Are Melody Leotards good suits? They're very pretty and I like that you can customize them. How is the quality? I know the fit runs SUPER small- I usually take an adult small but with Melody's mesurements I'm either an adult large or an adult extra large :eek:
Check ebay for leotards- I think with Christmas nearly here nobody is looking.
I've just won a milano training leo and training shorts for £1, and a milano ex-competition leo for £5.
There's quite a lot on ebay uk going for silly prices...
My daughter needs a new gymnastics leotard and I was going to let her pick one out. She wants to get a long sleeve leotard. I can't remember if I recall any of the other girls in the gym wearing them (aside from competitions). I *think* there might be one other girl on her team who wears long...
I accidentally washed my daughter's competition leo in hot water :(
The colors are black, maroon and it WAS a pearly white. The white is now pearly pinkish/purple. I washed it in cold after the hot, but it looks the same. Is there ANY way I can save this leo??? It is a GK, foil if that...
My daughter has a handwash only leotard from Snowflake designs. Does anyone have a recommendation on the best detergent to handwash this in? And, is there anything else I should know before I try this?
After reading another posters thread in which she was saying the GK leos that were ordered will NOT be there in time for the 1st meet, I was just curious how big a problem this has become this season.
I know of at least 9 gyms (in all different parts of the US) that have the same problem...
Well first off, who chooses your team leos? If so does the person who chooses them ask for the parents and gymnasts imput? I know the girls hc and the optional always got together and choose their leos and the compulsaries did the same. we would then present them to the owners to get them...
What was everones favorite leos that they saw at this years world championships? I really liked this one that beth tweddle wore. Simple yet beautiful, and even though it is still kind of purple it incorporates the countries flag in a unique way.
*sorry I couldn't find a better picture.
What did you think of them? I've only seen online videos and of the US women, but I really do not like the leotards. Is it normal for a country to not use the colors of the flag on their leotards? I hated the stones on the shoulders!
So let me start this by saying my daughter is the pickiest child imaginable with leotards. She won't wear Adidas because wherever the three stripes are sewn it pokes her and makes her itch. She won't wear 90% of the GK leotards because of how the fabric feels and her body type is all wrong for...
One of the girls at our gym was asked to model for one of the leo companies. I was just curious if this could be considered sponsorship for NCAA purposes. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!
On a little bit of a lighter note....
Last year we had a thread where we posted pictures of competition leos and warm-ups. It was very interesting to see all the different styles that are out there. I thought it would be neat to do this again. If you feel comfortable posting a picture of you...
Competition leotards. I love the ones that our gym ordered this year, I really do. Nice choice. However... We paid close to $200 for the dang suckers AND they have a very delicate fabric on the sleeves, which makes them just about unwashable. And they're supposed to last a few years. I'm afraid...
Any tips for me?
I'd like to give it a go, I used to be pretty good at customising clothes as a teenager.
I've tie-dyed lycra in the past which works pretty well. I'd like to start trying spray glitter/crystals etc now.
I'm picking up cheap plain leo's off e-bay when I see them to...
I just realized they posted the winners in their Notes sections on the FB page and we won on the first day. Woohoo! I ordered a size medium so not sure if it will fit her yet, but didn't know what size she took and didn't want it to be too small. Yay!
I thought the rules said only one earring per ear, yet I see several with more than one.
Do tattoos need to be covered? I see some Olympic Rings tats.
And lastly, am I the only one who thinks Shawn Johnson's leo (day 2) is kinda, um, not pretty? I am not being snarky, I admire all these...
From the "how many leos thread" I thought I would ask.....how many of you or your gymmies have a "lucky" leo? What has made it so lucky and if you have a pic even better!!! Here is Alex's lucky leo.
It is so lucky because she passed her kip test in it and also got her flyaway and BHS on beam...
