It's been a long time since I've come across a gymnast that grabs my attention throws me face-first into innovative and elegantly executed gymnastics. Her double (and triple) turns on beam; the front handspring to a landing in the kneeling position (on one knee); the creative back spin; most importantly her dismount... cartwheel gainer 2.5?? That's so hard because it's so difficult to get a lot of lift (and time) for twisting past a double full, in my opinion. I wonder if she can do a triple.
@pamnesiac on the last part where I said that it's difficult to get lift and time for twisting past a double full... I was referring to the dismount being done "gainer" style.
Great skills and originality! I wish you nothing but luck in the coming years and competition. I love seeing gymnasts competing elite after a great college career and showing that it truly is WOMEN's artistic gymnastics.
Best routine she did all season. Wonder why no two and a half for visas. Hopefully we will see it in 2012!

Will be tuning in Saturday night to cheer you on in the Visa Classic. It takes guts to even try.

Nice variety of skills and actual transitions. Most beam nowadays is just trick, trick, trick, trick, puke. Well done.
