that is BY FAR the best name<333 that clapping won us a nice title =) you are incredible Randolph!

Topics like this one crack me up. We are one of the teams that hasn't even competed yet and there is a list of Worlds predictions!

So not to be the negative one here by any means.. so don't jump down my throat! but watching brandon i really like their stunts! very difficult, creative.. risky! and insane when they pull them off! however.. i'm not really feeling their routine, yeah there stunts are good but nothing else seems to pop for me.. just seems like another routine? maybe thats just me & it is still early in the season so we'll see.

Part of me agrees with you. Brandon's routines never really excite me but their stunts are always very difficult and eye catching. As far as choreography, energy and excitement Brandon doesn't do it for me in that department. Not sure why, they just don't , but they are VERY talented and have lots of skill.

this is not trying to be biased at all.. but i do not feel that they are the best all around team.. not saying the best all around team always wins but to be honest im not sure if their tumbling is quite up to par.. the double toe two to fulls are amazing and look great but their boys only two to double? and looks like they only have one girl double from standing tumbling... not saying tumbling is everything but i know with teams like GT and CA with all this tumbling i wonder how things like that will compare..like isaid not saying they shouldnt win but i wonder how far those stunts are going to get you after so much?

also a question: how much extra do you really get for a stunt sequence like that? i feel like the first half with out the stretch to scorp would do it fine for them so how many extra points does it really get them to have three elite skills when it just increases the risk of falling? just a question i love love love this divison and cant wait to see what happens

Its a few tenths higher, its kind of like doing Full arounds after doing a Full/ 1 1/2 up, you're already getting the Full up points but maybe youre better at that so instead of doing an inversion of a release move you do that. The way it is on most score sheets you can't max out without having all 3 major elements. But you can get pretty close with 2 of one and 1 of another, if that makes sense.

do u think its worth the risk? ex: they had that group basically fall on the stretch to scorp? not saying anything.. it was their first comp but just curious

Well I know it wasn't the prettiest stunt ever but I know a lot of teams that are predicted to win and have won Worlds in years past have been dropping. Shooting Stars had a girl fall on the Full Up Stretch and on the Expressup (Giddy up, Switch Up, whatever you call it!) But I doubt they are gonna take them out. Accidents happen and its best to get them out early on in the season.

But I do get what you're saying, sometimes teams should make it easier to hit their show and once that's happened, then upgrade. Sometimes people need to realize you don't need your Worlds show to get the bid, you need something that hits to make it there. (Thats not directed towards Brandon, because I like the stunt the way it is (Just to some teams I've seen this season))
