Is there mascot seriously "bugs"?

I'd be so embarrassed!
On the other hand I love that Whitney song, so I was excited to hear it!

Just saying. People who can't do doubles and really can't teach them really shouldn't criticize. Not pointing out anyone. Just venting.

Did the person that taught you how to double throw a double while teaching you? Your reasoning is irrelevant.

Actually yes. So maybe it isn't.

Well I, along with hundreds of other coaches can teach doubles but are unable to do them for whatever reason. Does that make us less credible of coaches?

I'm going to play devils advocate here, I feel less comfortable teaching skills I cannot do myself. It's is because when I coach my kids I don't tell them what to do, rather question them on how to do things and the physics behind it all so that they can self correct and perform the skill over, better. So Before you ask, YES I can double, and yes I can also switch kick double basket, yes I can out fly most my flier.... BUT ON TRAMP, way to old to get up on people.

This is not to discredit other coaches as I learnt a lot of my fundamentals from people who could not do the skills asked.

But I do find it easier to explain skills and correct technique when I have gone down the same path they are currently on.

Im sure Debbie Love doesnt have to show you her double to be able to teach you a correct double. Your point is invalid move on...

My point is quite valid, showing there is more than one coaching style that works... I also stated I was not discrediting anyone, but purely explaining I find skills I can do myself, easier to explain and pass along to my athletes. Think outside box people, both sides have positives

And if you going to name drop, I'm pretty sure victor Rosario can double and had a program full of them! Two sides to every story

You see that blue link that says "Reply"? Yeah well thats what you use when you want to directly respond to someone. My comment wasnt directed towards you, if I wanted to respond to you I would have quoted you like I am now... But since we are on topic being able to execute the skill would merely be an added bonus. I know many people that can do skills but are no where near qualified to teach the skill. If you can teach then you can teach, and that is all that matters. I can tell you how it feels when I double, but that can vary from person to person. However technique never changes, and its technique that gets you through skills.




So yes being able to do what you are teaching can be beneficial but by no means is it a requirement. (This isnt directed towards you)

They were good, I thought there were more "oranges" in there. Guess they are spread throughout Atlanta though. (Especially now that orange is medium. )

No i meant as in a lot of Stingray girls are on the team. Not just orange ones lol. And they are coached by a Rays coach.

One of my all time peeves and I love gum. You would never see one of my Bows and Arrows athletes with gum at practice or performance. And those guys could be sneaky!

After skimming through the 'under rotated doubles' discussion.....

I came across the only post that makes sense and made me smile I love getting the opportunity to watch Bow and Arrows

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

This is not Senior Elite specific, but that video made me actually think about it right now.. Are elbows together on the clap in jumps not stressed that much in gyms or is it actually taught to have them apart? I know sometimes girls can't put them together due to anatomical restrictions, but I think it looks so sloppy with elbows not together and I didn't know if people were taught to do it like that or it's just not stressed to NOT do that.

I would assume it's just not stressed. I know it was stressed a lot where I cheered and now my elbows automatically go together when I clap. When I try not putting them together, it's actually kind of difficult for me.

Ohhh my gosh. I have two pictures on my phone of that one and "join the dark side we have cookies"
