Gymnastics #24 - The Road to Paris

[ptvvibezz]

UGH SUNI YOU'RE AMAZING

 

[Spikefan]

That was beautiful but I’m still stressed about the limp.

 

[HeatherC]

We have to remember that this event is being held at home for Suni.....I can't even imagine the extra pressure that's been on her tonight. She's actually done pretty well all things considered!

 

[skatfan]

getting all the feels watching Suni finish her floor

if anything I actually think this was kind of huge for her because it's like "look if things start melting down around me i'm still going to get you some scores ok"

I hate to say this but about 50% of the women limp after floor. They seem to recover by the next event. Don’t panic

I'm trying to work and watch. Impossible...but I didn't see a limp. And she didn't perform like she had one.

She was limping before floor, though.

OMG - that vault from Simone! It feels like it's getting stronger and stronger with each event.

 

[HeatherC]

THE QUEEN STRIKES AGAIN!!!

 

[HeatherC]

I really hope Simone's husband is able to go see her in Paris (the Olympics start when he should be in training with the Bears). He's such a great cheerleader!

It was before floor, just a camera follow to stress us out.

 

[ptvvibezz]

This crowd is really supportive, love it

jokes on them i stress myself out enough without them

 

[HeatherC]

Just like her triple-double on FX, that double pike vault has gotten SO much better since she first debuted it! Incredible.

 

[Spikefan]

I would go if I were him, teams bounce him around. Go support the loyal GOAT.

 

[FiveRinger]

Tonight was the first time that I closed my eyes when Simone vaulted. All of these injuries are scaring the hell out of me. I watched the replay after the cheers. I'm about ready for this ride to be over...lol

 

[Carolla5501]

It was worth staying a night in Minneapolis just to see that vault in person. OMG!!!!!

 

[ptvvibezz]

I'm really loving this Jade and Simone friendship

I know I shouldn’t but I never worry about Simone physically. Her technique is just perfect.

 

[HeatherC]

You can tell how close some of these ladies are.....Simone still there for Jordan and just now for Jade. She is such a natural leader for women's gymnastics and everyone respects her so much. I love it!

 

[FiveRinger]

Look at Simone coaching Jade. She's just the best....seriously....a humble spirit

 

[her grace]

I think I saw a happy Juda in the men’s team selection fluff!

 

[Karen-W]

Fabulous vault from Jade!!!!!

 

[Rukia]

all these songs used in figure skating with no lyrics though so it's like the ghost version just haunting me

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, major OOB from Leanne on her FX!

 

[HeatherC]

Bummer on that huge OOB but an overall nice routine from Leanne.

 

[Sarah]

I wish I still had the individual feeds up. I want to see Jade’s amanar.

 

[FiveRinger]

Bummer on that huge OOB but an overall nice routine from Leanne.

Glad she kept it simple. I'm afraid for everyone at this point. Please be safe and don't do anything crazy

 

[Debbie S]

Without Shilese and Skye, I feel like Jade and Jordan are basically locks, with Simone and Suni. It probably comes down to Leanne vs Joscelyn....Leanne probably does a better job filling the holes, but I would only use her on bars and beam.

Shilese is a better bet than Leanne on bars, but IMO it's too risky to take an injured athlete.
