Leilani is finished with another meet season in gymnastics. She competed Level 7 again, because her bars were not quite ready to move up to Level 8 yet. She had a good time, and was once again blessed with no injuries. She qualified to compete in the state meet, and finished with 4th place on beam for the state of Oregon.
We are proud of her accomplishments. Unfortunately we didn't get a video of her winning routine, but we have pictures. We also have videos from other meets.
These are pictures of her winning routine and her warm up - my dad took pictures of both, and I am not entirely sure which are which.
2 back walk overs...
round off...
dismount.
There are lots of leaps, turns and other poses, but you can't get pictures of everything.
These next shots are from her floor routine. She is doing some sort of flip here (although she would tell me that is not what it is called).
She actually is supposed to be bent on this, because she is pushing up and down with one arm.
I love how high she can get on this one.
Leilani really likes her coaches. This is Rosen, and he coaches her on bars and vault. His wife, Nali, coaches her on beam and floor. They are from Bulgaria, and he coached the Olympic team there before they moved here. She trusts them, and feels like they have her best interest at heart...which is an improvement over her state of mind at our old gym.
*I can't get any videos of her routines to load, but I will keep trying. Maybe on a new post?
