2024 US Nationals pre-competition discussion

You think this is the end? It will be four more years of nonsense about how Gabby is a serious contender for the Olymic Team.

She can do whatever she wants. The only thing more grating than the speculation is the overt negativity surrounding her.

 

[tsarinajen]

Not sure how I feel about that.

Same. I have many feelings and thoughts. I hope she’s ok and happy with whatever she decides.

 

[RedBirdie]

Podium training will kick off shortly. If anyone has FlipNow and wants to provide updates, it would be greatly appreciated.

I watched some of the juniors while packing for vacation, but I had don’t know them well enough to be of much help. I saw a LOT of falls and cring worthy landings. I did see a lovely bar routine from Tyler Turner whose swing looks so much like Trinity that if I hadn’t seen her glasses I would have seriously thought it was Thomas.

 

[Laura722]

I'm going to watch the senior session that starts at 6.

Apparently Skye is potentially going to throw the Cheng in at least podium training, possibly competition.

I submitted that question earlier for the IG live!

She needs to do it.
Right now its Wong, DiCello, Chiles, and Blakely for that 5th spot and the three alternates, IMO.
A Cheng and that beam would make her really stand out over the other 3.

 

[RedBirdie]

Skye bringing a usable Cheng would really put the pressure on Jade.

 

[Laura722]

Open stretch is almost over, so they'll start in a few minutes.

 

[Laura722]

Full twisting double layout from jade.

Hezly and Madray just did full run-throughs of their UB routines. Looked good.

 

[Laura722]

Chuso from Trinity on floor.

 

[Laura722]

Suni fell on her back layout mount but otherwise, the routine was almost perfect.

 

[Laura722]

Moors from Jade!

Kayla has fallen twice on UB.

Nice DTY from Tiana.

Cheng from Simone.

 

[Laura722]

Nice UB from Kayla after a few struggles.

Thank you for sharing these tidbits.

 

[Laura722]

Skye has hit her UB routine a couple of times.

Another beam run-through for Suni. Makes the mount, but fell on bhs loso loso. She's so stunning on beam.

Simone did another beautiful Cheng.

Cheng from Roberson, not as nice lol.

Saw Chiles do a Lopez.

Shilese is throwing the aerial cartwheel-loso.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

Some of Roberson’s Chengs looked more secure, some were still downright dangerous.

 

[Laura722]

Kieryn Finnell kept sitting down her yurchenko 1 1/2.

Suni got back on beam and redid her layout series.

Hang fell a few times on beam.

 

[Laura722]

Kaliya clean run-through on beam, several wobbles but not falls.

Seen DLO's from Suni and Shilese on floor.

Yurchenko double from Trinity??

Skye hit her standing full and fhs-front tuck perfectly.
