Ana Porgras - 2008 European Gymnastics Championships - Floor

[13shifter]

she really can dance to anything

one of my favourite to win the AA in London

I think she decreased her difficulty at worlds and hasn't brought back the harder skills yet. But then again I'm an amateur and i just started watching gymnastics so who knows if I'm right.

Actually, this tumbling is easier than her worlds tumbling.

Here her 1st pass is front tuck walk through RO double tuck, at worlds it was a full in.

then her 2nd pass is just a front full, I think. At worlds it was a 2.5 punch front layout.

Then her 3rd pass is a 2.5 twist, at worlds it's a double pike.

And then the last pass is harder, double pike instead of double tuck.

So at this meet, for tumbling, she has an A, a C (in old code), another C, a D and a D. 1.5

At worlds, it's E, D, B, D, D 1.9

She did compete a punch double front at least once, but she didn't land it. If she could get that back and maybe get rid of the double tuck, she would increase her difficulty by 1 tenth. Her start value is different because they now count less elements, and 3 have to be dance. So only 5 tumbling skills. She is coming back from a knee injury, though.

YAHHHHH. Good news all your Romanian Ana fans - Ana will compete next weekend at the Romanian International meet in Ploesti (spelt wrong?). Wish her luck and keep her in your thoughts. We need Ana in the good health. We need Ana to be back to the dynamic way she was so that Romania will stand on the Top of the Podium at the Worlds. Amelia Racea (her compatriot and friend) won the AA at the Lugano Trophy meet this past weekend. It is looking to be a good year for Rom. bravo!

I was really impressed with Ana at junior europeans. I believe she has huge potential Ana and Amelia Racea are good across the four apparatus and when they move to Deva should continue to get better and better.

Hi Ama1234510. Do you have any report of Anna ? I heard that she was injured and hasn't been competing lately. She is really good and I like her along with Amelia Racea (you do too I see), Diana Bulimar, Larissa Lordache, Madalina Neagu, Claudia Voicu. In fact, I like most of the Juniors (smile). I haven't seen her compete lately so wanted to know if you know what her story is. Diana and Larissa also seem to be good on all 4 apparatus. Imagine all 4 of them for 2012 - what a team!

Ana just had the knee surgery and she's recovering well. I hope to see her soon in competitions.

terrible

[ClaudiuRo340]

she is just junior! u never no how she might do whn she will b older!

[serenenz]

I have to disagree with you on the "terrible" statement. I think she is dynamic and looks to be a major threat when she hits senior level. Bear in mind she is young so she has plenty more years to improve and better her routine.

[AMA1235410]

guys press to watch in high quality its much better to view. Ana has such beautiful leaps, does anyone have a progress report on her since Europeans x

[ClaudiuRo340]

i heard she trains in deva and that she injured her back like Stelina did! i thnk she is better naw but im not too sure!!
