I have to confess that I stopped watching as consistently as I had been. Maybe I don’t feel as hopeful as before, as she is never seen addressing the issues that held her back in competitions this spring/summer.

It’s incredibly cool that she’s doing all this, of course, and I hope she keeps going and is happy doing it, regardless of competitive outcomes.

Yep. She and Shilese Jones are the pick-ups that fell under the radar with Grace, Jade, and Melanie being announced.
 
That combo SHOULD get bonus, but none of the current rules allows that. Acro connections must be bounding.

The better, far simpler connection bonus rules I proposed would make that E + E.
 
I mean, if she did it as an actual piked barani, I’d agree.

But the way she’s doing it (free round-off from two feet) I’m fine with an E.
 
Lol how much wider is the LaserBeam compared to a regular beam?
 
I think the red lines are where the regular beam would be, with an inch on either side?
