Diana Varinska had 13.566 as well, but lost out in the tie-break.

Click PLAY or watch Lyu Jiaqi on Facebook. LOVE the double twist. Surprised at the loose form. And always disappointed in routines where gymnasts switch one hand at a time.

Click PLAY or watch it on Twitter. No sound, but that’s a good way to evaluate her choreography rather than musicality.

She won Vault, as well. Olympic qualifying points!

Stuttgart World Cup – Simone, Ana, Elisabeth

All hail the greatest of all time.

Blythe Lawrence reports that the staging of the competition was awesome. Gymnasts entered running through a corridor of local gymnasts with superb lighting and smoke.

Worlds Stuttgart should be even better.

Note – There is a huge Octoberfest-like festival in Stuttgart concurrent with Worlds. Very little accommodation is available at any price. 😕
