Parents L3 requirments

[supernicegymmom]

Hi! My daughter competed bronze this past season and she really wants to do compulsory. and I think she’s about a level 3 skill level, let me know.

Beam- Handstand on high beam -Cartwheel on low beam

Floor-Front-Handspring -Back-Handspring (on thin mat) -Backwalkover -Frontwalkover

Bars- (inconsistent) double back hip circle - beautiful front hip circle -pretty clean squat on -kip

Vault- Front-Handspring over mats

Sounds like she has pretty much everything except ro bhs on floor. She will also need a leap landing on one leg and half turn on beam.

Be prepared for possible score decreases, as compulsory judging as much tougher. My DD did compulsory but we had some mixed meets with xcel gymnasts and the scoring differences are very noticeable.

Good luck!

Thank you! She has her split leap on beam and half turn I just forgot to mention them. We’ve been trying to get her RBH for a few months now but she’s to afraid to connect them.

Is she able to do it on a tumble track? Maybe start there first with a spot and then once she's comfortable go to the floor with a spot. Bhs are typically easier with the round off due to the momentum but the mental aspect can be tough at first. Maybe have her do some relaxation and visualize the skill at home. My DD hurt her ankle on that pass and developed a mental block but visualization helped get it back.

Yes, she has it on the tumble track, but she says she’s scared of doing it on the floor because it will hurt more than the tumble track will if she gets injured. We will try visualizing and meditating to help her feel less stressed, thank you!

Sounds like level 3 would be a good fit.
