Sorry for the lack of updates recently, I had ACL surgery today and had been running around like crazy all week to get everything I needed done before the surgery! I’ll try to be back to updating soon but this medicine makes me so drowsy, I fall asleep practically every time I blink! Seriously, I slept about 12 hours today, not counting the 3 hour surgery!
Anyways, in the meantime, I...

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to the 2012 American Vault Specialist, McKayla Maroney. This gymnast competes the best 2 1/2 twisting Yurchenko I have even seen. She has great speed going into the vault, gets a nice block off the horse, shows great height and form in the air, and nails the blind landing almost every time. This gymnast is...

She is so pretty to watch on this event with beautiful form and...

Here’s Natalie Boelter, a Level 9 from Swiss Turners, on beam from the qualifiers. I like the unique choreography she has, especially the bridge to kickover! Definitely one to keep an eye on, she also had a very nice floor routine! Her teammate Nadia Cho also had an awesome beam routine, unfortunately she fell twice but you can just see all the potential there!

This Weekend....
It’s such a busy gymnastics weekend! I’m headed to Minneapolis in the morning (seriously way too early, I have to leave my house at 5 am GROSS) to meet up with Anne (from Gymnastike!) to film the Northern Lights Classic. Last year it was an awesome meet, so I’m really excited! I’ll try to post a few videos or pictures or something from the meet, but for the most part...
