Anyone have any great insight into why the big change for westerns this year. It makes no sense to me. It seems to help the smaller, weaker regions and hurt the bigger regions. For example, region 2 last year sent about 65 kids to westerns, this year they will send 96. Keep in mind they only had...
What are some of the qualifications to make it to Nationals as a level 9?
With the understanding that you have made it to regionals
Is there a specific score you must make at Regionals.....or do they take a percentage of all the top scorers in AA......
I am so curious because no one seems to...
Dd had a very uncharacteristic floor.Fell on bhs 1 1/2 punch pike.She said she made it to high.Big step to the side on her fhs full and landed funny on her fhs whip so she could not pike out of it.Score 7.95:(.
Ofcoure she was very upset.Went out to the bathroom crying.I thought she is going to...
My dd is having a pretty good Region 8 - Level 8 season. She may or may not qualify for Level 8 regionals this weekend. It will be close. My question is should a gymnast who does not qualify for Level 8 regionals, move to level 9 the next season. I kinda of feel that qualifying to regionals...
Someone mentioned to me today at a meet that I might be getting deducted for not fulfilling floor tumbling requirements at level nine, so I wanted to ask around here.
Due to a bum shoulder, my passes are currently:
Round off Full
Round off back tuck punch front
running front full
I know...
Vid is now up on youtube.I don't like the HD version.It seems like it is in slow motion.Need to find another format to upload the vids.Just does not seem to work very well with my camcorder.
YouTube - Geat West Gymfest 2009 Level 9
in levels 9 and 10, the start value of routines isn't necessarily 10, correct?
but can the routines be out of 10.00 if you add enough difficulty to the routine?
:) just wondering. thankss
Well we have our gym meet comming up this weekend.Dd has been practicing hard on bars and has been making her goals every day.Beam she seems more confident too.Bars and beam did not go so well the at the last meet.
She feels pretty good about herself and told me she thinks she can qualify for...
I guess after this meet nothing should surprises me anymore.It was a small meet.One age group for Level 9.So I guess anywhere from age 11 to 17 or so.
Started out on bars were she did bad the last time.She worked really ard over the last week and although her score was not great she improved it...
Scores are up a little from last meet except bars.Bars was bad.I think I counted 4 falls.Missed her kip on highbar.Touched the floor comming out of the overshoot.Then stopped and chalked up.Got back on and felt like she did not have enough chalk,so got back down and chalcked up some more.Back up...
Tonight I'm competing in my first level 9 meet and i'm 25... I need all the luck I can get! I haven't had the opportunity to train in about two months... This could be a disaster!
what are the time minimum and maximum for a level 9 beam routine in USAG? My friend's routine is about 45 seconds including bonus jumps. She has very little dance........Is this fine?
HI
Im already thinking about level 9. Im a level 8 though. Just wondering what are the options for bars dismount level 9? I have a really high layout flyaway but i have trouble getting away from the bar. I always over rotate my layout flyaway and land on my back but i do come close to the...
I was wondering the startvalue my daughter would have with these tumbling passes on floor.
FHS Fronfull Fronttuck,BHS 1 1/2 punch front and FHS Frontwhip Frontpike.
Dance acro will probably be Sideswitchleap Popa and roundoff wolfjump
1 1/2 turn and straddled Shoshunova (spelling?)
Does anyone know if there is a compositional deduction at level 9 for not having front giants? Our girls(region 2) scored on average 9.1 (at westerns)with beautiful routines. The girls that had front giants seemed to score 2 or 3 tenths higher for equally executed routines. Thanks!
Hey everyone!
My name is Indiana :) I'm training at level 9 and I can't believe I have only just found this site! I'm looking forward to hopefully meeting other gymnasts and other gymnastics crazed people such as myself.
Have a great day to everyone! I'm off to the gym :jump: Feel free to say...
Hammy or anyone else, Is a double layout full and a double back tuck (or) pike the same value? Beam bhs/blo how much more that a bhs bhs? Floor, FHSP FLO(full) or double? Thanks Again!
Hammy will probably know these questions....is a bh/bt the same value as a bh/blo? What about a double twist dismount? Is a 1 1/2 the same value? She can do her side ariel and working the front. Are they the same value? Thanks!
