Exactly. 😑

:rolleyes:

I don't think it should come into play in terms of fairness -- because you and MaryClare are right that there will always be physical attributes that benefit athletes in different sports. I think it is more if we want to see more of certain skills, how would we need to adjust the apparatus for...

True - I just think the way the sport has moved towards more difficulty, it is worth thinking about these ideas others have suggested because the floor skills of today are very different from when floor exercise was created. But if we only want the shorter gymnasts to do certain...

But perfect technique doesn't matter if you are too tall to fit the pass in the floor space. A physicist could calculate how much space a 4'8" gymnast vs. a 5'4" gymnast would need with perfect technique to generate a given skill from x number of steps and a ROBH. Taking 4 steps into a hurdle...

The floors I have put together were hard, interlocking rectangular panels with the springs, then several long strips of foam taped or velcroed together, then the carpet. Although I do agree a larger floor would be great (I'm fine with a bigger square) more panels and foam significantly...

And my video died. Guess I'll go do other things now!

I was wondering if maybe she went early (I watched the vault, but wasn't paying close attention to the signals). She might have outscored Charleigh, but not the other two.

Kylie Smith did 2 vaults, but they gave her a 0 on the second one. I wonder why.

Also, is there a link to a start list and/or scores? Edit: NM found it : https://results.asuncion2025.org/#/discipline/GAR/results/W.TEAM--------------.FNL-.--------

Anyone else trying to watch the video and having problems with buffering, or is it just me?

She had an instagram post a few months where she said it was never offered (even though people said she turned it down). ETA: This one (No one asked --> hashtag says she would have said yes)

I wonder why they didn't just go ahead and add Kylie and Addalye to the National team since they will do it before Pan Am's (especially since they did add Livi). ETA: And then they post this: I guess maybe they went home, but they didn't announce them in the arena unless I missed it on the...

Meetscoresonline finally came back - she got a 12.6 on floor
