KJ couldn’t believe Oklahoma’s Super 6
Watch the post-meet interview on FloGymnastics.
“They were just rolling,” Kindler said. “We had just amazing performance after amazing performance. It felt crazy. I almost felt I wasn’t here. …”
The most important routine was Chayse Capps on Bars. Their first HIT of the Super 6.
Oklahoma, LSU, Florida
1. Oklahoma- 198.3875
2. LSU- 197.7375
3. Florida- 197.7000
4. UCLA- 197.2625
5. Utah- 196.5875
6. Alabama- 196.0000

Sean Senters – YTT
Recall that Sasha Artemev competed Yurchenko Triple Twist. He never quite landed it, however. Sean’s is much better.

Kohei competes this weekend
Uchimura on Thursday said he is not looking to push himself too hard at the championships which double as the second round of trials for the world championships in October in Montreal. He said his focus will be to get his feel back for competition.
“I’ve somehow got myself fit enough to take part in all six apparatus,” Uchimura said. “I’m not concerned by how I do, but I’m thinking more about getting my instincts back for competitions.” …
