[Sasha]

Dammit. Did she have a rough fall or something? (i.e., is she injured?)

 

[Doug1233]

.3 might be she took too long to remount?

 

[JaJa]

Hurt herself in warm ups

 

[Denn]

@RedBirdie I had Memmel at 7.8. I did not deduct the free hip except the fall. If I had, I would have had 7.4. There were two places I took 0.1 instead of 0.3. But overall, i think her execution is great on bars.

 

[Doug1233]

Why wouldn’t you deduct the free hip?

 

[lovegymnasts]

According the big screen, jade is currently 7th on floor
That doesn’t bode well
The big hitters have not gone and she is still 7th

 

[JaJa]

Is Leanne Wong changing the equation?

 

[Doug1233]

Her dance elements were a mess and she had 3’s on pretty much all her landings. And I think she had a 2 feet OOB.

 

[Doug1233]

Suni lands witth her feet 4 miles apart on all her twisting tumbling.

 

[RedBirdie]

Denn, did you have a total gymgasam when she did her Pak and the full pirouette? Because I sure did! Flawless.

 

[lovegymnasts]

Yes!!!
She’s coming for them

 

[Doug1233]

I was SO surprised she caught that Hindorff. It was YUUUGE. I kinda got a bit scared.

 

[cats]

That was a solid defense beam from Suni. Saved herself a lot of tenths.

 

[Sasha]

Looks like Suni really brought it on bars, huh?

 

[Denn]

I also think the Hindorff is a showstopper. And the stuck dismount was exciting, too!

 

[cats]

I am fully Team Wong. She has to overcome the Fong Factor but she is gorgeous.

 

[Doug1233]

We always knew Leanne has the potential. But can she do that consistently every time?

 

[Doug1233]

That was a GREAT bar routine from Chiles.
