[dreamingincinema]

how can that be her score? she did beautifully in this routine !

[Gymcrazy3363]

@dreamingincinema I was just thinking the same thing.,.! :/

[gracielgerzbek]

what was her score??

[marushk161]

@gracielgerzbek 14.550

[TinyAva93]

I just wish that she would point her toes on the release skills! Otherwise, good bar set.

[Gymnastsintraining]

I felt bad with her floor it didnt stand a chance, but her bars is just amazing! I'm sad with her results and she should have gotton better

[lololoeee1231]

she stuck the landing

[makeuplova1]

Not trying to be mean or anything but i'm a gymnast myself. And when she Kip she puts her shins to the bar not her toes!!!

[flipflopchick101]

@makeuplova1 I do the same thing. I personally feel like it gives you more torque so it doesn't make the kip or the cast look muscled up.

[iAngelaKara]

@makeuplova1 haha so do a lot of elite gymnasts. It seems weird but at their level they don't need the power that comes from bringing your toes all the way to the bar with proper form. Kips just come naturally to them.

[gabie100]

waw!!

[kittycatsrule86]

what is a "drive"???

from where he says she lost her drive.

[jimnastix123]

@kittycatsrule86 it means she lost the motivation

[greyskies34]

@kittycatsrule86 shes lost her "motivation"

[fishdude77]

i think he means that she lost her motivation to compete and train etc.

[Sassiiification]

that leotard is soo pretty *-*

[TNTgymchick]

oh my. i cant breathe during her whole routine. its amazing.

[Evanescing]

I love her new release! And she does it really well too it looks like.

[481095ymg2]

they did not give her credit for her bail here, only a simple overshoot.

[coley2319]

@481095ymg2 what is the difference between a bail and an overshoot?

[lilmissunperfect21]

@coley2319 theyre the same thing, just different names- like a clear hip or a freehip

[thailek]

@coley2319 the difference between a bail and an overshoot, in my experience, is terminology.

[iFlip2012]

No, she does that to keep from hitting the bar and for more power and it is allowed to do it that way.

[MisanthropistPro]

Do they get deducted when they have their legs apart during the giants?

[funky17620]

nope, as long as they are straight theyre fine

[Gr33nkiwi]

No, Bridget doesn't.

But, when Nastia does her giants she sometimes does.

[xTorresGirlx]

Amazing dismount !!

[boytoyville]
