@gymnasticstufff I think I have video (I am doing a terrible job with videos tonight). It was so nicr.

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@gymnasticstufff And Georgia's floor!!

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@gymnasticstufff Actually it was in the background it Ruby's beam and Georgia's bars (same time) so I have it on video. I'll look later.

@gymnasticstufff I was watching someone else and only caught the landing!

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@gymnasticstufff Aaargh - the usual.

I'm actually watching in person for the first time ever!

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@missrobinson Have you encountered the book bedazzling trend yet? With a little more consumption (buying the sparkles, paying for a class, paying for someone to bedazzle it for you) you can turn it into sparkly trash!

@gymnasticstufff I remember when that happened, I was hoping it would get her thinking about working towards the AA Moving forward. I just figure she doesn’t want to do vault and doesn’t need to because the other 3 apparatus are enough to make her a lock for team events.

@DavidMizher @khnh80044 The athlete is Alexsa Kachan (junior world champion) and the venue is the World Age Group Championships in Pamplona.

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@DavidMizher @khnh80044 Not AI. This gymnastic discipline is called tumbling, and this is what elite tumbling looks like. Tumbling is governed by World Gymnastics (just like the more widely known disciplines). If you go to YouTube you’ll see many examples of this gymnast’s world class work.

@gymnasticstufff I’m sure I saw somewhere that Ruby had withdrawn from the Oceania championships due to injury, so I assume that’s what is happening here too.

@The_Real_Solyad @dcexaminer Oh, that explains why you were asking, on one of its posts, about its editorial policy. I’m happy to have helped!

[MsMotts @MsMotts]

@The_Real_Solyad @dcexaminer And so on. Google is free. And yeah, seems like when the issue goes seriously beyond partisan politics, they call it how they see it.

@gymnasticstufff Not a stupid question. It’s a genuine issue they plan for. They calculate the trajectory of the landing very precisely, choose a landing site that doesn’t have much air traffic, and coordinate very closely with global air traffic controls to keep planes away from the danger zone.

@GoingawayOf @UsDays2021 @Mr_Husky1 @grok This picture is an AI hallucination, and the actual brooch looks nothing like it. There seem to be no up close pictures available on the web, but if you google it you’ll see pictures of the Queen wearing it. It is actually shaped like a green flower with a gold stem.

@gymnasticstufff Thanks for sharing. This is so nice - beautifully executed and I like the choreography (which is saying something, because I find most beam choreography awful.)

@hacylhacyl @WarrenVsCCP Plus this specific photo was taken in China in 2024!
