the Gymternet answers
I don’t spend much time on message boards or Tumblr. I see too many simple questions (try Google.com first) and too many repeated questions.
Instead of answering questions one at a time on her Tumblr, Lauren Hopkins plans to collect the most popular questions and answer them on The Gymternet.
Good idea. 🙂
Has there been anymore information coming out from Canada about what the heck is going on with Victoria Moors? …
Who do you think USA is going to send to Worlds this year?
How do you think Russia will do compared to the U.S. at Worlds based on how the Russian Cup is going?
At what point do you think kids trying to make the national team should just go back to level 10? A certain age? Progression of skills?
To read the answers to those and more, click over to Gymternet – YOU ASKED, THE GYMTERNET ANSWERED!
The latest Gymnastics Canada post does not even mention Victoria Moors, by the way. Not a good sign. Without Tori, Canada’s team at World’s will not be a lock for Team Finals.
