Not sure that even after nearly 15 years since Beth competed beam do I particularly want to revisit it…

I just saw this on insta. Is the back side somi in the code?

Hmm. I post a link but it doesn’t seem to be working. It’s shelley engel

It’s just a picture of her sitting in split

oh yes… she competed a back with a 1/4 twist… I could do that on a low beam and even though I’m the wrong sex, I used to joke it could be named after me

Yes, I’m aware. At least contribute and give her some deductions, girl

 

[MaryClare]

Her left hip isn’t square and she has open hands, her shoulders are about 20 degrees too far forward and her grip of beam is hiding a rear sickled foot.

I was going through old Cottbus videos and I can’t believe I forgot this gymnast. What a shame she retired due to a knee injury, she would have been a great asset for Germany.
