What an incredible Super 6. Beam was awesome.

No team counted a fall. In fact, there were only 2 falls over 144 routines.

Marisa Dick replaces Thema Williams

UPDATE – T&T says Thema has an ankle injury.

___original post:

Marisa will now compete for Trinidad and Tobago at Test Meet rather than Thema.

Thema is here with coach John Geddert. She looked good in podium training. Perhaps she was injured in the training hall.

The switch was so last minute that Marisa’s coaches could not get a visa in time. Ricardo Lue Shue will coach Marisa in Rio.

Both are great gymnasts. Either could qualify to the Olympics.

David Jessen qualified to the Olympics

Clean, smart Gymnastics.

Oh … and these other guys. 🙂

Germany, Ukraine, Netherlands, France to Olympics

It was an incredible Team competition. Sadly there was no video stream from the Test Meet. Unless you happen to follow Arthur Nory on Periscope.TV 🙂

1. Germany 350.609
2. Ukraine 350.160
3. Netherlands 347.444

Romania just missed as Canada did last Olympics. The worst team placement. 😦

So far as I can recall, Romania went 30/30 without a fall. They did the job.

Dutch men and women both qualified. 🙂

German redemption

During the last Olympic cycle it was Great Britain who missed at Worlds 2011 and were forced to qualify at Test Meet.

This cycle it was Germany.

Fabian Hambüchen is still out with shoulder pain that doesn’t want to go away. Many in Germany were worried the team won’t qualify here.

But Germany had a terrific team competition in the first of 3 flights of men’s preliminaries. Everyone is very confident they will rank one of the top 4 teams. Most likely #1.

Congratulations.
