*Warning...brag alert*
Hello fellow Chalk Bucketeers
Friday was Pixie's 1st USAG Level 4 meet after being moved up from just plain ol' level 4! She did so-so, score wise. But came out feeling like a princess!
She had such a blast she was glowing from head to toe! She really enjoyed the atmosphere of the meet and the comradery with her teammates. In level 4 the girls didn't cheer each other on like they do in the USAG level 4. Plus she got to wear a long-sleeved leo and she thought she was all that, lol!
She may not have won on the podium but in my eyes and her's she was the all around winner of the night!
She started out on
Floor: her routine is more polished on the little things...hands, toes, knees, etc. She held her first handstand longer but needs to hold the second one a tad bit longer. Her RBHS have more power but she is still bending her knees.
score: 8.8 7th place
Bars: Her bar routine has improved drastically, in my eyes anyway, lol! She just carries herself with more confidence. She missed her stride circle. Well, over rotated. She was on cloud 9. So, I didn't have the heart to ask her about it. It is what it is. I thought she was amazing!
score: 8.4 7th place
Vault: Up next her nemesis, haha! Actually it's her favorite even but the one that she has the hardest time with, go figure! Her first vault...the best I've ever seen her do!! I couldn't believe it was her! straight as an arrow!! Who is this girl!?! The 2nd vault...not so much, lol! Huge pike and flopped it over. I told her I wouldn't put it in the video
score: 8.9 10th
Can anyone tell me how they score the vaults? Do the take they best score or average the two together?
Beam: Very solid for her! A few balance checks but no falls and she did her dismount! Her leap is still very timid as is her handstand. She is working hard on getting it to vertical. She can do it at the gym most practices but since she is afraid of the beam I think she just played it safe.
score: 8.65 3rd
All Around: 5th place out of 16
In my eyes she was a winner
The team got 4th place and her teammates let her take the trophy home for the weekend, since it was her 1st meet with them. So sweet!!
Well, here's her montage if you are interested. As always be sure to click the link on the bottom right hand corner of the video for better quality~
