Roberson vault 1



D’Amato bars



Heron vault 1

 

[rlayt]

D’Amato injury vault.

 

[RedBirdie]

The flight series in particular was usually solid, so it’s bizarre that they truncated it rather than remove skills like the “Onodi”

According to Roberson’s dad, she changed the flight series because she felt off as soon as she took off for the aerial. Which tracks, because that BHS was super crunchy. I think its still supposed to be aerial-lso-lso. Guess we’ll see tomorrow.

But that Onodi has to go. Same with the straddle jump.

 

[RichardL]

Oh, that’s good news at least and makes sense. I should text Roberson’s dad next time before posting.

 

[RedBirdie]

Her dad is allllllll over Twitter. I saw that particular statement because someone retweeted it.

Villa bars

 

[RedBirdie]

This tweet has video of both of Roberson’s vaults. I will say the DTY is much improved. I thought she might die doing that vault at 2022 nationals.

Roberson vault 1

I hope they clean it up.

ETA I don’t like this vault because of the body shape. Never.

 

[irichluck21]

Her dad is allllllll over Twitter.

He is pretty vocal on twitter…

 

[RedBirdie]

Yet more video (sorry that these are all twitter links, but that’s where I’m seeing video for now) of Roberson’s vault, including a side view of vault 1.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

maybe the Italian coach does not know how to pace their gymnasts

I dont suppose there’ll be much disagreement on that one.

In other news from qualifications, Vasiliki Millousi finished 18th on beam and 19th on bars, scoring no World Cup points, so I think that is her definitely not going to Worlds this year.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Did Chusovitina need many points from this for worlds?

 

[J175]

No, she will finish top of the World Cup standings on vault (despite not winning any of the competitions, because none of the winners turned up to more than two of the four events).

 

[J175]

Going back to the earlier point about the standard of the WAG competition in Cairo, it is not a good thing for the sport that we are agreed that the one top level team who showed up would have been better off staying at home.

 

[tempest]

Did Chuso fall?

Don’t know what happened to Eleftherios Petrounias but he didn’t make the final. He has enough points from Cottbus to qualify for Worlds.

I sometimes read his name the way that Harry Potter shouts his patronus charm.
