2022 Romanian Jr championships

This was such a lovely routine! I love her form and especially her rhythm. Only real pause is before the dismount.

I agree, all routines have such bad basics. As a whole, the country is heavily lacking in terms of UB technique. This has to start at the beginning. They install mistakes that are nigh impossible to fix when they’re older (and get better coaches, probably). Only a few exceptions, who have a natural swing and raw UB talent are somewhat able to clean up and make changes in technique. But those are few and far between. Even Larissa Iordache was not able to do that, yet she could compensate a little with her difficulty. And she was definately not the worst in terms of technique.

Voinea though, is exceptionally weak, technically speaking. I think they’ve rushed her way too much and way too soon. So a Fabrichnova is nice and cute, but if you’ve racked up 3-4 points in deductions beforehand already, it’s a lost case.

Ghigoarta is great on bars. She could go 8.0+ internationally

She (Ghigoarta) showed some upgrades on floor earlier this year (full in and upgraded twisting combo pass). I believe she had an ankle they rested here.

Hopefully she can stay healthy.
