Boom goes the Double Double.

1st WGA Cash Cup

World Gymnastics Association (WGA) is a NEW organization seeking to promote Gymnastics by offering online CA$H competitions.

A cool idea. You can compete Pommels against 2021 World Champion Stephen Nedoroscik, for example.

WGA has FIG modified rules, as you can see.

I’m all for anything that promotes the sport and offers financial remuneration.

The 1st competition was MAG and is posted on YouTube. You’ll see the competitors are of mixed ability level.

I’ll be following this innovation closely.

Whitney has over 1.6 million subscribers on her YouTube channel.

And more on other social media.

Thanks for all the good years, Whitney.

Good job standing up your last dismount on Bars. 😀

P!nk for Unicef

Former gymnast P!nk is still rocking at age-43.

UNICEF USA is a great cause. The United Nations Children’s Fund.

But watch this video to have a laugh with her son, Jameson. 😀

Back Tuck on the Wheel of Death

I’m not often shocked at Cirque acrobatics.

But this trick in the new Vegas show MAD APPLE did freak me out.
