2024 US Classic: Hartford

I'm really surprised to see Lee doubling down on the jaeger full.

Noted that Chiles went back to a 3-pass routine. Smart for her. Also I like Douglas's double layout!

Fabricova from Simone...she fell though.

Suni appeared to struggle a lot on beam. Konnor struggled on UB some as well.

Amazing that Carey is still pushing herself as an AAer when you've got 3 Olympic AA champions in the mix as well as Shilese Jones.

Jade's work ethic is just insane. She seems so sweet and mellow, but her inner competitive drive is off the charts.

If you have facebook, Gabby's full bar set.

At American classic, a forum member reported that they never saw her do a full bar routine so this is a good sign.

An alternative way of looking at it is that her top AA result was 8th at the Olympics…

Is that amount of spotting from Valeri normal for a podium training routine?

I don't know what he usually does, but he did it with Hezly and Madray too.

Scott Bergman says Suni is tumbling on floor.

Valeri is a total overspotter for all his gymnasts.

Jordan Chiles did a front tuck mount on beam. I couldn't remember if that was new, but it is.

Ooh, so retro!

Not only are the rings still in Gabby's beam, but her floor dance elements are still a disaster waiting to happen.

Kayla DiCello somewhat sloppy DTY

And the first half of Shilese on bars, including the layout Jaeger

Her Ferrari attempt will get downgraded to a tour jete half; her Gogean will get downgraded to a tour jete half; and so whichever she does second is gonna get voided completely.

Can someone please pass the memo along that she should be attempting just a Switch Ring 1/2? That would avoid the overlap and probably be easier for her to do. I'm pretty sure this is also a D in the code. Flavia does it.
