The chances of Finland qualifying a team to Olympics are slim? Excited to watch Finnegan as well.

 

[irichluck21]

The chances of Finland qualifying a team to Olympics are slim?

Yes, pretty much impossible.
The team average for the year is 144.205, they scored 148.230 at Euros, and their maximum score (using highest routine score from each) is 152.914.
Plus they are without Maiia Kuusikko who typically does AA, so it’ll be hard to replace those scores on all 4.
They should be hopeful to finish ahead of Taiwan. If they hit 16 for 16 they might be able to pass South Africa and Sweden.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

They’re warming up.

 

[Caligym]

Beautiful execution from Finnegan!!

 

[blake]

Aleah hit her floor routine out of the park.

No UB EF for Szekely but she might get the +1 spot.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Yeah they’re probably going to end up going quite far down the list for that one.

 

[J175]

This Finland team probably wouldn’t have qualified to Worlds if they’d competed at Euros tbh. Kuusikko is a huge loss both for the team score and their chances of qualifying anyone to Paris. After one rotation Ada Hautala is nearly a point ahead of Kaia Tanskanen but I think they’ll both be struggling to get the score required.

 

[Caligym]

What is the likely AA score Finnegan will need to qualify? 51?

 

[blake]

Quite the contrast to MAG.

 

[J175]

39.632 is not a great vault score for Germany. No DTY for Voss.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

The best unqualified WAG EF finalists all seem to be legit AAers as well.

 

[Puffin]

No - they were solid but not much difficulty.

 

[cftmoonlight79]

So is there still a path to the Olympics for teams/individuals?

 

[Gymfan93]

Teams no. Individuals, not sure. Do they still have spots awarded at continentals?

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

There are still continental AA spots and world cup EF spots to be awarded after worlds.

 

[Gymfan93]

If I never hear this rotation song again, it will be too soon

 

[blake]

Germany in the low 39s on bars. Not looking good at the halfway point.

 

[J175]

Apparently Schafer’s vault was downgraded. That plus the DTY is easily a point off their peak potential.

They need to average 13.05 on beam and floor. I struggle to see it tbh. Their floor isn’t a strength so beam needs to be so good.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Germany are in 9th on vault and 10th on bars…
