Were you ever a gymnast? If you were, then how long did you do gymnastics for?

Yep I was a gymnast. I started when I was 5 and quit the very beginning of my freshman year. I finally realized that I was too tall for gymnastics and I wasn't getting any better because of it. A year and a half later I started pole vaulting and now my height is actually an advantage :yes:

yep, for 8 years....started when i was seven, quit at the end of the season when i was 14...so 2 years ago....oddly enough, i can do some gymnastics stuff better now than i could when i was IN gymnastics...like an aerial cartwheel (thats a cartwheel w/o hands for the gymnastics-illiterate

)...could barely do that when i was required to (7th year of gymnastics), on that bouncy spring floor, and now i can do one on a high school gym floor (which does have a tiny bit of spring to it, but it might as well be concrete compared to a gymnastics floor)...go figure *shrug*

I don't do gymnastics, mainly because i'm way to busy with school since i'm a freshman in high school. I'm also in track and in rodeo. I live 2 hours away from the nearest gymnastics gym. I live in a town of 400 people so our polevault system is kinda bad. Basically if you want to polevault you teach your self. I made it to state last year in South Dakota class "b". I cleared 8ft. as an 8th grader. Sometimes our coach will watch us vault but usually he's outside with the other track kids, so we dont' get any special attention.
