Georgia defeats Florida

There’s no question now. The Dawgs are back as Four on the Floor contenders.

Coach Courtney Kupets Carter was one of my favourite gymnasts all time.
The biggest contributor to the 4 consecutive National Team titles for Georgia. I loved her attitude.

Hannah Scharf from Shenderey Gymnastics:

“My highlight has really been hitting four for four, three days in a row – that’s like 12 routines so I`m really proud of that.”

tumbling / Slinky analogy

I can go with this.

It’s similar to the ‘curvilinear action‘ still used in the Canadian coach education system. That was introduced by Gord Osbourne and Boris Verkhovsky back in the day. That version looks at the body more as a flexible rod … with a spring attached to either end.
