6.3 + 8.7 = 15.0

8.7 is over-scored compared with the other top routines.

I’m predicting this super hero will win Europeans on Floor.

training at Desert Lights

This week’s Workout Wednesday features an afternoon practice at Desert Lights Gymnastics in Chandler, AZ. DLG is home to current U.S. Senior National Team Member Mykayla Skinner. Desert Lights has produced 10 USA National Team Members and continues to produce champions at all levels including State, Regional, National and Elite.

Skinner training Patterson dismount on Beam. And Flic 1/1.

Andrew Wiggins’ vertical jump

Andrew Christian Wiggins (born February 23, 1995) is a Canadian basketball player who recently completed a one-year college career for the Kansas Jayhawks. He was the top college basketball recruit in 2013 …

His vertical jump is amazing. Several times in the past he’s exceeded maximum height of testing machines.

Gregory Donovan Ostertag was a 7ft 2in (218 cm) NBA Pro. Who barely left the floor. 🙂

Larisa Iordache – Bars

If the World Championships were next weekend, I’d probably predict Larisa to win.

Bars (and staying on Beam) are her two biggest weaknesses.

Bars are dynamic.

6.0 + 8.533 = 14.533

Assuming 8.90 to be a PERFECT E-score in 2014, does 8.533 look too high to you?

Claudia Fragapane is AWESOME

My new favourite elite FX routine. (Sorry Victoria.)
