Today my coach made us do roll back jumpups for having bad form on tumbling passes. It scared everyone (including me) into staying tight for like the first time ever (I am so bad about landing with my feet together in the roundoff), which is good. But it took the fun out of tumbling :( I wish I didn't have to choose between having fun and being good.

At my gym we also have punishments for not making skills at meets; the rule is if you fall or mess up or whatever you have to do 50 of whatever the skill was. I don't like this; meets are nerve-inducing enough as it is.

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
