I worked with this girl who was in her early 20s. I was telling her about my Level 10 dd, and she interrupted me to tell me that she had been a level 10 when she was 11 years old, and was one of Yoculan's "Jr Gymdogs." she was "so good" and just got bored with it and quit.

#1--never heard of the "Jr Gymdogs"
#2--level 10 at age 11? Maybe, but where we live there is only one gym training level 10s, ours, and I had never heard of her although she insisted she trained "right here" at the university. Hahaha!
#3--she went on and on, but it was so ridiculous I stopped paying attention. :)
 
Okay we have a new girl in our year who is a chronic liar, claimed she won worlds for sailing - if you won worlds why are you not training for the olympics? was my first question in my mind, but she also said that she got to level 6 in gymnastics but had to quit due to a dislocated hip and I asked her what kind of skills she did in her routines and she goes oh just the usual stuff like backwards round off, I just was like you clearly aren't a gymnast if you call something a backwards round off

Aah...The ever elusive, and highly technical backwards round-off has reared up it's ugly head and foiled another promising gymnastics career.:rolleyes:

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
