Aly Raisman Talks Code of Points & Injuries

I hope FIG WTC listens to their Olympic Champion. She’s right.

Rules should be set with respect to the health and safety of competitors.

The FIG Medical Commission should have more input to WTC. 😦

Brittany Rogers 10.0 Vault

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

I recall her doing pretty much exactly the same Vault at NCAA Championships one year … and getting 9.85. 😦 The WRONGEST score I saw at the meet.

I felt Brittany’s DTY was as good as any at Worlds 2015.

Ana competed it first of the three, I believe.

Cheer and Cirque du Soleil

For the first time Cirque is working with Cheerleaders. Cheer bases are as good as the best in Acrobatic Gymnastics.

SUN Wei at American Cup

SUN Wei (born 1995) competed American Cup for China. And hit 6/6 for 87.655.

If you love beautiful form and line, watch all 6 of his routines. He’s happiest about Vault. Ring strength is not there yet for a top AA gymnast.

The highlight for me is his double layout on Floor. An ideal model of that skill. 🙂

Of course the tag line “It’s what you do in the dark, that puts you in the light.” is stupid. 😦

… The brand is changing its media mix from 70% TV and 30% digital to 50%-50%. …

Under Armour in 2013 inked an eight-year deal to provide apparel, footwear and accessories for USA Gymnastics, marking the brand’s first sponsorship of a national governing body for a summer Olympic sport.
