Sanne says the light over Beam is somewhat bothersome. There are shadows. But her team can handle it.

Simone’s new Beam dismount undervalued by FIG

YES, everyone agrees it’s absurd to up-value double double by only 0.1. This is the hardest skill in WAG.

Tumbl Trak Air Floor

My favourite air floor is the Tumbl Trak Air Floor. It comes in 3m, 4.5m, and 6m lengths. I recommend you get more 3m sections rather than the longer versions as it gives you more options for configuration.

Use the Air Floor as the last step before the competition floor.

Lisa Simpson training Beam

With coach Lugash.

There are a lot of Gymnastics references in The Simpsons. Many of the writers had kids who did Gym.

NEW Air Floor Pro

I’m using the old Air Floor Pro every day in Bermuda. We have two.

I like it BEST for Beam. Next BEST in the vertical position for Bars and Handstand work.

I personally don’t use the Pro much for Tumbling preferring the regular Air Floor. At the same stage of skill learning where you might want a Pro, kids in Bermuda use Rod Floor instead.

However, the newest version of the Air Floor Pro is both more durable and lighter. Both big improvements.
