Parents What is Your Child's Favorite Event?

[SupportingHerDreams]

My level 4 LOVES the beam. I feel like this isn't a very popular event and I am just curious. Does your child have a favorite event and if so what is it?

My daughter also loves beam. Also, hates bars. I wonder if that's a common combination?

Interesting! I wonder.

My daughter is a beam and bars girl. I think she really likes them both equally and they have both been her best events over the years.

Best on beam but loves bars even though the most tears have been shed over bars skills.

 

[ReluctantGymMom]

Bars! It’s her favorite and best event. It’s literally been carrying her AA since she started lol. She wishes we could get rid of beam as an event completely

DD16: Beam and bars, likes dancing on floor but tumbling is a sore point compared to her others. DD13 Everything besides bars!! Bar dismounts are ok in her books too. DD8 Everything about gymnastics! Probably least vault but not too bad.
Beam always gives me the shivers lol!

My dd is 6 so her opinion changes a lot, but I think bars. She has started declaring her love for beam recently, but generally loves it all climbing the rope was her fave the other day!

My daughter loves bars the best, but has come to love beam due to her own consistency. She realized recently that she hadn’t fallen off beam in a competition since 2016, and it makes it easy to love competing the event.

Wow, that is impressive! I definitely can't say the same about my daughter.

Bars, beam, vault in that order with floor a distant last. No cool tricks yet for her on floor, which makes it less than favourite

Beam and vault. Until this year, it was always beam and bars- she's graceful on both. Her vault has improved significantly and she's scoring well so now that's becoming her favorite.

Before 2016 she couldn’t stay on to save her life. The very season before this streak she fell off at every single meet. Sometimes twice. Ha!

Bars and beam, but when she's learning something new on an event she loves that one most also.

Vault and floor for one. Pommel for the other.
