OMG – Teen Choice cancelled
We’d not heard much detail on Gymnastics in the Teen Choice Live Tour. It promised to be lamer than average.
Never mind. It’s been cancelled.
Perhaps our Olympic Champion will be able to get back in the Gym. 🙂

Aunt Joyce has a new Figure Skating video podcast called The Skating Lesson. I’m hoping he expands to “The Gymnastics Lesson”.
iGtv is an awesome Gymnastics tv show. But they’ve only posted 4 episodes since 2005.
We need more. 🙂

Michigan is for real
I’ve never been a big fan of the Michigan Wolverines and have not followed them all that closely.
Until now.
The Michigan Gymnastics team is on fire this season and are proving themselves to be contenders for the “Super 6” in April.
During the 2012 season, Michigan spent most of their season ranked in the low 20’s with a smaller team than usual. They didn’t have a senior class and they lost two important team members, Natalie Beilstein and Brittnee Martinez due to injuries. But Michigan entered this season with a fresh start and some new team members. They gain 3 former elites in their freshman class and one level 10 standout! …

Deborah Ede’s recovery
When Oklahoma teen Deborah Ede woke up on March 8, she was just three months shy of her 16th birthday and a week away from the 2012 Trampoline and Tumbling Winter Classic in St. Petersburg, Florida. Little did she know that life as she knew it was about to tumble down around her. With one wrong move, the gymnast suffered a devastating spinal cord injury and became a quadriplegic. …
Emergency surgery fused the damaged vertebrae, and her medical file labeled her as a “complete quadriplegic.” …
Just 162 days after “The Crash,” Ede could already walk to the door when a guest arrived, go upstairs to let her parents know, and come back down the stairs again with just one hand on the rail to guide her. She could curl up on the sofa, cross her legs, and look like just about any teenager in her own environment.
The miracle didn’t happen overnight, but day-by-day Ede showed improvement. Her doctors say that she has outpaced almost every other spinal cord injury of her kind that they have witnessed. …

At the Windy City Invite.
I saw that linked from Stick It Media:
In their inaugural meet of the season, Michigan (431.30) fared pretty well without Sam Mikulak by outlasting defending NCAA champs Illinois (427.75), Ohio State (427.75), Minnesota (425.75), Iowa (422.35) and UIC (401.60).
Wolverine sophomore all-arounder Adrian de los Angeles (88.40) came out strong out of the gate to show why he’ll be a contender for the NCAA AA title. He and teammate Rohan Sebastian (86.75) were the top two all-arounders, providing a lot of scoring depth for the Wolverines. …
Stacey Ervin competes for Michigan.
