How Do You Get Off Of A Balance Beam?
The balance beam is an apparatus used by women gymnasts. A gymnastics routine begins with a mount. After the mount, the gymnast will dance, flip, twirl, leap and balance for a minute to a minute and half. The routine ends with the dismount. The dismount is the gymnast’s method of getting of the balance beam. Depending on skill level, this can happen in several different ways. The dismount will be the last thing the judges see in competition so it needs to be landed well.
