Gymnastics #24 - The Road to Paris

[Lara]

I want Tiana to make it.

 

[Spikefan]

Love Tiana’s FX. Suni 1, Tiana 2 in enjoyment level.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

And what a gorgeous FX from Tiana!!!! Loved it!!

 

[canbelto]

Gorgeous vault from Hezly.

Sam trying to drum up drama that maybe Suni, Jordan, and Jade won’t make the team

 

[peibeck]

Tiana just has that polish I feel Hezly lacks on floor and beam.

 

[FiveRinger]

It's along the Seine. Peyton Manning, Kelly Clarkson, and Mike Tirico are hosting the opening ceremonies and have talked about it. It's so different from what we usually see.

Thank you for sharing. Don't tell anyone, but I took PTO from work that day just so I could see the Opening Ceremonies.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I think Healy just made the team.

 

[Allskate]

I'm so freaking happy for Suni. I'm so glad she'll be going to the Olympics again. Partly because I love her gymnastics, but partly because it's so nice to see after everything she's been through.

 

[Rukia]

i want to watch the olympics on whatever mix of things the person who mixes these floor routines takes

 

[ptvvibezz]

Aww

 

[HeatherC]

I kind of love that these ladies in the mix for that fifth spot are making it super hard for the committee but my heart really wants Tiana to get that fifth spot.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I think the WCC team must go to raves for musical inspiration.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

The last spot, two traveling alternates, and two of the non-traveling alternates will come from:

Joscelyn, Tiana, Hezly, Leanne, Kaliya

Who on earth is going to be the last alternate?

I imagine whoever is the highest AA of the rest?

 

[Spikefan]

Ugh, we are going to see Simone/Josc footage constantly in Paris. I will need to fire up my VPN.

 

[beckab81]

Josc is making it a tough decision... fantastic night for her.

 

[HeatherC]

Awww, I love that the entire men's team is there cheering on the ladies!

 

[Rukia]

if i never hear from hezly's dad again that's fine

 

[peibeck]

Josc nailing floor and beam in such commanding manner may give her the edge, and she's got international experience.

Love that the men are watching and cheering the women on.

 

[Karen-W]

I think Healy just made the team.

I don't think so. I need to crunch the numbers but Tiana is making it really close.

 

[Wyliefan]

Joscelyn and Simone look to be the same height when they're next to each other, but out there by herself Joscelyn looks so tiny!

 

[Allskate]

I just LOVE Tiana's floor! Please, if not Leanne, then I want her on this team!

If you had told me I would love a routine to that music, I would have called you a liar. But, I love it. Absolutely love it. She's my first choice, followed by Hezly, and then Leanne. So, it's probably going to be Jocelyn. Thats how this week has gone for me.

 

[FiveRinger]

if i never hear from hezly's dad again that's fine

If she's in Paris you are going to see him a hell of a lot

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I think Healy just made the team.

Tiana’s vault was higher though?

TBH, I think it’s between Hezly and Joscelyn because of beam. Hezly’s vault is the lowest of the three, so I don’t think that score is the one that puts her in.

 

[Rukia]

If she's in Paris you are going to see him a hell of a lot

not if i can tab away fast enough and i'm really good at that

 

[Lara]

Major major kudos to these gymnasts. I would not want to be on the selection committee for sure. No matter the final decision at least they won’t have regrets over their performance today.

 

[Spikefan]

If she's in Paris you are going to see him a hell of a lot

Tiana it is.

 

[skatfan]

Josc nailing floor and beam in such commanding manner may give her the edge, and she's got international experience.

Love that the men are watching and cheering the women on.

Josc outscored Tiana on all 4 events in trials.

 

[4rkidz]

After that floor I’m leaning to either Jocelyn or Tiana

 

[FiveRinger]

If you had told me I would love a routine to that music, I would have called you a liar. But, I love it. Absolutely love it. She's my first choice, followed by Hezly, and then Leanne. So, it's probably going to be Jocelyn. Thats how this week has gone for me.

I refuse to pick. I can come up with a reason to pick any of them. But I'm no expert. So Selection Committee, do your worst!!
