2024 US Nationals WAG Day 2 Session 2

[makam]

damnit, the macarena again? they did this already during the junior session and 2 days ago. There really should be a limit. They better not play the chacha slide song again or I am really going to hate on this DJ.

 

[rlayt]

Eh. I'm not sold. It just reminds me of the stockings my mother made me wear under my church dresses as a kid.

Did you twinkle like Simone?

 

[Laura722]

15.1 for Simone.

 

[MaryClare]

Hope no one on the intl feed suffers from vertigo

 

[tempest]

Moors, Chuso, DLO and a DOUBLE TUCK dismount? so anticlimatic

 

[Hatsumomo]

Did you twinkle like Simone?

Nah I always just tore the hell out of them

You can bet we're going to whip our hair back and forth one more time.

Rivera is in 4th right now. Who had that on their bucket list?

 

[MaryClare]

Rivera is in 4th right now. Who had that on their bucket list?

Me. I’ll find the post from last year

Paris Selection is going to be really really really difficult

 

[rlayt]

The commercials are just as repetitive as the arena music.

I think Rivera is putting it together just a little too late for serious consideration for Paris. If she had been competing like she is here for the past year, she'd definitely be in contention.

 

[tempest]

Did Shilese's petition get approved?

 

[QuietColours]

I think we've all recognized that Rivera has all the pieces to be one of the best. She just never gave any sign she was going to put them together.

 

[Rich]

This is who I've listed as likely Trials invites (petitions pending):

Trinity Thomas* (injured Night 1 Nationals)

does the fact that trinity did UB today make it possible for her to petition?

 

[Passion]

Did Shilese's petition get approved?

They won't announce until after the meet probably, but it absolutely will be.

 

[Sasha]

Did Shilese's petition get approved?

I think they decide that after the meet.

 

[Denn]

Why is Biles using a sting mat for the DLO half? Doesn't that just make it harder to leap out of it?

No, not really.

I don't think Trinity is going to get an invite. And it is pretty generous to include Hang in there. She's been on the strugglebus.
