in Canada you aren't allowed to practice in front of the judges before you start your routine, you would have been disqualified for that. WBTA has very strict guidelines about that. Nice tricks tho.

@tmwalkerm - Thank you for the kind comment. In NBTA, there is no such rule. If this were a WBTA event, obviously there would not have been the pre-routine practice that you see on this video. Again, it is appreciated that you took the time to watch and comment on the video.

I do baton too and I would say I am very good at it , but you i mean OMG you are like so fantastic. They should make baton twirling an olympic sport

Very nice solo, Allison. I remember it quite well, being in the audience at Notre Dame University in 1999.

not a fan of her Molly Majorette style freehand but geeez she executes some really difficult tricks flawlessly!

I received second place for this solo, but it did qualify me to go to Worlds in Birmingham, England, which was a blast.

[crimsonettegirly]

What placement did you recieve?

[twirl4cu]

Thank you for the nice comments! It's great to be able to share one of the most fantastic experiences in my life. Allison.

Nice solid solo! Oh how I remember the white shoes!

[UWTwirler]

Still a nice solo after all these years!  Congrads from an competitor from way back when we wore white shoes.
