Kyla Ross 10.0 Bars

I can live with this 10. Assuming the judges can’t see the form break on Maloney.

It was a very competitive meet, the best of the season for Utah. Scores were crazy high for both teams.

Several people (judges, coaches & gymnasts) told me evaluation was strict to start the new Olympic cycle. They hope Canadian judges will gradually come to match international scores for selection meets.

too many 10s in NCAA?

I don’t think so, actually. This has been an excellent season so far.

Greg Marsden posted some history on 10s.

Myia Hambrick sticks landings

See just a few on Tumblr.

are Arabians forwards or backwards tumbling?

WAG considers them forward (SALTOS FORWARD & SIDEWARD). MAG backward. It’s silly that the two Technical committees can’t agree.

The takeoff is more critical than the landing position in my opinion. Arabians are much more a backwards tumbling skill than forwards.
