Olympic Leos
GK Rep told me they sent over a total of 11 leos for each girl. A couple were approved last minute and sent over, so who knows what they will wear.

I really liked the pink leos from Podium training. Our women looked awesome

i am not a huge fan of our leos from prelims however i think that i prefer them to the white with a huge flag on it.

i havn't seen the pink ones anyone got a link?

i am really sick of asutralia's leos. They havn't changed them since their purple and white ones which the wore to the 2003 worlds. i don't dislike them i just think they should get new ones. i don't think they are diffrent enough and dom'y show anything off

i really love romania's leos

Ooooooo That is extremely tacky! I wouldn't let my gymie wear that to a practice much less in front of the world!

Did Australia not have a black white and yellow one on at some point? I'm sure I saw it on NBC. They have a slideshow going, but you can't copy the pics.

I liked the US pink one a lot better than what i could see of it in the picture. Still not the greatest but it was all right. And i agree with the rest of you, WHY would you wear a pink leo to the olympics? Even if it is podium training. I did however like the red leo with the stars (USA). Maybe it would look better without the gold star in the middle?! (but maybe that's just me).

What do you think of the Canadian leos? I thought they looked pretty good on the two Canadians. (sorry can't find a pic to put on).

Did not like these leos at all. And poor Alicia looks heartbroken.
