    Parents Old Level 7 question

    Sorry, I admit, I'm a confused mom! My daughter is currently training for the new level 4 and we were never exposed to any of the option levels before. The gym my daughter started out at only went up to old level 4 and we would get to see other compulsary levels at different meets. At our...

    Women Level 7 vault question

    Another level 7 question. On vault how much of the score is height and distance of flight? Do judges take into account if the gymnast is smaller? If a 4'4" 55 lb 9 year old vaults after a 5'2" 110lb 15 year old she probably won't have as much height or distance. If the technique is good could...

    Women Question about scoring level 7?

    Is there a deduction for not hitting handstand on both the free hip and the giant? My dd hit her handstand on her low bar kip cast handstand into a free hip but just missed the handstand position on her high bar kip cast handstand into the giant. I thought they only had to hit handstand on one...

    Women L7 Beam Questions

    I'm still trying to figure out some things on L7 beam, so would appreciate thoughts. First, how long can a gymnast pause prior to a skill before there's a deduction? Second, is the gymnast required to have a 180 split on a bwo to get full credit on the skill? If not 180, what's the split...

    Women Judges, Somebody... Level 7 Beam Turn question

    Ok. One of our Level 7s wants to do a pivot left, pivot right in tuck stand. She wants to know if it is an A or B. I looked and can't find anything remotely similar in the code of points. She has a meet Saturday and needs to know if this will satisfy the B skill in case she falls on her jump...

    Women Level 7 Skill Requirements

    Anyone know, or know where I can find the level 7 requirements on each event. Like how many A skills, etc.. Do you need a series on beam? That kind of thing. Thanks!

    Women Level 7 Vault questions

    I was at my DDs meet this weekend and something caught my eye that I had never noticed before. When our girls were vaulting, almost all of them were hitting the vault table toward the front or middle. The other teams were hitting toward back of the table, so they were able to travel much further...

    Women 1st level 7 meet-not great with shining moments

    Truth is, her meet was a total bomb. She cried all the way home. She learned how it felt not to medal at all, and didn't like it. She said that she will make sure that never happens again:) She discovered that she wants no one's pity and does not like to be consoled when she is mad. That...

    Women Video for L7 USAG

    I have a gymnast who will be 14 in a couple months. She has never competed in USAG. I heard there's a way you can take a video of her skills and send it to them so she can start in L7 and not L5? She has the skills. Anyone done this before?

    Level 7 Requirements

    Does a Front Tuck step out, front handspring fill the requirements for the front tumbling pass for Level 7 Floor? My daughter can do this but cannot get enough rebound to execute the front handspring, front tuck pass. Her coaches won't let her do the first; its this or nothing. They say if she...

    Women L7 Scoring - Lunge Landing and Bar Dismount

    In my effort to learn this new L7 world, I am curious about a couple items that impact scoring. On floor - if you land a tumbling pass and then immediately go to a lunge position, is that considered a step? DD says it's not, and it may just be something for optionals. Second, one of the other...

    Women Does this level 7 beam have enough a b skills

    My daughters level 7 beam has all the right dances turns and leaps but all of a sudden the coach said she doesn't know (even though she made it up) if it has enough a and b skills. All because her mount is a press mount. She then does front walkover front walkover and a round off back tuck...

    Women Level 7 bar routine

    Hi everyone! This is my first post in chalkbucket!:p Ok, so I am a level 7 gymnast, first year. I got invited to do some level 7 at the end of last year ( last month of season), but I got very sick and performed poorly at states, so that didn't work out. So, I need to think about my bar routine...

    Women Repeating Level 7

    We learned a few weeks ago that my daughter would be repeating level 7. She started at a new gym right after state meet. A few weeks ago when my husband was dropping DD off one of the coaches approached him and said DD is doing really well and has huge potential. Coach said that she wanted to...

    Women L7 Beam Connections

    DD has her BWO BWO connection and her BWO BHS connection on the high beam. She said they were doing drills today on beam and has been asking about other connections. Are any of the following good L7 connections? FWO FWO, FWO BWO, FWO RO, or Handstand BHS. She would still be doing BHS (not...

    Parents Level 7 Bars

    I'm so excited for DD because she got her layout flyaway out of her giants today. She had a little bit of fear on this skill because of the speed coming out of the giants (and fear is not something she's really felt before so it was a new experience for both of us). Day one - she asked for a...
