No doubt the National Team Director will be closely monitoring Brittany at FISU, Brooklyn Moors at Pan Ams.

new Bar grips available

We’ve been testing prototypes of these grips out of Canada for a long time. They are finally available for everyone.

Designed by former gymnast Ariel Crawford, the beginner grip has been customized for the first time grip user with small hands.

The advanced grips have firmer leather strong enough for highest difficulty routines.

Both buckle and Velcro are used to hit the sweet spot for security with adjustability.

A built in elastic loop ensures the Velcro strap cannot come undone on the Bars.

Definitely a contender for the senior team starting next year. Form needs to improve. In the end — even with Marta gone — it will be consistency that gets you on the American teams. Texas Dreams counted no falls, I believe, with 6 gymnasts at Classics.

Ragan Smith – 15.35 Beam

Score is too high. But AWESOME.

Ragan confirms Bars was her worst apparatus. But is happy that she’s improved so much.

Komova – Bars

One of the sweetest swingers in the history of the sport. But she still can’t keep knees straight using the Russian tap before dismount.
