@@saragrant9749And now 3!

I'm Canadian. Love her and elly

Lee is his wife 😂

Usually step forward

giocurve I agree never have I seen her stick a dismount. Doesn’t even look like she needed to step

I know she doesn't even need the step most times it's just like her signature dismount move by now. Lol

She did stick her bars dismount during the 2008 all-around in Beijing

giocurve i haven’t seen her stick in competition but she did stick it in the 2008 olympic podium training.

Because they're really not doing anything that dangerous.

Maybe not but starting with my first science lab in 7th grade through to my biomedical research lab work today, 13 years after my first lab, there were two rules in lab: hair back and off your face and no consuming anything. 95% of the time, rule 3 is goggles on. Idr I'd they were wearing goggles in this clip and I'm not rewatching, but I think they were, so logic would indicate that more fundamental lab rules would also be enforced, i.e. hair up. But that's just my experience in 3 countries, 5 states, and 13 tears, so YMMV. Maybe Iowa does things differently.

He’s back here in the US, back to coaching at Chow gymnastics. They stay in touch pretty often from what I’ve heard.

If an athlete turns 16 within the calendar year she is fine to compete in the senior level.

+Jen Mareck The American Cup wasn't a World Cup event in 2007, unlike 2011, so the rules for who could be invited to compete were different. The US could basically make up their own rules and bring whoever they wanted, as long as they were a senior. When it became a World Cup event, the FIG set rules for invites, one of them being the gymnast had to be old enough to compete at the previous Worlds, which is why Jordyn's age was a big deal to the other countries in 2011. I believe 2011 was actually the first year it was a World Cup event

you have to remember the first time Jordan competed in an American cup she was 13 I do believe so I think it was just a change in the type of competition

They do have a JUNIOR american cup. Thats why Jordan competed @ 13. The controversary over the one she won wasnt her age so much as it was that since it was a world cup event by then they take the top 8 gymnasts from the previous worlds. She didnt compete in those worlds. Thw reason she was there is due to an injured athlete and the FIG rules state the host country can put in whoever they want. Marta chose Jordan to give her aome experience

ovtransportation there is no junior American Cup. Jordyn competed as a 13 y/o in 2009 at the regular competition because it was not an FIG World Cup event and USA gym could invite whomever they wanted. Especially after an Olympic year, when so many gymnasts are retired or taking a break, relying on a talented junior is not unusual. Same reason Kristal Uzelac competed in 2001, Vanessa Atler in 1997, and Kristie Phillips in 1986 when they were juniors.

Nice to hear her brought down a peg.

I’m pretty sure Marta made some comments to Shawn about her weight specifically during the 08 Olympic run. Shawn has said that someone had told her that the reason she didn’t win the Olympic AA was because she was too fat. She didn’t say it was Marta but I think it was Marta🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

@@laurielynne2006 That's why I'm glad they can't bully gymnasts anymore. How is she fat? No gymnast is. I guess being healthy is unappealing in some people's eyes smh

Correct! I’m so glad that a- she has been dismissed by NBC as a commentator and b- she has been vastly surpassed by today’s crew of Canadian gymnasts… led by Ellie Black!

Do you mock the manner in which all folk pronounce words? Seems you have a very infantile mind… if there’s even a mind there at all.
