I had just had my 3rd child about 2 weeks prior (I was still young ) and was sleep deprived...but stayed up every time gymnastics was shown -since they didn't show it till late in the evening. That was a great gymnastics Olympics year - from the Russians and the Romanians also. To watch it was something I won't forget.
This is quite possibly the most exquisite compulsory FX EVER. In the history of the world. LillyPod was just stunning, and took the care to complete each and every skill to 100% perfection. Every tiny detail was attended to. Absolutely every skill was fully completed before going on to the next skill. No rushing.
I also like how Tim has a "gymgasm" at the end of her first pass.
right. its similar in so many ways, you think they'd be the first to respect what we do.
I get mad when gymnasts say that cheerleading is for girls that couldnt be gymnasts, because our tumbling is less "polished". Compared to gymnastics, our sport is a baby. Definitely still in its beginning stages. Have you ever watched gymnastics from like, the 50s?? Same deal.
Oh just casually crying while I watch a documentary on the M7
In the team FINAL this olympic year (it's changed over time), 3 gymnasts perform, and all 3 scores count (I believe they're either averaged or totaled, not sure which). I don't believe we will know who is competing where yet, although a few are pretty obvious (Gabby and Kyla are def on bars, Jordyn and Maroney are deff on vault, etc). For Qualifications, I believe 4 compete and 3 scores count. Qualifications are also how you get into event finals..Does anyone know how the team finals work at the olympics (I'm not 100% on the process) has it been finalised as to which events team USA gymnasts will be competing on? or will each gymnast perform on every event and the scores added up? I ask as I may be going to watch and want to know exactly which I want to see!
Me too.i just watched that whole thing on youtube
