Great job on the floor! I'm sorry about regionals, but she is a great teammate to go and support her friend. That is the sign of a true champion in my book!
Ok, this site being down all weekend was killing me! I'm so glad it is back up so I can catch up on all the State meet reports!! DD had a good year at level 7. The season started out a bit rough because she hadn't quite perfected her giants and beam, but once she nailed them she took off! She...
Good luck! We are hopping on our flight to Chicago in 6 hours. (Yes I should be asleep.) I know I'm going to be surrounded by CB parents!! I hope all the girls do well and have fun!
I think she looked great and that it was a pretty solid routine. I'm guessing she may not have gotten credit for the heel snap turn in the beginning and the full turn. She has very pretty lines! Good luck!
Thanks for the thoughts. Fear could be some of it. She peeled a couple of times when she very first started them on the high bar. So she may be "putting on the brakes" and not giving her all for an aggressive tap. I wish they had a "turn brain off' switch and just let muscle memory take over!

"Why you do that ?"
"Let's go ladies."
My dd is having issues getting her giants to go over. She casts super high, but then gets about halfway through the tap (to where she's seeing her toes) and then can't get the feet over. Does that make sense? She's been told it is her tap. On strap bar (I know, totally different) they are great...
PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL! It was very rare for the girls who goofed off in practice to score well in meets at level 6. A lot found out they couldn't just wing it and walk out with 9's. My biggest piece of advice is to get the most out of practice!
