Silvia Colossi-Pelaez – Beam

Silvia is one of the sweetest girls you’ve ever met.

A few days ago she was soaking up the Florida sunshine, a rookie on the NCAA Champion Gators.

I was surprised to see her registered for #WChAntwerp.

On the other hand, she’s competing one of 11 13 new elements submitted for evaluation during the 44th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships:

Aerial Cartwheel Across the Beam

Though that element is hardly “new”, Silvia does do it easily. And beautifully.

I’ll be cheering.

… And NOW I hear that Silvia’s been registered for the AA.

Good luck! 🙂

CONGRATS to the USA video team. Awesome job … even if you could only watch their LIVE stream of #WChAntwerp in the States.

Here’s the kind of editing you get from Video Team America.

Moors – double double layout

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

On YouTube, this video can be played 720p at 25% speed.

The “Moors” deserves to go down in history. This is a double double layout. With deduction. 🙂

Thanks for posting this version, Ron.

Ellie Black’s tumbling

The super cool 2 ½ step out to 3/1 twist is back.

It’s one of 11 new elements submitted for evaluation during the 44th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships.

The list of provisional new elements include five on Floor Exercise, three on Balance Beam, two on Uneven Bars and one on Vault.

Question?

Those two elements are in the Code. Ellie competed the line at the Olympics.

What’s to be evaluated?

YouTube won’t let me slow down the double double layout.

It’s certainly impressive in regular speed.

Bring that to FINALS. 🙂

This is what a STAR looks like.

Following podium training #WChAntwerp.

I’m campaigning for McKayla to win the Longines Prize for Elegance.

Vasiliki Millousi is my second choice. … Unfortunately, I’ve been told that a gymnast must be in the AA Final to be considered.

McKayla Maroney – Bars

Not bad.

@sporteverywh:

McKayla Maroney has a 24.2 programme: 6.3 on VT, 5.9 on UB, 5.9 on BB and 6.1 on FX.

She had a fall on Beam Aerial. But aside from that, looked better than ever.

McKayla could make the U.S. 2014 Worlds Team with these routines.
