Question for coaches or judges:
Is there a deduction if the gymnast's hips don't contact the bar in the long hang pullover? If so, how much of a deduction is it? Thanks!
I can do a spotted pullover although i think my coach does all the work lol...but i just cant do it on my own...when i try on my own my hips get like 20cm away from the bar and then i just can't do it....im already working on arm and ab strength exercises but i want something for me to keep in...
Ok well this year my old coach allowed me to compete bars with pullover that i stepped into if that makes sense my new coach won't let me compete bars unless i can do a chin up pullover

Yay yay yay yay, I finally made my pullover :D :D
I've been trying since early Spring, just recently starting to get even close by my self (like, when the coach pointed out that I needed to bend my arms o.o).
AND LAST NIGHT I FINALLY DID IT!! By myself!! More than once!
Each time I felt like I...
Well i have my first competition in 6wks and need a swing pullover. Well i think i could do it if i knew a bit more about technique like when to tap, at the moment i am tapping like a normal swing just harder, where to tap etc and any other technical details i should know.

On the level 4 bar routine, the pullover that is at the beginning (sorry, don't know what the technical name is).....should that be slow and deliberate or fast yet controlled? I've seen it both ways and I wasn't sure which one or does it not matter as long as it's technically right? Also, are...
Good Day All,
I am new around here and have found this forum very helpful and full of information.
My 5 year old has recently lost her pull over which she had for a couple of months. She seems to be trying now to do it purely by strength, which I guess is good once she has to do it on the...
I know it's minor, but I'm so excited for her. I have to admit I felt like she would never be able to do it on her own. It's strange because she was getting close awhile back and just needed a little help and then it has seemed to get worse for the past few weeks. She missed a few days...
Is there any difference at all between a long hang pullover vs. 3/4 Giant?

Is there a trick to getting a baby giant/long hang pullover to look nice and quickly transition into the underswing in the girls lvl 6 bar routine? It seems like a lot of girls kind of flop onto the bar and struggle to get their heads up, while others just make it look so easy! Just curious.
I am looking for ideas of "fun" things I can get my daughter doing at home to help her get her pullover.
She goes to the gym twice a week has everything she needs to move on to the next level except her pullover. She really wants to be on the team (she is only 5) but cant get her pullover...
