1-8-2012 Mattie Larson floor CIMG5644.AVI

UCLA vs. Utah Season Opener at the Wooden Center.

Filmed with a high speed Casio Exilim EX-FC 150 with portions in slo-mo at 30-120 fps (sorry if it annoys you, but this is as much for myself as anything). Also sorry if I toggle the slo-mo feature to occur at "wrong" moments. In some cases my timing's off, my finger on the toggle button not pressing correctly, mind falls asleep...plus, It's pretty well the first time watching any of their routines. So difficult to anticipate what's coming, sometimes.

If you recognize the gymnast and I haven't identified yet, let me know and I'll add it in.

[katantish]

isn't her second pass really easy for this level?

[charlesfritzen]

Looks like she over-rotated her front tuck step-out and saved it the best she could.

@charlesfritzen,

Yup. I asked one of the coaches about it afterward and it was her front tuck step-out that threw her off.

@katantish,

She bailed from her actual pass 'cause she came out awkwardly from her front tuck; and you can see her knees buckle forward into the backhandspring.

wow, she has dropped so much difficulty. i hope she's having fun now without the hate from marta
