    The discussion started by Beamer on tough scoring in level 6 lead me to wonder, Do you find that the gymnasts that score well as level 6s go on to have more success in the optional years? It seems that my DD at this point has as many 7 skills as she does 6 and to about the same level of, or lack...

    Parents L6 weeding out?

    Madigym00 got me to thinking. Why is the scoring so difficult at Level 6? Is the aim to run out of town all the modestly talented gymnasts so that only the more talented set moves on to optionals? I ask the question honestly. From what I have seen this year, the scoring has been fairly...

    Women Level 6 meet report

    Today I had a level 6 meet that I felt I did very well at! First we had floor which is usually one of my best but today was my worst. My routine was going great, and my tumbling was super powerful all the way up to almost the end. I'm not really sure what happened. I did my full turn and hitch...

    Women Does anyone know what the requirements will be in the new level 6 next year?

    I don't think it is an exact comparison the level 7, so I am not sure what is going to be required for the new level 6. Does anyone know or have a link to the USAG website where it is listed? Thanks!

    Women New Level 6??

    So I competed level 5 last year and this year, but I have most of my level 6 skills. I have my back walkover on beam, my tuck on floor, my freehip and baby giant on bars. From what little information that is out about the new level 6 for next year, do you think it would be a possibility for me...

    Parents Meet Report! First "official" L6 meet.

    DD had her first "official" L6 meet this weekend. She did Judge's Cup a couple of weeks ago and did well but she doesn't consider it an official meet because it doesn't do any awards. Good warm up meet so she like it. She had a very solid meet. Not her best, vault was an almost disaster...

    Coaches New Level 6 music help

    I was hoping the CB community might be able to please help me out: I am trying to get a copy of the new Level 6 floor music. I have a few Level 5s who are working to "skip out" of Level 6 this spring and compete New Level 6 (optional) in the fall. They have the skills and are fully capable and...

    Women Level 6 Bars Dismount

    Ok, so the dismount for L6 bars is a tuck fly away...and gymnasts can do a layout fly away if they choose. No difference in scoring. So my daughter got her tuck fly away back in October. Perfect since her first meet was in Early December. BUT her coaches have made the decision that ALL of the...

    Parents First L6 Meet!

    I'm so sorry to brag...really. But I couldn't be openly super happy for my dd at our home gym's Meet. yesterday. And I'm just so freaking proud of her I want to shout it from the roof tops! Sadly, the parents at my gym get really pissy or annoyed when any one girl outshines the rest. So I just...

    Women Need advice L6

    Here's our story. There is only one gym in our town. The next gym is 30 minutes away in a bigger city. My daughters gym has done something I feel is dishonest and a bit shady. Her group of L5 girls were divided up after the season was over. The majority were chosen to try to go for L7. A few...

    Women Level 6 bars question

    In dd's meet this weekend, the bars scores for our team were really low. Does anyone know what the points are for different things? I know dd's was low partially because of missing her kip squat-on. She got both feet on the bar but then fell off. When she returned to the bar, she did a...

    My daughter's first Level 6 meet is coming up soon, and she is struggling w/ holding the regular handstand at the start of the beam dismount long enough...she is just going right from the first handstand to the side handstand (then twists down from there)...her hands place correctly for it all...

    Women Horrible first L6 meet

    DD (11) had her first L6 meet this past weekend. The meet started right on time and ended in good stead. The venue was open, warm and well-lit with plenty of seating that allowed for a clear view of all the apparatus. It was filled with talented, polite and friendly gymnasts, respectful and...

    Women Vault Scores - Level 6 & 7

    Just curious since we are heading into meet season. Is level 6 & 7 vault scored the same as level 5 vault? For example, if a gymnast is a level 5 and scores a 9.0 would that same vault get the same score if she were level 6 or 7? Are the deductions the same or greater in level 6 and then even...
