2024 Winter Cup

I'm wondering about Rose because she goes to Jordan Chiles' former gym, yes? She might need to do similar to Chiles and move gyms.

 

[RedBirdie]

She trains with Nola Matthews right?

Yes, Turner and Matthews are at Airborne.

I have 12.3 for Crane but I feel like I'm Tokyo judging and not Liverpool judging...

Plus I'm doing E and D at the same time which is a nightmare.

ETA: USAG - 12.6

No, Simone Rose and Jayla Hang are at Pacific Reign. Totally different gym in a different part of the state.

Crain got a 14.2 on vault?? What the fuck is she vaulting?!

 

[RedBirdie]

Doug, DTY. and juniors get a .2 bonus for doing 5.0+ D score vaults.

 

[Doug1233]

I have a 12.5 for Lespearce that was lovely.
ETA: USAG - 12.4

Makes sense! I couldn't imagine someone that tiny doing a big vault!

Just on vault? Or are they doing bonus bullshit on the other events too?

I'm sad now because I googled Lavi Crain to figure out when she turns senior, read in her USAG bio that she started gymnastics in 2012 and thought oh wow! she's only been doing gym for a few years!

No, it's been twelve years. Twelve years since 2012.

It was a good DTY, too. She wasn't chucking and praying.

I honestly can't remember. I just skimmed whatever document it's in, but don't recall. Although I think maybe it's only vault.

 

[Doug1233]

I literally cannot believe we landed a man on the moon 50 years ago and yet USAG cannot host a simple website with live scores...

Pease is beautiful, but I'm figuring Valeri will break her. Turner and Damelio have potential.

Even last year's juniors didn't wow me. Hang and Rose have stunning form, but not sure they have the skill level to be potential world AA medalists. With Rivera, it's a toss up who will crush her first, her dad or Valeri. Esponda is all power and no finesse (sorry, rylat).

It will be interesting to see how Rivera does tomorrow now that she's a senior.

 

[Doug1233]

McClendon looks like the absolute spitting image of Shilese. They even move the same. I had 12.3 for her floor.

ETA: USAG - 12.5

Junior AA

 

[RedBirdie]

Juniors need a 50.0 for nationals. Sad state of affairs when only 6 manage it.

Doug, scores are working again.

 

[Passion]

Oh they're giving the winners baseball bats again. This meet was in Kentucky last year too, I didn't realize it was back to back Kentucky until now.
