In our state, the Judges Cup is seen as the unofficial opener for the season where a lot of smiles are dished out. In fact, at this meet, one of the judges went out of his way to call out every gymnast's name before her routine (until he lost interest). That's a very nice gesture I thought.
For the gymnasts, critiques are provided based on their performances. That is why our gym makes it a point to have all optionals to attend. For the compulsories, it's a very relaxing meet.
To the judges, it's a fund raiser for the judging body (whatever that's called) where all the judges donate their time.
I think something similar is run in other states. It's supposed to rotate from one location to the next every season. |

| VERY nice routine! I'm so happy to have been able to see your DD do her routines. Bars were awesome... and I agree with a previous poster re: the pause on floor... it really wasn't all that long!! Regarding missteps... I didn't even notice them. That's what's so nice about optionals... they're not coutning every little step and hand flip! HA! Beam was great and so was vault. Looks like she's off to a fantastic season! |

Regarding her floor, the pauses were at 2:42-2:47 then again at 2:50-2:53 in the video. I don't think the judges took off much for the missteps (even though I think they have seen it before) because most routines have about the same amount of pauses designed in.
The choreographer is a pro dancer for Cirque du Soleid and she used to be one of the best gymnasts in the Northeast until she got injured at L9. Because she thought much of my daughter's dance skills (who used to be a competitive dancer also), she got very overly aggressive with the skills and her dance. She threw in lots of tap steps - my daughter's specialty (did anyone notice that uniqueness in the routine?) and circus elements such as chest rolls etc. Throughout last season, my kid struggled with the gym elements due to the fast pace. After seeing what others were only doing, the coaches and we decided that it was best to rework the number to allow her to catch her breaths before her tumblings. So, the dance that you're seeing here has been watered down by about a third. The part that she messed up here was a pose series following by a fast tap sequence. So, instead, she stood in the corner and repaced and repositioned herself repeatedly with the arms. |
