Event 2025 European Championships - Quals & Team Finals (May 26-27)

[RedBirdie]

Romania in 4th, misses a medal by only 0.5 tenths.

Voinea contributed exactly 0 scores to this finish and has the audacity to behave the way she's behaving at the end.

I try and give her some grace, given the absolute bullshit the adults around her are stuffing into her head. But at the same time, I just want to smack Sabrina and tell her to grow the fuck up.

 

[Ginger]

Helen Kevric third with two falls. As much as I love Esposito I wouldn’t mind if Barbosu or Kevric grabs the European title. And proud of Vanesa Masova making AA and UB finals (plus R2 on beam).

 

[J175]

Kevric and Schonmaier are tied for mixed team qualification. Not sure what the rules say but if they have a choice I'd give Kevric a rest.

Very poor sportsmanship. This is a team completion as well as individual qualifiers.

Voinea didn't baulk at vault - I had that wrong earlier. She just came out and saluted - Camelia and the springboard were nowhere to be seen.
I suppose if there were safety grounds, fair enough. But it's Sabrina's mother Id have liked to see act like an adult and congratulate Ana. If you look at her behaviour when Sabrina fails - as at the world cup recently - it's not surprising Sabrina gets in a state.

 

[phoenix7]

Every time I see Ana manage that floor routine without an OOB, I think, could you not have done that in July and saved us all that misery?

 

[RedBirdie]

Big props to the French for not letting their Olympic disaster utterly derail them. Nice bounce back to claim bronze here.

Yes. I wanted Romania to beat France to the podium, but I couldn't bring myself to hope for a French meltdown all the same - they had such an awful time in Paris.

7th is Sweden's best finish as a team.
Also 12th is Israel's best finish as a team.

I really dislike the queen behavior of voinea, I already disliked her mother, but I added her to my short list of people I really do not like

 

[RAFIKI]

Really chuffed for Sweden’s team placing and for Williams doing so well on BB and FX. I enjoyed Guertz on UB and FX.

Kudos to Portugal for pulling themselves together on BB after a terrible time on UB. As others have said, props to France for bouncing back. Hungary were also nice to watch, especially on UB.

Didn’t watch much VT because of the camera angle. I noticed a lot of lovely high double tucks on FX. I still can’t believe it’s such a widespread elite pass in 2025, but nice to see height at least. The last subdivision felt quite splatty, certainly curse of the double from UB dismount.

 

[irichluck21]

I think silver is Germany's highest team medal finish as well.

 

[KorbutFan]

In case it hasn’t been posted, the YouTube channel ‘Herewasrachel Gymnastics’ has some videos up. Leat’s jumps on beam are phenomenal.

 

[irichluck21]

Kudos to Romania for their throwback leo circa 1995-1997...very Atlanta team finals

 

[Passion]

Love the white Romanian leo, they wore a red version and a black version of the same leo in Paris. I remember thinking back then that I wish they had made a version in white and here it is.

IIRC it's supposed to be modeled after Nadia's '76 leo.

[ArnoldRimmer]

Assuming Germany make the mixed TF, it'll be interesting to see which WAG they use as Kevric and Schomaier are tied. Nobody seems to know if there's a tiebreaker, what it is or if the federation can choose.

What did Camelia do at the World Cup? Look irritated at Sabrina or ignore her?

 

[MaryClare]

Can someone update me with the latest Sabrina/Camelia drama. I can’t work out what actually happened
