I also like melody leotards and they are great to work with! I also have a few leos from Jillybeansleotards. They are super reasonable. You can get them in tank or racer back. I only have them in the spandex material none in the metallic material, but they're super comfortable!!

However, Simone could have said alternate thinking in terms of the non-traveling alternates, Key and Baumann. In every other case Marta had never chosen a traveling alternate this early. I could be completely wrong and Simone was in fact talking about the traveling alternate but just wanted to...

Kwan is committed to Kentucky. Dickson to Alabama.

After reading a different article, that included quotes from an official in Belarus, it also seems that Belarus is a bit mislead on the talent of these girls. The article mentioned at least twice that Belarus is very excited to see someone on the podium for their country. These girls placed dead...

Also thinking about it. Gotta see if I can afford a flight, hotel and tickets! But I'd really love to!!

I live about 2 hrs away so I couldn't resist. I will be going to both days of women's competition - Juniors and Seniors. And staying downtown in a hotel. I attended in Pittsburgh last year and stayed out side of the city closer to a family friend. It was fine but I'm super excited to be able to...

I highly recommend Rebecca's Mom. The fabric is the softest I've ever felt in leos, for sure the most comfy Leo I own!

UCLA hands down my favorite team. Though of course I must support my home team as well, University of Kentucky!

I agree that it will be interesting to see how WAG plays out in the coming years. The US is just so dominate as a team it seems like others shouldn't even try for first. Same with Simone in the AA. So what will the approaches of other countries be like in the coming years? If someone is lucky...

Every pair of grips I've had, reisport and us glove, I've ordered exactly according to the size chart and both were to big. Just don't wear, return and order the size down. Unfortunately it's more of a hassle but it's worth it to have the correct size.

Exact same problem with me! I won't swing big enough to do an uprise because I feel like I'm going to peel! My first grips were reisport and those are us glove. I believe both were to long when I first got them but that's how I thought they should fit since I went with what my coaches said...

I'd love the info for the Facebook group!

Thanks!! I'll have to get new ones for sure! One broken elbow was enough! I'll definitely check with a different coach regarding grips from now on! That thread is very helpful! Sorry I didn't see it and made my own thread! Thanks for posting it though! Seems like I should go a size down from...

I had grips and I felt like I was going to peel when I would swing. After I actually peeled once and broke my arm I decided it was time for new grips (I could completely straighten my hand with the leather still bent like it would be around the bar) I held off long in the first place because my...

I'm 5'3" and was the tallest on my team (all levels) for a while!!
