I'm not a francophone but I am fluent in French.

Yeah, I'm not keen to have a way-sub-180 split creditable as a different shape, honestly. If she wanted to propose an L-hop full (or something) with proper L form, sure.

What kind of commie lunacy is that? (I agree, and as much as I enjoy NCAA, I'm glad our universities aren't funnelling that kind of resources into sports.)

Not a bad idea, but I'm still surprised by the timing. Maybe she realised belatedly that she needed the break. It would be an odd choice to get yourself in top form for Jesolo and then skip Worlds.

My god that's the dreeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaammmm.

I'm super bummed about Esposito as I think she could have done very well for herself this year. But I'm happy to see them taking the decision to rest people. And I'm curious to see how Asia is doing!

Her first pass is a gem: skills she can do, put into a difficult combination. Maybe she could apply that approach on beam...

Okay @Passion, I didn't NEED that in my life. :LOL:

Clean routine from Melnikova. I don't imagine it will be close to Voinea but I really appreciate how detail-oriented she is in her dance. You can see the work she puts into it (not in a bad way though). 13.4 for second. Floor: 1. Voinea 2. Melnikova 3. Tanskanen

Voinea through with no major issues, should take it easily I'd think. Edit: 13.8, into first.

Evans with a fumble on her third pass, tucked the layout and nearly sat it down. But she kept her butt off the floor. 12.8, no medal.

I missed van Eijken but she's sitting in 3rd. Evans is next.

Vaelen 13.33, very balanced final so far, lol. Shoshani with an engaging performance but slips and falls on her last pass.

Martin with a dicey landing on her Chuso, but she seems okay. Trouble on the wolf. I do like that she integrates dance into her leap passage, it's much less awkward than the usual. 13.166.

Clean work from Tanskanen, 13.366
