Yes...but you don't think you could do more with them?
Oh I'm sure I could. That's why I've been using the pits at Flipfest when I can.
Again, I'm not saying that a high level gymnast can't benefit from a pit. It's extremely useful at high levels. But I just can't see the presence of a pit heavily factoring into a decision on moving gyms for a young child. I just don't feel like its that important at that age, and I'd rather look at which gym has better coaches and better general equipment.
But like I said, it's just my 2 cents!
