August 20th, 2010 | floor (women), Gymnastics

A routine so good, it might have been done in the late 1980s!

Love it! There are so few gymnast in the USA & abroad that have that polish that certain je ne sais quoui that take one back to the 1980s where gymnastics was really about artistry.

She is awesome. Reminds me of Ashley Postell who was awesome too.

It’s nice, but still doesn’t compare to late 80′s quality. Two things: Get the shoulders down and pressed back and ENOUGH with the horribly broken, “limp” wrist look. If she could fix that, her upper body carriage and line would improve dramatically and then we can start comparing her to the late 80′s :)

I agree TP. People find this as classy when in the real world it is anything but. Even in the 90′s this wouldn’t cut it.

Yes, but you seen the National Dance workout tape. I saw it at congress, she and Shapiro can dance. In fact Mattie dances anytime she isn’t doing 4 tumbling runs, and 3 high level dance moves so that she can score well.

I think her triple turn is really good, and she has a nice dance quality and her tumbling is great. I think she’s got something special. Love her.
