toes together, heels apart

Though it’s less aesthetically pleasing, I don’t think we should deduct for this kind of position.

Many gymnasts cannot keep heels and toes together due to their anatomy.

HPTC Gymnastics Camp, Idaho

Another terrific year at Camp. I’ve attended most since it launched in Couer d’Alene. This was as good as any in the past.

Olympic Gold medalist Daniela Silivas was once again our headliner.

Coach Summer working flexibility with the boys

Cliff jumping was a highlight for the older kids. This Camp schedules many activities to challenge your courage.

Younger gymnasts working the low Ropes Course.

At this point I’d call Laurie ~~the~~ one of the favourites for World Champion 2017.

Olympians should stay off social media

During the Olympic Games.

They should have people filtering communications from the media and general public. I heard of many who were distracted. Including Cata Ponor.

Bea Gheorghisor posted an exhaustive review of the social media issues.

Fact is that Cata’s comeback for Rio was fantastic. It’s clear she was the best choice for Romanian Olympian.

UPDATE – On Gymternet Clan I read that Cata Ponor has deleted her official Instagram and Twitter accounts. Should you see any accounts that are posing as her … they are fake accounts.
