Post any feedback you have on one of those two posts. Brigid would like to see wider discussion.
My own position is clear.
Multiple front somersaults landing forwards are MOST dangerous in terms of catastrophic injury.
FIG WTC should ban the double front, but not the double front 1/2 out. It’s far safer.
Trampoline for many, many years banned double front and triple front — but not the same elements twisting out. (I believe those skills are not longer banned, though I’ve never seen one in Tramp competition. Every trampoline coach knows how dangerous they are.)
MAG MTC should consider banning the Handspring triple front. (4 forward rotations total.)
“The evidence is quite clear,” he writes, “that some people do reach an elite level of performance without copious practice, while other people fail to do so despite copious practice.”
Hambrick and colleagues analyzed 14 studies of chess players and musicians, looking specifically at how practice was related to differences in performance. Practice, they found, accounted for only about one-third of the differences in skill in both music and chess.
Gym Momentum Camp is high intensity, focused only on high level Gymnastics.
NGTC is the full Camp experience: Gymnastics, Gymnastics, horse back riding, waterfront, movie nights, crafts, skits, Gymnastics, campfires, end-of-week Gym Show. A great chance to make new lifelong friends.

Tony had plenty of Canadians at Camp this year. … For some reason female gymnasts are keen on traveling to NY City. 🙂 Only the meanest coaches (e.g. Daire) don’t schedule a SHOPPING trip to the Big City.
See more of my photos. Tony has two photographers on site. I’ll link to those pics once posted.
