I've been searching youtube for floor music but instead i watched floor routines, i came across some floor routines with words/lyrics but i thought you weren't supposed to have lyrical floor routines. I want to do a dubstep (scary monsters and nice sprites!) HELP
I used to be looking school gymnastics and the ground exercises that stand out to me are those with first-class pump up track and my favourite track i've heard but is and instrumental remix variation on lupe fiascos 'The exhibit is going on
I think it's changed a little bit because when I was a gymnast we weren't allowed to have any type of vocals in our music, whether than be oh la la or actual words. But I noticed Gabby Douglas' floor music had vocal sounds in it, which was obviously allowed. From what I could find, floor music is still not allowed to have any lyrics, but it can have vocal sounds if the voice is used as an instrument, like the humming in Gabby's music. So if you want to do the Skrillex song you'd have to make sure the minute or minute and a half (depending on what level you are) that you use has no words, I think it's a whole point deduction for having words in your floor music. This is for competitive gymnastics, I think in college it could be a little different, but I don't know the rules for that, I'm assuming you still can't have music for competitions but if it's for an exhibition show or something it would be fine. I think the videos you may have seen were from exhibition shows such as the Kellogg's Tour of Champions or something where they aren't actually competing, they're just showing off and having fun!
