Alicia Sacramone FX Podium Training Worlds 2011 Tokyo

[flickflack98]

what´s the name of her music on the floor?? maybe someone could send me a link?

[MrLalol123]

She needs to take the arabian out. either she lands perfect or falls

[witscats]

She needs more difficult tumbling. She has so much power. I think if she did more difficult stuff that would save her from stepping out and taking hops all the time. When she lands she still wants to go!

[nicksline]

Wow, she is so powerful. She totally should throw a full in and the end (well if she recovers in time for the Olympics). I wonder why she's never tried throwing a double double, she's definitely got the power for it.

[bernardmvella]

@nicksline Double doubles need a lot of power yes, but they need super refined basic technique. She's also probably a bit too big now to be able to get all the flipping and twisting done, seeing as she'd have comparatively shorter axis in the air than gymnasts who do double-doubles (Vanessa, Shawn, Cheng etc).

[garyj79]

She's powerful and all that BUT her dance is not good, as in she's too harsh in her artistry (like Produnova was). This is a small improvement though on her non artistic routine from 2005-08, where some arm flailing and gyrations in the corners were perceived by some people as 'artistry'.....artistry is what the gymnasts from the 60's - 90's had !

[TheBourgas1]

@garyj79 Yeah, I've also thought she's traying to copy Produnova, but she can't hold a candle to her difficulty and originality. Alicia can never pass as an artistic gymnast, her foot work is a mess, the corners of the routine look the same - relaxed bouncing body, she doesn't perform to the music and her leaps and turn look labored with poor technique.

[DimWit217]

This routine is AMAZING!! the music and choreography are great and fit Alicia well.

[itstheapocalypse]

I love Alicia to death. I hope she gets better quickly and goes to London.

Now if only she could switch that front tuck into a one and a half twist. She'd gain like two extra tenths in her start value.

[rbnbegg10]

it sucks that i didnt get to see her perform this amazing routine in the team and event final she would have definitely rocked it

[Jaycrz55]

I saw her naked

[cardinalfan103]

looooove her music

[GymJennyPanda]

I hope I get to hear this music playing in London.

[emilyosmentTSxx]

lovin the music keep s the suspense rollin

[PrincessOfZambia]

Her tumbling form is actually really nice...

[titangymnast27]

its so terrible that she got hurt because she was looking better than ever!

[chiaraad]

@titangymnast27 what happened? is this the reason why she isn't at the national team camp in texas now?

[titangymnast27]

@chiaraad she tore her achilles right before worlds and had to have surgery

[charxchar]

her second tumbling pass. no words to describe its amazingness. asac will always be asac.

[xPlumpxPersonx]

@charxchar Shame it's the one she got injured on =(

[gymnastjaiderz]

AMAZING tumbling! Great landings, and HUUUGE power!! Wish she wasn't injured :/

[aNoifmYg391]

are they actually judged for podium training??

[13shifter]

@aNoifmYg391 no the judges are the just so they know what they should expect in the routine. Just like in ice skating.

[aNoifmYg391]

@13shifter Oh okay. Thanks!

[MistRDonuT94]

wow that triple was ridiculously high!!

[JohnYiMusic]

this new choreo is ballin.

[emilydowner]

@allaround champ08 not a tan line. It's her her under garment

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner it's in fast a tan line they don't wear underwear, only bra's.

[emilydowner]

@OhHeyyItsJay mhmm, because you're an elite gymnast right? look on the gkelite website. you'll see the undergarments we wear.

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner I did gymnastics until I graduated. I never wore undergarments. So calm down. In an interview they were asked abouth their tan lines and they were kinda embarrased by them.

[emilydowner]

@OhHeyyItsJay i'm an elite. enough said

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner Oh you are? Good job. But what does that have to do with leo's? It doesn't matter what level your on, we all wear the same ones. Enough said.

[emilydowner]

@OhHeyyItsJay i'm not saying it to brag. I'm saying that because I'm pretty sure I know what we wear. yes some of us have tan lines but we also wear undergarments.

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner Some do and some don't. If you're an elite gymnast how do you have time to get on Youtube and tell people when they are right and wrong?

[emilydowner]

@OhHeyyItsJay its not like I'm at the gym every second of my life. I go to school. I have somewhat of a life.

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner Most elites don't have a life is all.

[emilydowner]

@OhHeyyItsJay your point being?

[OhHeyyItsJay]

@emilydowner Exactly what I said.

[allaroundchamp08]

love her.

but such an unfortunate tan line....

[ShawnVikaKomova2012]

Sigh... What a pity.

[boytoyville]

So sad she couldn't perform this. What an unfortunate injury.

[FINNYFINNY123]

@boytoyville what happened to her ?

[cleicsioluek]

@FINNYFINNY123 Torn Achilles tendon..... :(

[cleicsioluek]

Lord this floor is springy! I will miss Alicia sooooo much throughout thise championships! Get well soon Alicia!! :(

[ivegotmyrockmusic]

I can't imagine these Worlds without Alicia. She's the one I wanted to see the most at these Championships.

[marushk161]

Such a pity we won't see her in a competition. I hope she'll be alright for next year...

[autoneto]

Sacramone sooooooo high chest in every landing. well done
