Event 2025 US Nationals Senior Women Day 1 (Friday, August 8, 2025)

While I’m sure she’ll end up at Florida with all the other elites, I would love to see Pease go to Oklahoma and not defer until 2028 just to see what an OU coached elite would look like. If anyone knows how to work the code it’s KJ Kindler.

Maybe Stassi will try to do college and elite at the same time? That would be interesting.

Madray mentioned continuing elite in her OU commitment post so hopefully that eventuates.

I'm desperate to see what a KJ elite would look like.

Does Madray have eligibility to represent another country. Because if not, it seems a bizarre choice to continue elite.

How's that, when she can't even beat Hezly at Nationals.

I think it was sarcasm lol

0.7 between gymnasts 4-9. I think we need to see consistency over multiple events to separate them out. They were essenstially equal on day 1.

AA medallist?

Leanne’s best event is the AA. That’s her problem.

I hate the gymternet.

In the arena I thought Hezly's 6.4 on beam was bogus. This means they credited (upon inquiry) the side aerial to jumps, switch 1/2 to Korbut, and front aerial to ring. I would've only given the last connection, which would have her at the initial 6.1.

She was bumped 0.3 and leads by 0.2

Isn’t that good in an individual worlds?

It's far less deducted than other vaults, since there's no downgrade to the D-score. Sloppy Chengs have been getting overscored for far too long, even aside from the piking issue, and it's a huge problem in the code that other vaults get a ridiculous .6 downgrade for being slightly too piked, while the Cheng always keeps its full value.

That's not what you said originally though — this is a much more reasonable statement. Though it still doesn't acknowledge how much harder even a pikey Cheng is than a Pod.

Oof. Vaulting is not great.

Just getting caught up because I was at the ballgame last night(Go Tigers) so here are my thoughts no one asked for.
Pease and Hezly basically switched roles from Classics.
Did Jayla Hang already peak this year, and is she capable of peaking again for Worlds?
Roberson is sweet, but yuck on all of it.
Love Gabrielle Hardie on floor.
I thought many girls did a nice job of improving artistry on floor, but a lot of the tumbling has gotten boring.
Bhs bhs double picks beam dismounts are terrifying.
I still don't see what Laurie brings to the table
