If you love beautiful form and line, watch all 6 of his routines. He’s happiest about Vault. Ring strength is not there yet for a top AA gymnast.

If UCLA could only get all their star power healthy and hitting at the same time, they could finish high at Championships this year.
Stanford defeated them in this meet.
At American Cup Gabby was awarded 6.5 D-score in the official results.
On Papa Liukin I saw a comment from A Houstonian GymNerd:
While this would have been correct with her intended routine, she inserted a stalder between her Endo ½ and the Shap ½, thus taking away 0.1 CV.
In-bar full (E)-piked tkatchev (E)-Pak(D) 0.3CV
In-bar ½ (D)-Endo ½ (D)-Stalder ©-Chow ½ (E) 0.1 CV
In-bar (D)
DLO (D)
Eight elements: DDDDDEEE = 3.5
CV = 0.4
EGR = 2.5D-score = 6.4

Judges at the 2012 Pacific Rim called that Vault an Amanar. The worst judging I can recall in many, many years. There was no correction. No reprimand to the judges. 😦
Wow. Routines like this are what make Jr Gymnix so exciting.
