Speaking generally as this was far from a one person issue, I was very disappointed overall with the execution of our leaps series across the board on beam and floor last year, too many kids coming very short on them. Campbell was almost the only one who hit them on beam. Kiya and Desiderio can hit their splits but the switch leap to switch half has to go. I’m not a fan of rotating leaps unless the gymnast is very flexible and can show the position. Having half the lineup do that leap series just isn’t smart routine construction.

I also didn’t understand adding MORE split jumps into Dean’s routine by DD last year. Her leaps are not her strong suit yet DD wanted to do it for more difficulty.

I understand the leaps aren’t every gymnasts strong suits but lsu does themselves no favors putting in additional split jumps and rotating leaps into the routines. It’s literally a built in deductions. They could help themselves just by being smarter in the composition of the routines. Those 9.85 routines could then become 9.9!

I agree 100% regarding the leaps!

Additionally, does anyone know how Brock has looked thus far? I know Jay mentioned during recruiting last year wanting to use her as a vault and bars specialist.
