[PrettyPro1997]

[Gymast99]

what the heck i didnt likethat fat girl in the blue leotard. she wasnt cheering and she was telling the little girl what to do..but i loved how the little girl wasnt listening and she was watchign isla....great job on those giants! just try to keep straighter arms and not to arch as mnuch but im guessing that now they are better..giants are a huge inprovement! great job!

[cuteypink121]

ouch i though she was gonna get a face full of bar when she did her giantsss

[MeowcatBissy]

Maybe someday she could be like Shawn Johnson or Nastia Liukin :)

[cheerleaderlover1011]

[cream981]

[omgily221]

[martinag6]

its easy for her bcuz she is little and has no fear

[gymnasthavemorefun11]

those are good. but she needs to work on her cast to handstand a little more. and she is kinda archy.

[soccergymnast63]

omg i cant get anything rite 3 attempt at a 4TH

[soccergymnast63]

opps sorry 3 attempt @ a third even better

[soccergymnast63]

nice dont arch over da top as much so u dont get points off in a routine but i cant really talk mine look pretty archy and i only do 1 u did 2 and i try @ a third

[Twinige]

Wow thats good, that handstand just needs alittle work :P But those are REALLY GOOD

[gymnasticsislove123]

good Job!!! your kicking a little early at the bottom though. wait longerr... and then kick. Great start though!!!

[gymshiv]

WOW

awesome form, legs stayed together and everything, nice :D

[GymMushu]

aww!! u look so cut&shmall islaa!! tee.heez

[geddy1997]

oh no i meant airborne in colorado... lol thx anyway!

[geddy1997]

is this at airborne?

[wandrewsjr]

nope - Gymfinity Gymnastics in Livermore, CA (about an hour away from where Airborne is located)

[usaelitegymnast]

those are really nice for first giants. and your only 8, thats great! What level are you now? are you training elite? Are you doing TOPs?  Hope to see you around.

[wandrewsjr]

Isla is 9 now, competing level 7. She made the TOPS Diamond team as an 8 year old, made national testing as a 9 year old, but not the team. Will likely try again this year. Her coach's plan is to train them for elite.

[sippydip]

oh my god no eight year old should be able to do that. simply amazing so strong seeya in the olympics

[yokamotoh]

omg she is so small and cute! thats awesome!

[GymnasticsLuver247]

omg you are really good its just when you cast keep your legs strait and together lolz i can do giants to arent they really really fun!!! :) lol

[mmkx0]

danggg shes sooo tiny! haha shes really good :) good job!

[xFiGHTF0RL0VE]

not bad for the first ones!! she needs to kick her feet over before the rest of her body, though, so then it won't be so arched. i'm sure she'll get that soon enough if she hasn't already (:

[monkey4life222]

those older girls r just standing there in amazment! lol great job!

[Silkroad773]

finally there is one who understands, whats meaning to spam a little girl. rokki41 is the only one whos right !!!

[Gymnasticsgal97]

great job! I am 11 and in level 5!!! I wish I could do that sort of stuff

[rokki41]

To the ones that are spamming this little girl,

I think this is terrible!!!

It seems to me, that only the insecure gymnasts....and "know it alls" are cutting her down to make yourselves feel better,

because you have low self-esteem, and are jealous!

A "thumb up" to the ones who gave nice comments.

[tsukqueen]

I wouldn't encourage too many giants in strap, the can mess up your technique for later. She is falling in one long arch. When she takes that habit to a real bar, she will arch on the way up and not get around properly.

[wandrewsjr]

It is a real bar, over a pit. Her technique has improved greatly since then.

[ChixRule122]

she is on a real bar! and she is great at giants!! now she has improved sooooo much they're better than mine! lol

[Borygymdog]

she's sooo good i can do that but i'm 10. good job!!

[fritschr]

Thats short !!!!!!!!!!!!

[chey1137]

she's bad at that. she need to work on those more

[smallvillefreek26]

you're nice

[greenkiwi689]

If you looked at the title, this was her first time trying them. Your probably a fat pig who can't even get out of bed. This girl is very good

[gymchick97]

o i didnt mean her i meant another girl that said she got her giants when she was 6. No i think this girl is fantastic!! mine are not as nearly as good as hers especialy since im only in level 5 and i still need a spot for them

sorry for the inconvience

[greenkiwi689]

Oh, Okay, nvm then. AHa, sorry for the misunderstanding on my part as well.

[jennifer78676]

i started at 2

[kenz13west]

i think i( know her WWHATS HER NAME

[balletxxlove]

Thats so good! Usually they don't start until like 9 or 10!

[xplosive08]

they do...our girls started when they where 6...now they are 7 and they do it by their own

[podgexox]

wow.

i only started giants when i was 9 !

and im almost 13 now & hers are better than myneee

DANGGG!

tell isla i said shes my Idol

[gymnastlvl5]

that was pretty good.

[gymfinityjerod]

Be watching out for her clearhip handstand, giant. She is really improving quickly!

[gymfinity123]

I know hagread!!! But isla needs 2 sgeeze her tummy!!!

[juicylove216]

Yay Isla! How's Moira doing? I remember working out with them at Gymfinity. And Jessica coaching too :-)

[tumblechik852741]

Jessica Isn't coaching at our gym anymore. Friday was her last day. =[

[jperfect10n]

That's too bad. :-(

[gymfinity123]

Its so sad huh squirrel?

[wicklandtube]

Great job!!!

[DollFaceHottie]

for a second i thoguht she was on strap bar

[gymfinitycoach]

She is a very talented little girl who has a future in this sport!

[wandrewsjr]

her coach plans to have her do one level 6 meet this spring and then train for level 7 and eventually elite if it happens. she made the TOPS diamond team this past year

[xplosive08]

are they planing big future for her...some elite level...

i thing she is much better than level 5 or 6

[xplosive08]

that's fine...what level is she

[wandrewsjr]
