What do you consider "scored decently"?
I might be able to come up with one.
Let me check with a parent... her daughter scored an 8.55 without giants (and her casts aren't to HS either).At least an 8.5.
DD scored low 9s without giants for most of the year.
What was her routine?
I know what you mean... OG started out Old L4 competing against a girl from a smaller gym. That girl was always beating her. The other girl's gym was smaller and advanced the girl each year and was pushing her to get her to higher levels faster. She did compete 2 years of L7 (where one of our girls caught up to her). Our girl did NOT compete giants... she beat the other girl on bars every time because she was competing UGLY giants. The next year, the girl moved to L8, still with the ugly giants. This past year, we did not see her. I do not know if she competed for her school (in her area, Jr. High competes in the winter) or if she quit or went to a club and they decided they had to fix all of the mistakes she had been allowed to get away with for so long before she could compete (I am actually HOPING this is what happened because she had such potential... her location just doesn't really care about gymnastics - they are more focused on another sport... that is where they spend the money and the time! It's sad.)I also saw plenty of routines with giants that scored low (and we're outscored by routines with no giants) because the giants were not pretty or the overall routine was not up to par (not hitting handstands, etc).
