She finished 9th all-around and showed off a new floor routine.
Floor was difficult in training as Georgia found it hard to get the timing on the Speith Floor. She hit her new floor routine and was the only gymnast with 3 double saultos at the comp. Most athletes - including the Chinese - only did one. Unfortunately Georgia landed out of the floor on her first and last pass – so was given a 1.0 penalty. Given the Arabian double Saulto is new she handled herself really well – and the new floor dance was done clean.

For her first International assignment this was a very good job. Many coaches and judges came to us and commented on her presentation and skill level and were very impressed with her.
Well done, G-Whee! Be proud of your progress and have a safe journey home!
Yay!! Good girl!
ReplyDeletegood on ya george!
ReplyDeleteWell done, Georgia! I'm excited to see your floor exercise.
ReplyDeleteGoes to show how misleading scores can be, particularly with the new Code deductions. OOBs are fairly correctable deductions, at least! And remember -- Lauren Mitchell used to have the problem of high level skills with poor control on landing, and now she's the world silver medallsit on FX!
Yikes, is that a VELOUR leotard on the Chinese gymnast in the photo? I haven't seen one of those for a while.
Hope we see some videos...?
Well done Georgia!
