    Coaches Level 8 floor pass

    I watching a level 8 floor routine on youtube ... 9.4 was her score but she only did two passes? I thought 3 tumbling passes were required. She did a 1 1/2 first pass and fhs front layout front tuck for 2nd ... that was it.

    WAG Level 8 passes

    I am coming back from a broken ankle and I'm going to be competing the next meet this weekend. I am watering down my floor routine as it's a lot of pounding on my ankle. Can I compete with just 2 passes. They will be round off whip half and then front layout punch front. I have enough A's and...

    WAG Level 8 meet question

    Does the Psuk have a lower start value then yuerchenko? Also I notices some girls front pass consists of front handspring, front lay front pike and other girls don't add the front handspring in. What are the pros and cons to this and does either way fullfill the level 8 requirement?

    1 1/2 back twist ... fhs front layout ... back full twist 1 1/2 back twist ... fhs front full ... back full Two different floor routines ... can they do these passes? Am I missing something not talking about leaps and jumps just tumbling passes.

    Coaches Level 8 Bars

    So the general consensus is that giants are a necessity at level 8. However, giants are a skill that I don't think will ever happen for me. I have a shoulder injury that prevents me from being able to fully open them, & taps have always been a weakness for me. I will be competing level 7 this...

    WAG What is the hardest thing from L7 to L8?

    What is the hardest part about in the USAG System from L7 to L8? I am talking about average L8, nothing like double back dismount on bars or so. I guess, the main differneces are the pirouette or bar change on bars, the added front salto and full twist on floor, acro series on beam and of...

    MAG Level 8 Pommel

    My son's coach wants him to do his level 7 pommel horse routine for level 8. I know he had the magyar sivado in it. He did all the 7 bonuses. Will this work for a level 8 routine? Will it be successful as a level 8 routine??

    WAG Clueless about L8

    Our province just switched to the JO program, and everyone (even my coach) is pretty lost. Reading through requirements, I seem to be L8, but I'm wondering what your "typical" L8 routines skills on each apparatus are. Thanks so much for the help!

    MAG Level 8 P Bars

    Is it possible to make a Level 8 Pbar routine WITHOUT a press to handstand? DS has trouble with it due to injury so I am just wondering if a decent L8 routine can be made with out it.

    Hi y'all! I'm training level 8 in a super competitive gym in region 1 and my coaches want me to have a 10 SV on everything. What are some vaults I could do that aren't yurchenko entry (issues with that)? Thanks!
