i like how she throws her head back into her double pike

[harrypottersgymnast]

was this her old song ? ?? cause its sounds so familiar!!!! great job b!!

[camjay8]

Her form is inpecable on her full twisting double pike.

[blackspiderinluv1010]

@harrypottersgymnast Yes it is. And the same routine, too! In her one from the 2008 Olympic Trials, her entire body went out of bounds and she handed on her hands.

it sounds like the floor is extra springy, so maybe thats why she was having difficulty landing? Or who knows, maybe she was just having a bad day. By the way, love the leo :)

they got rid of it they completely changed the scoring system. Now its like back in '96 how it was like 9.733 now its stuff like 16.033 and 14.637 im glad they changed it back to that way

the no lunges may look cleaner, but its a bit unfair if youve gone through a lifetime of training and then have to change something like that. of course youre going to get that with any rule change, a generation of gymnasts who have been taught differently, but it would still suck.

my ballet syllabus is in the process of being updated, and thats hectic enough without being a professional national representative like these guys.

@kristinaalannah that's not the point, you don't have to land with straight legs, you just don't need to take the lunge backwards. Some girls can do it fine and it looks much cleaner. None of the other apparatus' are allowed to take a step on the landings, why should floor be any different?

@123spikeit 14.3 its in the description.

[passion4fashion77]

the new no lunge rule is RIDICULOUS

[kristinaalannah]
