I have one boy who is struggling with a back uprise on rings.

He has easily enough power in his swings. He has his support, his muscle-up, a set of 3-5 ring dips -- and while none of those is as strong as I'd like, all seem good enough that he should have the strength for a back uprise.

What consistently happens is he gets up to a support with about a 90-degree arm bend, and then drops back down to a hang. To me, it looks like he is having trouble stabilizing that halfway-down-dip position.

Y'all got any particular drills or exercises to build that stability at the end of a back uprise on rings? Alternately, is there some other factor I might be missing?

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
