Women Toe Circle in Level 7

[Clover]

Can a toe circle be done in a L7 bar routine? Is it considered a skill/element? Or is it just something to do in lieu of a squat on before jumping to the high bar?

DD loves doing toe circles, so I was just wondering.

Thanks!

You can do a toe circle in Level 7. One of our girls does it.

It's not used as a skill in our girls' routines, but a method to prevent a fall if the go backward on their squat ons.

My L7 daughter doesn't even attempt squat on, she always does a toe circle before jumping to high bar, has been doing it since level 6.

It technically is a skill..it's an A in the code.
But I would say for the most part it isn't done except to save a fall.
We do have one team in our area that every single girl level 5 and up does them..coach preference I guess.

It's a pretty standard move in routines here from L6 on - and a required skill in DDs category.
