Gymnastics Fans' Confessions

“How is Seda lately? I completely forgot about her and now I wonder what she is up to.”

“I wonder if a camera operator has ever told asked coach that’s not spotting, “can you move, you’re blocking the shot?””

“I know this is purely an emotional response…but I wish Jade was the alternate. She’s an amazing gymnast but she has had a lot of international experience and exposure (and she will most likely make it to Tokyo through the World Cup Route) . Skinner has not been to worlds for about 5 years and this would have been a great opportunity for her to show how she handles these situations. If she went well it would have also improved her Olympic chances.”

“Viktoria Komova is the Sasha Cohen of gymnastics”

“I know it’s a long shot, but I’m here for a US WAG Team upset at World’s. Just one flub on bars or beam and the team is at risk of **shocking** not getting the gold! Not likely, but it could happen.”

“Mykayla’s gloating fans probably jinxed her into the alternate spot.”

“Um yes instagram please verify Kara and Jade.”

“So heartbroken that MyKayla is the alternate. As much as I love Grace I do not really see her in that team line-up over MyKayla. Last year though I believe they should have given her the AA oportunity over Morgan whose career seems to be over at this point.”

“Everyone is talking about the double double on beam. But can we talk about the UNEVEN BARS skill Simone submitted!!!”

“It seems like the Chinese are the only ones who don’t train layout step outs to two feet and actually train layouts on beam.”

“I used to not like mykayla skinner and the she started growing on me because I liked the familiar 2016 face and her comeback ethic and now I’m kinda sad she is the alternate but I am so happy for the team that was chosen I don’t know anymore, what is happening to me agggggghh can anybody relate?”
