I just googled it. OH MY GOD AMERICA THAT'S A FLOOR ROUTINE. Seriously- several of our ladies should take notes.

I've decided that most of our girls don't understand that their arms don't end at their wrists. You have hands, ladies. Watch what you do with them.

I doubt she will. It's not needed.

I want to say 'When don't they?' but that wasn't always true. Serious rough patch.

Addendum- I swear to all that is holy, if MyKayla Skinner doesn't put both her hands on that goshdarned vault I will end her. Seriously, how has that never been fixed?

She technically does put both hands on the vault.. but one is just for a split second haha. Other than that her Cheng isn't bad. And her Amanar looked better than Maggie and Gabby's in PT. I'm bitter she's the alternate and am still hoping that they change and make Nichols or Douglas the alternate instead.

She's just a bit..rough. Even Gabby at less-than-optimal skills at least LOOKED clean. Maggie I could go either way on- she looks like she hasn't 'grown' into her frame yet. Sometimes when she dances it's like she forgets she has hands at the ends of her arms. She's not bad, just needs a bit of polish. Hopefully getting through Worlds will clean her up a bit.

It's like gymnastics toast. :D

Skinner alternate, Dowell doing Vault/Floor/Bars tomorrow, and ya girl GoFriars610 is happy as a clam.
