Day 2 of selection camp (which may or may not influence the decision-making process ) will see everyone compete beam, 8 people compete bars, 3 people compete vault, and 1 Dulcy Caylor compete floor.

The stream is set for USAG’s YouTube from the start today, so fingers crossed it will function like something in the vicinity of a real sport.

We have the legs rotation up first. Esponda, Carey, Molomo on vault and Caylor on floor.

Caylor – FX – a little lean out of memmel turn – DLO, gets it around, chest down with a hop – back full through to double tuck to front tuck, lower but just gets it, bound forward – wolf double, some arm control but definitely around – double L turn, heel drop – double pike, solid position, hop back tour jete 1/2 to switch 1/2, some back leg.

Esponda – VT 1 – solid DTY, good chest up, hop back, some legs

Esponda – VT 2 – hits Lopez, some piked hips, chest slightly low, hop solid

Carey – VT 1 – Cheng is landed, better chest up landing position than yesterday, quite a large bounce back, some knee crossing.

Carey – VT 2 – Strong DTY, good height, small hop back, some leg form. Both vaults better than yesterday.

Molomo – VT 1 – does a handspring front tuck 1/2, chest super down and lunge forward

Molomo – VT 2 – high Y1.5, large lunge forward

Second rotation will have the full complement of gymnasts on bars and beam.

Rotation 2

Rose – UB – weiler to weiler 1/2, gets it together, connects to maloney to clear hip full to pak – van leeuwen, solid – tkatchev – arches hs on high bar and goes over the wrong way, has to add an extra swing – DLO 1/1, hop to the side

Beam warmup still ongoing. Looks like they’re getting a full 20 minute warmup rotation there, not just a one-touch.

Drusch – BB – loso mount, check – bhs loso loso series is secure – aerial to split to straddle, strong, connected – side aerial, small check – switch to switch 1/2, under with a check – side somi, bigger lean forward – wolf 2.5 – split jump full from side was better, got it back – double pike, lower, step back

Welp, that was rotation 2.

Rotation 3

I’m sorry, everyone is disqualified due to boredom. It took too long. There’s no worlds team.
“Just whenever” is a solid summary of the day from Annie.

Moreau – BB – switch mount to switch 1/2 to back tuck, connected, solid, just somewhat under on switch 1/2 – wolf triple, hit – side aerial to loso, secure, some leg position – aerial to split to straddle, little shoulder dip correction – double pike, super deep and can’t save it, falls

Richardson – UB – jaeger, hit – toe on to toe full, pauses in the middle but works through it – pak, some leg sep – maloney to tkatchev is solidly hit – 1/2 turn on high – DLO 1/1 with a leg separation, hop back

Rivera – BB – wolf 2.5, hit – side aerial, arm circle into split and straddle – bhs lay 2 feet, secure – aerial to split jump, lean forward wobble before korbut – switch ring, good, or as everyone in the background said “gooooooooooooooddddddd” – switch, nice position, goooooooooooddddddddddd – bhs bhs double pike, chest down, step forward, hit.

Pease – BB – wolf triple, strong – switch to split to onodi, hits it – bhs loso loso, secure, some foot and knee position – aerial, leans a little into straddle connection, does the bhs full and hits – side aerial, no trouble – switch 1/2, a bit under – 2.5, some crossed legs, nearly holds onto the stick, hop to the side

Rose – BB – switch mount to switch, good combo – fhs front tuck, step forward, keeps it on – wolf triple, solid – bhs loso loso, lean to the side wobble, keeps it on again – aerial, check – side aerial, little pause before split and straddle – 2.5 dismount, step forward.

Well, that was sure a collection of disconnected, scoreless gymnastics we saw. We’ll wait on the scores now, and the team, which is time TBD.

The same highest-scoring team of Rivera, Pease, Bullock, Blakely, Esponda from nationals seemed to reconfirm itself yesterday, but that still means you would have to leave a sure 6 tenths of D from Carey’s Cheng on the sidelines.
