    Random gymnastics questions

    I knew it wasn’t technically, but it sure did look as if it was

    2026 American Cup (Team competition, elimination each round)

    I agree, though I enjoyed watching the men and women compete together and also the tension.

    2026 American Cup (Team competition, elimination each round)

    Alba Petisco’s made me understand what people say good carriage (by displaying the exact opposite)

    Men Khoi Young

    I like it too, but because it reminds me of the seventies… Ahhh, youth ….

    2026 Winter Cup (Feb 21-22)

    Isn’t it more like they are opening the door for different body types? I think it’s a great idea. There could be gorgeous gymnasts that don’t have enough power to take the power path.

    Event (FIG) 2026 Cottbus World Cup (Feb 19-22)

    I need to pay attention to this. She definitely seems talented enough to be World or Olympic champion

    Past Gymnastics Message Board Memories

    I was on ggmb and I worried that I may be blacklisted or attacked, but it never happened. I was so happy to be invited to the earlier version of this mb. My first mb was outOfBoundsness. But before that there was a listserve that came in emails.

    Will he never go away (nassar trigger warning)

    That was It really is a fake, I believe. It’s post-marked after Epstein was in prison and the handwriting was different from Epstein’s. Though, I wanted it to be real

    Off Balance: A Memoir

    I did not understand how that could be at the time. I was just a fan and I understood the selection process ahead of time, how could the Parkettes not understand? It did not make sense, but also I was relieved because kim always peaked for selection and never competed well internationally

    Men American Men's Gymnastics

    i was thinking English, Irish and German, though there are a lot of people with Scandinavian descent in the US, I wouldn’t know since everyone would call them white. I just hate white and black as designations. Though it’s unavoidable

    Men American Men's Gymnastics

    I remember feeling at the time that the selection was skewed against Donnell. I could be wrong and he was inconsistent, but so was everyone else. It seemed like a old boys frat club liked their team to be of N European descent. Danell Leyva didn’t fit in either. It seems way better now
