I heard that Natsumi Sasada had some injuries preventing her from qualifying to the Japanese Worlds team in Tokyo.
Her Beam mount — layout Garrison (VIDEO of the Garrison) — is the “best” ever done in history, in my opinion. (This in an era of boring, simple starts.)
Click PLAY or watch her prelims routine from last weekend — All Japan Championships.
I also heard that she does have a good to chance to make their Olympic team. And perhaps get the skill named after her.
