VT - Yao CHN - 14.966

VT - Jordyn Wieber USA - Nice high Amanar. Looked very good in the air, very powerful. Pretty good step on landing, but very clean vault.

UB - Koko Tsurumi JPN - low to high work, great stalder/pirouetting work into both tkatchev and jaeger releases, transitions high to low and back up but misses high bar and comes off. Gets back up and goes for DLO dismount but very little power, and she puts her hands down :( This hasn't been a very good week for her.

VT - Wieber USA - 15.716

UB - Tsurumi JPN - 12.533 :( Such a shame.

VT - Viktoria Komova RUS - Pretty long wait for judges, she looks nervous standing there. Hope she has a better night here than team finals.

VT - Huang Qiushuang CHN - DTY little crossed legs off to side in air, but otherwise good vault, little hop. Gets 14.733.

VT - Ksenia Afanasyeva RUS - DTY, legs slightly bent in the air, and pretty low landing, very bent legs. Not too bad, but her vault in the TF was much better. Step back on landing. Gets a 14.466 and moves in fifth so far.

 

[bradyelizabeth]

VT - Aly Raisman USA - GREAT DTY! Looks like a stuck landing. Little leg separation onto table, but gorgeous in the air with legs together and chest up. Gets a 15.233 and moves into second.

BB - Ana Porgras ROM - Great first tumble two to layout two feet. Little wobble on connection from front aerial to sheep jump. Very pretty switch ring. Good side somi, but little check on switch leap straight to layout step. Nice two to double pike dismount just a step back.

BB - Porgras ROM - 15.100 and she moves to 3rd behind Raisman and Wieber.

Now off to second apparatus, starting one touch warmups.

[bradyelizabeth]

UB - Wieber USA - Very nice weiler kips, good transition low to high and pirouette back down to low, pretty big form break in handstand, but finishes up strong. Nice tkatchev and stuck DLO dismount. Wow, walking off the podium she looks serious, I've never seen that look from her. Gets a 13.600..

FX - Hannah Whelan GBR - Nice first pass into triple. Second into 2.5 twist, leap out of the pass, little form issue in the air. Good double tuck, a little cowbyed. Nice amplitude on leaps. Final pass double pike hop back.

 

[bradyelizabeth]
