Favorite Skill!
What's your favorite skill on each event? Doesn't matter if it's one your working or one you already have
Vault: uh... tsuks. Just working those though
Bars: Love any type of handstand.
Beam: I'm working suicides. And I love them 
Floor: Front Tucks. Pretty much in any way.

Vault- Uh the only vault I do right now is fhs full so I like those I guess but I can't wait til I get a new vault.
Bars- Giants
Beam- bhs bhs? I like back tuck dismounts! haha I never did them before then at open gym the other night I got my teammate to spot me for one and she thought I was all weird but I was like I don't do them but then I kept doing them by myself haha.
Floor- I like front tumbling. I like throwing random stuff like aerials, front aerials but i only tried that once and it didn't turn out well lol handstand pirouettes press handstands haha alll that stuff

Floor: Either a layout thomas or a piked front one-and-three.
Pommels: None whatsoever. Pommel horse and I are long time enemies.
Rings: Inverted cross. I can't hold them with any consistancy, but it's just so satisfying when you hit one.
Vault: Changes from week to week. Right now I'd say a handspring front half.
P-bars: Kip straddle cut to handstand.
High bar: Giants.

Vault: I only do front handsprings...am working 1/2 on 1/2 off, but not sure I'm liking it
Beam: split leap-straddle jump, front walkovers
Floor: back extension rolls, all jumps excluding wolf( sorry, I just think they're ugly)
Bars: cast handstand, flyaways! (tuck, layout, layout 1/2)
Can you tell I'm more into dance?
