Women just for fun

[dmytv]

ok, so the new routines are out, compulsory and optional, and the new music is out; just wondering what everyone loves and hates about the new cycle! Ok I'll go first-hates
5. That they kept the mill circle- Hate this trick and think it adds nothing to bars.
4. 3 music choices for compulsories- yea? variety ;(
3. vault sucks for transition from 7 to 8. would have loved to have seen timers
2. options for kip, bhs on beam and c's for level 8 but no bonus- not sure worth the risk
1. moving the level system and whiney "susie" parents- look we did not make this system
loves-
5. no forward roll on new level 1 beam
4. better vault transistion for lower levels
3. elimination of stupid beam dismount for new level 5
2. inclusion of optional level 6 so those that don't have giants will still do well when begining optionals.
1 .change and improvment to an ever evolving system

Hates
Level Numbering Changes (I too have those Susie parents)
Mill Circle & Basket Swing
Split Handstand on Beam

Loves
New Music (I was really tired of both of the old music choices)
Optional Level 6 (All though I think that they should have gone about naming it differently without changing the entire numbering system, they could have called it Level 7a and Level 7b or something )
No front hip circle in New level 4 (old level 5)

Where can I see all the new information? Videos of new compulsories?

This isn't all the new information, but the appendices for the new code of points in on the USAG website. These answer a question some had on vault values for each level. Link Removed

I've looked everywhere for the new routines but haven't found anything. Can you tell me where to find them? My daughter will be moving from old level 4 to new level 5 this season. From what I understand she has to do a score out meet of old level 5 to make this move. We're hoping to get this done before the new routines go into effect so she doesn't have to learn 2 routines. Anyway, any info would be appreciated! We're dying of curiosity!;-)

I believe the routines are not released (except in the big code of points I guess). The skills for each level are listed however on the USAG website and I think I saw the music options there as well.

Is there an additional skill added to the (new) Level 4 routine to take the place of the front hip circle? Or it's the same routine, just without the fhc - kip, cast, squat on, jump to high bar, long hang kip, cast bhc, underswing, tap swings, dismount?

 

[AmandaLynn]

From what I can tell, level 4 will be: kip, cast to horizontal, cast squat on, long hang kip, cast to horizontal, back hip circle, under swing, counter, tap, counter, tap with 1/2 turn dismount.
