US Nationals WAG Day 1

[makam]

Even with the rough showing today, McCallum is still on my Olly team! Biles, Chiles, McCallum, S. Lee.

Looking at all this equipment is actually making me really uncomfortable because it’s not AAI. It somehow looks wrong at Nationals.

 

[cats]

Al looked pissed.

It does not matter that she fell. Everyone is falling, and this isn’t Trials.

 

[JaJa]

Did she fall on bars?

 

[makam]

Right? Lighten up, Al! You don’t want her peaked on day 1 of Nationals!

 

[Sasha]

“Lighten up” doesn’t seem to be part of the GAGE vocabulary.

 

[cats]

Also weird to not have a giant flag behind the beam.

Nastia looks like Britney when she wore the air hostess costume in the Toxic music video

 

[glamafonic]

lol Simone is legit on Instagram in the middle of the competition.

 

[Passion]

Al was laughing with Aleah and Leanne when it showed her waiting for her score, don’t think he was pissed.

 

[Doug1233]

They haven’t shown one Eaker routine. Thats an omen…

 

[Sasha]

She’s was known for her extension, now she’s showing us her extensions.

[RedBirdie]

Can we convince Chellsie to do floor? PLEASE? Even with nothing but front and back layouts.

 

[rlayt]

I’ll drive Mykayla and her beau to Utah myself.

I could drive the moving truck.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

These girls really have trouble with their double twisting fronts.

 

[Onyxrose81]

Compared to everyone else’s errors tonight, that was nothing for Jordan. Her first pass was beautiful.

 

[Sasha]

I don’t understand why someone who tumbles so well would bother with wolf turns that rarely seem to go well…

 

[makam]

Interesting eye makeup from Jordan. Is that some new insta trend style?

 

[Doug1233]

Chiles took out the switch ring and the other double wolf. But then BOMBED the SWitch Full.

Directional issue on that combination pass.
