    WAG Does this meet requirements for Level 8 floor?

    My DD has had some tumbling issues (not her area of strength). Her new gym is playing around with her floor passes. They had been working hard on her front layout but apparently it just wasn’t going well. They now changed it to this (she used to do 3 passes at old gym but new gym does not to...

    Parents Level 8 beam composition

    I’m sorry if this seems ignorant...why does the flic flac step out done twice In series count as two bs with flight if in the code of points it says that any balance beam element may receive value part credit two times provided the element occurs in a different connection?

    WAG Level 8 beam

    Is there a judge who can look at a level 8 beam routine for me? Haha, I am a judge and still can’t figure out how a routine got the start value it did!

    WAG Level 8 floor?

    Would any judges be willing to give feedback on a level 8 floor routine? We don’t see anything that stands out as a big issue. My daughter is trying to figure out if it was a bunch of little deductions or if there is a bigger deduction she can fix.

    WAG Level 8 floor question

    can someone clarify something for me? With all the new deductions for level 8 I’m just trying to understand it all. My daughter is repeating level 8 due to being off 5 months due to surgery and just coming back. The “no deduction” for 3 passes is a B in each pass or a B in two passes and a A A...

    WAG One more level 8 beam question

    My dd’s coach has upgraded her routine, and as a result, she now has two back tucks in her routine. Her series is a fwo-bt and she also has a regular back tuck in the routine. I told her I don’t think two back tucks are allowed in level 8. Am I mistaken?

    WAG Level 8 Floor

    So my daughter will most likely be non weight bearing on her arm for up to 8 months. It's her lead arm, so one arm skills are pretty wonky for her. She would be working to compete level 8 this year. Floor is probably the only event she can do no handed. What are some passes she could do to meet...

    My daughter wants to compete a front handspring entry with just a front handspring vault. It is not listed as an option in the JO code of points for level 8. Does anyone know if she can compete that vault and what the start value would be?? She is a front tumbler and will eventually do the...

    WAG Another L8/9 beam question

    hey y’all! So with a kid who does BHS BHS series, would a BHS BLO be acceptable for a dismount? Or is that considered a third BHS? what would be a good option for someone who refuses the RO Exits? Is there a requirement to have a jump that changes direction? Or is that L9? For level 9 is the...

    WAG Level 8 beam question...

    So, my youngest daughter, 8 years old, just competed level 7. On beam, her series and dismount was BHS BHS BLO. I know that in level 7 you can't to 3 of the same skill...(right!?) and I think the plan for level 8 is to do BHS BLO step out and BHS BHS BLO as dismount. I know her coaches can't be...
