They started out on bars. This is the event that she has struggled with most because of one skill...the kip. It's the very first move she does when she brings her feet up to the bar and then pulls herself up. Her coach just has to barely put his hand on her back and she can do it. In the video he helped a little too much and she over-rotated over the bar. Her coach really wanted her to get this skill so they have focused on it alot in practice. Now she says she has a hard time doing a front hip circle (the other element where she falls, which she could easily do as a Level 3) because she hasn't practiced it much. I'm sure she'll get it!
She did okay on the beam, but not her best. She had a couple of falls. She usually gets her cartwheel just fine and even the split jump but I think the bars threw her off a little. Moving on and clearing your head is definitely something a gymnast needs to do so hopefully she can learn that mental skill!
She did awesome on floor. We didn't realize she was leading off the group so we missed recording the first 10-15 seconds.
Vault is by far her best event. I would even dare say she is the best vaulter on her team. Another mom has told me that so I'm not the only one that thinks so! :) She totally rocked her second vault and stuck the landing!
Can't wait to see these girls compete! It's great to see them progress and encourage each other. They are a great group of girls!
