About Me:
Competing in Texas, I was lucky to have watched some of the "greats" growing up: Bonnie Palacious, Ami Palmer, Tina Escamia, Barbie Horner. And had the pleasure of taking private lessons with Frances Winkle, now Frances Whitley. My coach was former feature twirler for The University of Texas at Austin, Lynn Dell (Schoedel) Harrell.
My idol growing up was Corrie Jordan. She won the 3-Baton National Title three times - in 1983, 1984, and 1987. And hence, my favorite event was 3-Baton.
I have some video from the 83 nationals and hope to upload some final performances.
The only time I ever witnessed a perfect "10" was when Glen Bittenbender performed at a nationals. Unfortunately, I do not remember what year that was.

Hi, you may know of my mom and aunt... Melissa and Jessica Perez. They twirled in the 80s USTA as well, and are from Texas. Now, I live the twirling lifestyle competing mostly in American Twirling Festival.

I can't wait to watch these old video's. I'm one of Jerry's girls from after his "retirement." It is so exciting to be able to see some of the great competitors I saw at the tail end of their careers.

I believe the number of twirling competitors peaked in the early 1980's. At Nationals, at that time, you had to qualify in your age group because there were so many contestants. You might have had three qualifying rounds before even getting to your age group. Now, I think the sport has dwindled substantially in the U.S, which is very sad.
