2025 World Championships: Women’s Qualifications Day 1 October 20/ Day 2 October 21

I have no answers. My daughter doesn't do any sports. Her ADHD is significant enough that we're just focusing on academics right now because fifth grade is a big milestone. But she has several friends who are very promising gymnasts, and their families are trying to figure out if they want to go for broke on elite or focus on L10 and the more realistic possiblity of a college scholarship.

It's insane that they are having to make that choice at that young age.

Making committing to elite at that age is a one way ticket to burnout by 16.

I'm guessing Leanne Wong must not have received credit for her switch ring on BB, right? 5.4 D-Score.

From the livestream angle, I would have credited the Switch Ring Leap(foot to crown of head and sufficient arch).

I think the D panel didn't credit the Switch Leap + Switch Leap 1/2 connection due to the slight pause before taking off for the Switch Leap 1/2. This cost her 0.1 in CV for the Switch Leap + Switch Leap 1/2 connection and 0.1 in SB for no longer having a B + B + C / three element series.

The D panel should have credited the first front tuck as complete and eligible for DV and counting toward CR # 4 / Salto Backward and Forward because Visser took off for the element in bounds and landed it feet first prior to the fall.

So Visser actually lost 0.3 on floor by downgrading her 2.5 to a Double Full punch front. She needn’t have. I guess in the moment she wasn’t sure.

I didn’t give the switch to switch half. but I did give the switch half to straddle and I credited the switch ring.

I always felt like the Elites years ago had more international meet opportunities. Like the 00-04 quad, it seemed like they competed all over but maybe some of that was WOGA taking their crop of girls to meets without them being ‘official’ USAG assignments. It definitely doesn’t feel as ‘worth it’ now.

I always thought Leanne was supposedly so code savvy but maybe I’m mixing her up with someone else.


Super random but the talk of off post Olympic Worlds had me randomly thinking of a girl who vaulted in some big meets randomly. Sort of Jade-esq before Jade. Kayla someone? I can picture her. Brown curly hair.

ETA: Ahhh. I just googled. Kayla Williams. Pretty randomly won Vault at 2009 World Champs.
