And best of all, they have brilliant juniors, too. Add Perotti to the current team and you have one heck of a team.

Yep. She knows she has high arches so she deliberately draws attention to them…for example in the Valdez she teases the audience flexing the foot

@@mrparts One of my favorite parts of the exercise. 😁

Her combined best scores from 2023-24 are 13.766 + 14.166 + 14.400 + 13.833 = 56.000 It's possible but without the DTY she would still need Shilese/Melanie to make mistakes. And honestly even Alice's combined best scores put her narrowly ahead (14.166 + 14.666 + 13.733 + 13.566 = 56.164)

She needs big names to have big mistakes. Her bars is still only a 14, while the top AA contenders are all about as high as 14.4 (Simone, Shilese, Rebeca) and VERY consistent. They all have 14.1+ vaults. Manila doesn't have big scores on these two high scoring events of the quad, and close to 14 isn't good enough when so many people can reach 14+ on bars.

Not sure but maybe she'll get a medal on BB final

@@cocoroni1031 Oh I know. I was more being hyperbolic to emphasize that this is the kind of pre-Olympic insurgent momentum I remember from the 10.0 days and early OES when gymnasts would suddenly pop up with a decently competitive arsenal peaking at the right time.

@@nightcore9662 She won beam yesterday.

6.1, but this vid hasn’t the mount combined to the acro series
