Shawn Johnson (Chow's) - 2011 US Nationals - Beam (Day 2)

[kgurlforever]

she deserved way more than a 14.7! The judges are under scoreing a lot of gymnasts

[uzizoe04]

love Shawn , but irks me that a world and olympic champion cannot do a 90 degree split. Her coaches need to work on her flexibility

[JessicaRaeT]

@uzizoe04 I think shawn and her coach chow know what their doing...considering the fact she got a gold medal on the beam

[msjalaylay]

@uzizoe04 wth is a 90 split? you mean 180?

[changetheraine]

I LOVE the angle of the camera!!! I often get annoyed when they film below the beam or from the short end of it or even from above... Why do they do that? This is perfect. You can see how precise she has to be cos you have a clear view of the beam surface and also there are no stupid zooming in on feet or half body shots etc. Thank you to whoever put the camera at such a great angle!!! :)

I'm guessing the 1.2 downgrade on the difficulty is because only 8 skills are counted now as opposed to 10?

[cleicsioluek]

@DarkHybridxx Yes, and she didn't do her usual back with a full, had some changes here and there, and btw, her SV in '08 was 7.0

Who dislikes this?! 

[ArtisticGym]

@kpenda That's what I'm sayin!

[GymnasticsSuperFan]

I can't believe she's still in gymnastics.

[cleicsioluek]

@GymnasticsSuperFan Is that in a good way or a bad way?

[GymnasticsSuperFan]

@cleicsioluek Good, Shawn is one of my favorite gymnasts.

[cheddarpretzels]

If she adds more difficulty and continues performing like that, she is easily going to get scores 15+!

Love Shawn!<3
