A rough meet, actually.

Too many falls.

Scores are high in some cases, compared with international judging.

I predict there will be a higher HIT rate — for those invited — at Olympic trials.

This must be the cleanest triple double ever competed in Artistic Gymnastics. The boys will be watching this one for many years to come.

All hail the G.O.A.T.

Oliveira – Arabian pike 1/2 out

It’s always problematic to call a full twisting double back a NEW skill, if the timing of the twist changes.

That said, I expect this will go into the Code named for Lorrane Oliveira.
