Thanks yet again MostepanovaFan.
Now I know what skills to focus on, as a coach. (Just kidding.)
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
The first skill I’d devalue is the first skill, the so called 1/1 twisting Tkachev (Shushanova).
What skill shown should be an H?
Triple back on Floor would be an H, for example. If it was in the code.

How about a full twisting Jeager? Love to see those encouraged.
H: triple on bars, the kim, dos santos 2, mo/gaylord, def
good list, bm.
H for WAG,
floor= double double straight, triple back, quad, triple front,
beam = double back on beam, double double dismount
bars – hop double, full twisting kovacs, full twisting jaeger,
I’ve been out of the gym for a while, but has any coach found a kid insane enough to throw a double back on beam?
Double back (and much more) is often done in circus on a beam supported by people. Have not heard of anyone training it on a competition beam.
How about a double full on beam? or even a 3/2 on beam? Would that be an H?
I’d like to see a double straight 1/2 out on floor a la Samantha Palmer from 2007 Worlds Tumbling:

I’ve always wanted to see a full twisting straddle hand on bars and a 3/2 shootover (imagine how scary that would be to train?)
A person willing to do a double back on beam should receive Z credit, and then be committed
