The possibilities for my inquiry seem limited:
(1) Round Off--R-RO or L-RO--(defined here by which knee is up in the hurdle);
(2) Twists and turns-- R (clockwise), or L (counterclockwise).
The ELITE Rightie gymnasts frequently perform L-RO, and L-twist, correct? I understand that is typically...
We moved before our daughter could complete her last compulsory season in the US. I'm curious what level her current routines in our new country are.
For bars: jump to low bar, Kip cast hs, clear hip hs, toe shoot hs, sole circle catch high bar, Kip cast hs, giant, giant, layout flyaway...
Anyone have any experience with scoring differences? The routines are the same and the judges are same ones who are at USAG meets for whatever that is worth. DD's team is usag, but they participated in a state rec league meet. She did well, but just curious how that typically compares to USAG...
I know there has been a lot of talk about Booster Clubs lately so I thought I would pass this information along from the USA Gymnastics website. The Webinar is 1 hour long and below is the description along with the link to register if you are interested.
ATTENTION MEMBER CLUBS! Booster...
This past weekend was my 8 yr old's first level 4 meet.
I'm attaching her floor routine. Before I tell u her score, can you please critique it - don't feel the need to hold back.
I know her straddle jump could've been higher and her back extension roll less archy. What else?
Also, what would u...
My daughter competed level 3 USAG last year but we moved and new gym didn't think she was up to snuff for USAG level 4 so she is competing level 4 TAAF in the spring instead.
My question is...If she wants to do level 5 USAG in the fall, would she have to do a level 4 score out meet first or...
Hey Everyone,
I've tried on three computers so far and I can't seem to get connected to the NJ USAG Men's Website. I was wondering if anyone else was having an issue so I can better diagnose if it is my computer(s) or the site itself. Here is the link: Link Removed
Thanks in Advance!!! :-)
It is now saying the videos from Worlds are not available in my country! I have always watched their videos, this is new to me.
:(
Edited to add that the podium training and other previous videos still work.
Proud mom moment! She did great and had so much fun! No tears and no falls and she did not forget her routines, very surreal day- 5th All Around and she said "I want to do that again mommy!" #hardwork #dedicationpaysoff!

Hello dear Community!
I am 16 and I am going to do an exchange year in the USA in January.
I started gym at age 5 until age 10. Then I quit and started again 2 years ago.
Of course, I want to train in the US too. The last few weeks I read a lot about the USAG system etc and I found out that...
I have been in gymnastics for a while now, but it have never fully understood the difference between the USAG and USAIGC programs. Also, can someone in USAIGC make nationals or the Olympics? :) sorry if this is unclear.
I know this is a little late, and most of you aren't still in compulsory, but if you are, how did you adjust to the new level system? I seemed to adjust fine... :)
My daughter competed copper USAIGC this season. It's the only program offered in our gym. Lately I've been having some issues with coaching and safety at her gym. She has been struggling with learning the handspring vault and needs that for the next level. On all other equipment she is at bronze...
I have been reading many posts of uptraining, and quitting and evil coaches (inc. my own...lol) and gym styles etc.
I like to discuss the USAG business with our head coach who is from Eastern Europe, and we giggle at the USAG enterprise. I find it interesting ( not bad in any way) Back in his...
I just went to purchase the Compulsory code of points from USAG and the shipping was $24.90 :eek: in addition to the $60 for the book. Is that a mistake?! Is there any other way I can obtain the materials?
I thought it would be interesting/educational, given that seasons are winding down/done and we are all looking at possible new levels/skills in the upcoming months, to get a feel for what those big gateway skills are for each level. People always talk about the kip on bars to go to L4, the...
Is there anyone that is familiar with the AAU program. I am in Florida, and our kids are currently doing well in competitions for the most part. However, there are lots of gyms moving to the AAU program. I was considering moving my compulsories to the AAU program and then just having a...
