Dang! She just did a beautiful bars set, but it’s so concerning given the context. I was hoping she would’ve had double front half out by now, though…

Ummm Joscelyn just threw a front full through to double layout….mad respect.

Jade brought her Cheng

I’m loving Jordan’s new floor music: I love the Amerie edit into Beyoncé! All of her tumbling was short, but I’m more worried about their insistence on keeping those poor leaps! The Gogean and switch 3/4 are not it.

Simone looking amazing per usual!

 

[RedBirdie]

Roberson botched her last pass. Front layout step out to double pike, and she just did a front layout, balked the rest of it. Interesting.

Sumanasekera’s music is my favorite. Roberson’s is like an assault on my ears.

Simone missed the leap out of the biles 1. Frickin’ roberson is winning me over with that wolf turn on floor. It was so fast.

 

[RedBirdie]

I’m really over all this violin music. Violins do not equal more artistic!

 

[blake]

I think Kaliya Lincoln could have a breakout moment this weekend. Her dbl pike on beam is so floaty.

 

[makam]

Jordan redoing the dpuble pike, much better. Maybe she is jusy keeping it low key here.

Man, this bb rotation just keeps going.

 

[crdubb17]

And it looked good!

 

[Laura722]

Suni has her grips on.

 

[crdubb17]

So bizarre to see Kayla throwing the tour jete half on beam like it’s 2004. And her switch half just might be worse than Joscelyn’s

 

[RedBirdie]

She just cannot get that back leg up AT ALL.

 

[RedBirdie]

Mega underrotated YDP from Simone. My ankles hurt watching that.

 

[makam]

Agreed. Ouch

 

[RedBirdie]

Scary fall from Jade on bars. Missed her Geinger and keep rotating, nearly landed on her head. She popped back up, but Brian looked rattled.

 

[Laura722]

Who just did that split leap into punch front on beam? That was neat!

 

[RedBirdie]

Muuuuuuch better vault from Simone this time.

 

[makam]

Much better ydp from Simone. Still only 1 vault though?
