That’s really fun for podium training. Love it!

Since I’ll be stuck at a conference tomorrow, I’m gonna need someone to step up and report on the juniors, since USAG is so kindly is streaming it free.

I promised to go to a movie tomorrow evening with a friend so i am going to miss seniors… insert forehead slap emoji.

 

[rlayt]

Can’t wait to see the abominations Gage comes up with.

 

[RedBirdie]

I got ya covered for seniors! Even if my husband is less than thrilled with my decision to watch gymnastics rather than spend time with his family. Such a terribly difficult decision, let me tell you…

 

[Kara]

I should be able to cover juniors.

 

[Indy]

The TCT ones are so fun!

 

[makam]

They could easily have been too texas dreams twee but managed to be different and fun (and showed up nicely on the quad screen in pt).

 

[MaryClare]

I love that the gymnasts chose their own words. What a cool idea

 

[Indy]

Totally! Texas Dreams would have used it for a gymnast’s competition leo and had floor music with corresponding superhero sound effects in it or something super cheesy. But for a training leo, it’s fun - let 'em be powerful comic book characters! And choosing their own words is all the better.

 

[JDB]

The Air Force Academy leos are nice.

Izzy Stasi in mint green which is pretty with her skin tone.

Reese Esponda loves her pink. This meet its bright pink and white.

Ally Damelio is wearing a zipper back leotard. I don’t think we’ve seen that since the East Germans in the 80s!

 

[MaryClare]

Ok, it’s a thing. Zippers are back, people. The TCT leotard also has a full zipper back

What a pleasant departure from Maggie Haney style designs

 

[Sasha]

Yeah, that was weird to see two zippers in a single competition; I swear I haven’t seen them since the 80s. And there was a remarkable but welcome lack of insane back cutouts and criss-cross straps!

Can someone please ELI5 why the airforce has its own gymnasts?

Can someone please ELI5 why the airforce has its own gymnasts?

They either qualified via one of the qualifying meets (Winter Cup/US Classic) or based on their individual finish at NCAAs.

 

[Sasha]

Okay, that makes sense, but why does the MILITARY have a GYMNASTICS team?

 

[MaryClare]

That is a very, very different question where I’m from!
