I've seen a couple threads lately about struggling with skills and it was interesting to see how some skills were easy for some to pick up and harder for others... so I thought I'd start a thread about it. I struggled with:
Level 4 - single leg shoot-through (I always fell forward) and ro bhs (I made it over, but it wasn't pretty )
Level 5 - vault (I could make it over ok, but I had the hardest time getting my steps) and casting high enough, especially on the high bar
Level 6 - bwo and dismount on beam (I never got them consistent, ended up hurting my back from going crooked so many times on the walkover and now I'm not allowed to do them on beam) and bars in general
Level 7 - giants (off and on the whole year; I think I only had 1 or 2 no fall bar routines all season) and cw cw on beam (I would lose focus after I made my bhs and then not connect it)
So far in level 8 every event has come with it's own challenges... right now the biggest thing is rehabing my injured knee and getting my skills back in time for States in March.
So what skills have you/your dd struggled with? Were there any that were really easy? I got my ro-bhs-bt and cartwheel on beam really easily.
