What are the gymnastic specialities?

Answer 1

There are six different types of gymnastics. These are; womens artistic, mens, rhythmic, trampoline and tumbling, acro, and group.

In womens artistic gymnastics, there are 4 events; vault, uneven bars, balance beam and the floor exercise. Women can specialize in any of these events or compete in the all-around.

In mens gymnastis, there are 6 events; floor exercise, pommel horse, still rings, vault, parallel bars, and the high bar. Again, men can specialize in any of these events or compete in the all-around.

In rhythmic gymnastics, there are 4 events; clubs, hoops, rope, and ball. Women can specialize in any of these events or compete in the all-around.

In tramp and tumbling, there are 4 events; trampoline, synchronized trampoline, double mini trampoline, and tumbling. These gymnasts can specialize in any of these apparatuses or compete them all (however there is no all-around competition)

In acro gymnastics, there different events based on who makes up the group. There is; women's pair, women's group, men's pair, and mixed pair.

For group gymnastics, there are two events; group jump and group floor exercise which each squad competes in.
