why was Ellie not up on floor after all?
i’m so glad russia sent spiridonova to gander to compete two events (you’re supposed to do three), score a 12 and a 10, finish last, and keep gymnasts like perebinosova, akhaimova, kharenkova, etc etc etc from gaining valuable experience and winning that sweet prize money :)
I think she didn't qualify to the second round after the first two events.
Bc she's also doing the swiss cup on Sunday and she'll definitly need three events prepared for that...
honestly giulia still looked about 50 million times better than i expected
That last bar routine was terrifying.
her e score was 1.466. i’ve never seen an e-score that low.
I once had 11 points in deductions for a level 2 girl. Lucky for her the E score can't go below 0😉

oh my god thank you so much!
the gymternet: “I guess my prediction for vault this year will be Carey, Paseka and Andrade! no other main contenders, none outstanding”
giulia steingruber:
SURPRISE BITCH!!!
She said in an interview last week that her goal was to hit 4/4 and to make AA finals.
Maybe she's surprised herself!?
Wasn’t sure if this was posted already but these are the draws for WAG for Montreal. more stuff available to look at (x)

reblogging this again since worlds starts this week
GIULIA HAS HER VAULTS BACK!!!
So a few years ago on my original Tumblr I created a gymternet map where a ton of people put in what city/country they lived in. I just remembered it, so if you haven’t put your city in or if you’ve moved go ahead and do so and find out if other people live near you!
Yoooo who is bay area I see you

Wow Steingruber? I wonder what she’ll look like at Worlds?
At Swiss Nationals this weekend, she had an all-around score of 52.750. She has not yet regained all of her difficulty (just a front handspring 1/2, FTY, no H acro passes,...) and her performance was quite shaky (exept for vault).
Let’s just hope she can stay healthy, her foot hurt on the second day of competition and she couldn’t do beam and floor finals.
ilaria in that leo is PERFECTION
