PopMusicJunkie Posted May 16 Posted May 16 (edited) The tour kicked off days ago and seems like a lot of fun. Dates can be found here. I don't watch DWTS but he's such a cutie. Edited September 22 by PopMusicJunkie 3

ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 17 ATRL Moderator Posted May 17 I need Gabby to have a better showing than American Classic because I need all three Olympic champions on this team. 1

fridayteenage Posted May 17 Posted May 17 (edited) hmm, looked it up and there's one all around gold olympian who was older than 26, Gorokhovskaya in 1952 when she was 30. the last 12 were all teens. but at the worlds in october, the top 3 were: simone (currently 27), rebecca (25), and shilese (21).

ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 19 ATRL Moderator Posted May 19 Devastated for Konnor’s achilles injury, and devastated for Gabby crumbling under the pressure. I know she wants this so bad but you can tell her mental health isn’t quite there yet. Since Gabby is pretty much out of it for this Olympics, I really hope she continues (moves AWAY FROM WOGA) and keeps competing next quad 2
PopMusicJunkie Posted May 19 Author Posted May 19 Random thoughts: I want the Wolf Turn banned, it's an ugly skill on both beam or floor. I dislike it so much. Shilese Jones is nice to watch, she gives me shades of Nastia Liukin but with better power, form, and amplitude. I think Jordan Chilies will be a lock for the team, with Jones & Biles. Suni's beam was gorgeous. I hope she remains healthy thru Nationals and Trials. There was some serious voodoo going on with Bars. So many mistakes. I really enjoy Sam Peszek as a commentator. I enjoy Skye Blakely but she is way too inconsistent. Jade Carey is definitely in the mix. 35 minutes ago, khalyan said: Devastated for Konnor's achilles injury, and devastated for Gabby crumbling under the pressure.

I felt for Gabby, it appears to be a mental block she can't get over, I'm rooting for her. 1

PopMusicJunkie Posted May 25 Author Posted May 25 I'm a Magnificent 7 stan, I love this quad so much. Each brought something that contributed to the team. The fluff pieces and emphasizes on age was on a whole other level during the 90's tho.
PopMusicJunkie Posted May 31 Author Posted May 31 (edited) Brody is a Trumpie so that automactically knocks him out for me, but he was solid tonight even with a knee brace. I hope Fred, Colt, Khoi, or Shane come back strong on Saturday. Yul's hip looks to be bothering him, so I hope he's good as well. Edited May 31 by PopMusicJunkie
PopMusicJunkie Posted May 31 Author Posted May 31 Shilese out of the competition, hoping for a speedy recovery and she's ready by Trials.
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 1 Author Posted June 1 Simone is truly the GOAT, like there was any doubt. 60+ is insane. Skye really showed up tonight, if she hits on Sunday and at Trails, she'll likely make the team. Jordan was looking very strong until her final pass on floor. Hoping she hits on Sunday. Suni, Jade, and Kayla were good as well.
ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted June 1 ATRL Moderator Posted June 1 DEVASTATED for Trinity. I’ve gotten to know her a little bit over the last few years and she is the sweetest person, really hoping her injury is minor and she’s able to finish this competition on her terms. 1
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 2 Author Posted June 2 I didn't watch tonight's competition (I'll watch tomorrow) but as expected Brody took 1st, with Fred & Khoi holding their own, Yul rebounded, and the battle between Don & Asher appears to have been settled with the former.

Donnell supremacy 1
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 3 Author Posted June 3 (edited) Simone just doing Simone things, Skye really made a great case during this Championship, Suni, Jordan, and Jade had some stumbles but were still good. Hezly Rivera coming like a dark house tho. The girls were showing out with their leo's tonight, Leanne won it for me. Edited June 3 by PopMusicJunkie
fridayteenage Posted June 3 Posted June 3 simone's 2nd bars win, by 0.05 points looks like sweeping everything else is her usual MO at nationals 1
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 22 Author Posted June 22 This primaries July 17th. Word is there will be two more episodes released after the Olympics. 1
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 28 Author Posted June 28 https://www.instagram.com/p/C8urHppJWlt/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I feel so bad for Skye, I really do think she was going to make the team this time. Fred and Brody and the definite locks for the team, Kohi's leg isn't looking too good right now but hopefully he's good for Day 2. Both Asher & Yuk showed up last night. I don't think Don is making the team at all unfortunately.
PopMusicJunkie Posted June 29 Author Posted June 29 Chile ... the start of these trials has been bad luck. First it was Skye Blakely, now Kayla DiCello is out with an Achilles injury and Shilese Jones injured her knee during vault warmups. She did good on bars but withdraw from the rest of the meet. No word if she'll compete on Sunday. The top 4 tho is solid, talk about a redemption arc for gold.
