Day 1: {Results} The judges gave Jade a 9.4 execution score on her DTY. WTF?

Day 1: Seniors [Live Scoring] [Starts lists] ** Turns into Live scoring with D score **Shilese is out. My thoughts below Viedo: [INTERNATIONAL FEED]

Day 1: Juniors & Seniors Video [Session 1] Juniors: Day 1: [Results] Seniors: Day 1 (early session)[Live Results] [Start Lists] ** will turn into live scoring with D scoring

My girl Harlow is tied for third, and 1st on Floor. (WOOO) She has been doing the same routines every time but she’s only now being recognized by the judges. Her beam has a lot of bent knees, so I get her lower scores there, but compared to Pease who gets every benefit, it’s still suspect. Harlow [Beam] [Floor] She fell on beam so 12.400 I get.

Juniors and Seniors: Session 1

Shilese has pulled out of Championships. I am indifferent here. She has the resume including the one event this year. Do you really want to kill her now? The timing sucks tho. Girls are currently competing. At least wait until after. I think if anyone deserves this pass to Trials it’s one of two names. Simone or Shillese. Then I am thinking she seems fine in training and has no issue showing training videos. in the end this is best for USAG and Shilese, and no one else really has the resume to back it up.

Podium Training: I feel like Skye’s Cheng is a game changer. It’s messy but not as bad as Jade’s is, and she has great distance and good height. I think if she hits that she may pass Jordan.

Suni looking for attention and causing drama. The moral of the story? Don’t search your name if you can’t handle the heat in the kitchen, with a knife, Suni Lee. (Thanks Lauren)

Gabby info is at the bottom.

THERE IS A GOD! Gabby has withdrawn. Smart decision. She wasn’t ready. No Olympic Trials. Sorry, you people want to make her a saint for coming in to train when she felt like it and giving 20% be my guest, but the over-praising and special treatment wanted by fans was self-entitled BS. I am proud of her for knowing she didn’t have it but of course, she waited til now to pull out. I TAKE IT BACK. Fake ass ankle injury as her excuse and then she talks about how she inspired every gymnast and she is continuing to 2028. And of course, ” she also plans to reunite with her longtime representative, Lowell Taub of Range Sports.”Do you need any more proof of what this was all about NOW?

Start Lists: Day 1 [Session 1] )Juniors and Seniors [Session 2] [Live Results] The start lists should have the actual scores with difficulty added too. [List of judges] Now we know why Simone had a 9.2 execution deductions on vault with a huge flying back 4 feet. Aimee was one of the judges. (Thanks, Hart of Dixie.)

Here is the chat with Shilee, Leanne, and Skye. Nothing earth-shattering. They didn’t answer any of the fan questions. One about hearing crowd noice but I didn’t see that question. Leanne basically said she isn’t upgrading so she might as well just go home. Sorry, but playing it safe isn’t going to get you on this team. So disappointing. Skye may try the Chang (It is going well in practice) but only if she feels ready. (Try it now, and if it doesn’t work, leave it out at Trials, SKYE) Shilese tries too hard to be likable. There is something off about her in this video.
