All Highest Score Uneven Bars Performance ✨ U.S. Gymnastics National Championships 2000-2010

And she's planning on unveiling a combination that could be one of the major buzzes in Sydney, Australia. Comes up right here, two releases in a row. There's one. Unbelievable. Nothing like unveiling a skill at the national championships with the title on the line. That is big time, trend-setting, buzz-creating gymnastics. Very beautiful line. Nice toes. Same kind of look as Natalie Foley. See a lot of stalters with the new code, right into a release here, very tricky. Beautiful. Katie was actually in a back brace for six weeks, a little bit of overuse with her lower back. Doctors thought it would be best to stabilize her. For that reason, hasn't had a lot of time to train for these national championships, but is looking very good. Great landing. After three straight junior national championships, let's see what the reaction is on that broken toe in the dismount. And again on night one of competition, that decision was totally Crystal's to compete. Coming up right here is where she had problems in the first day. No problems. Beautiful one and a half. One of the reasons why Crystal, in my opinion, could have won this championships is how improved she is on this event. That was beautiful. This is Tasha's best event. This is where she can really fly. Starts right here. Big release skill. Way in the air. A little bit close. But she hangs on. Another release right here. Beautiful. Love her exercises. It's all about flight, all about air. Like a little kid playing on a jungle gym. It's great. You know, when Tasha is on, she can swing bars with the best in the world. When she has stumbled in night one, she has been nearly flawless in competition for the past couple of years. Especially Tim on one of her better apparatus. And this, of course, being exquisite. She works the uneven bars with such perfect form and amplitude. Look at all of these moves that she's doing on the high bar. Perfect handstand positions. Totally extended shoulders. And she flies high right here. Beautiful release move. Watch how it's so elegant from the high bar down to the low bar. Beautiful rhythm throughout the exercise. And on night one, she scored a 9.75. And this looks to be a score that will be right up there. And I'll tell you, she has such an amazing repertoire of skills. This routine is almost completely redone. She adds elements and a major release coming up right here. She's world champion on this event and deserves to be. And where the judges will not be able to take any execution scores, will be on these handstands because she reaches them perfectly. Right there. Just absolutely flawless execution. Beautiful release skills. Watch this. She just floats down to that low bar. On night one, she was back in the gym. And guess what? Doing a new dismount. It's really tricky right here. Full and a half turn. Into a big release. Flies high. She has a beautiful line. Perfect toe point. She goes from that high bar to the low bar. It's like on a playground playing. It's awesome. So here comes the new dismount. She added a half turn. Right here. Why didn't she do that? But the thing that really sets her apart is that skills come one after another. Big skills. She doesn't have a lot of filler at all. Coming up right here, she's going to do a full spin. And now it's really wild. Right here, she'll do a full and a half turn. Right here into a release. It just never stops. Now tell me this doesn't look like someone playing on a playground. Just flying around. Speaking of flying, she's going to fly down to the low bar. Look at that. Beautiful execution. And the whole time, those ankles are glued together. And trust me, that is not an easy thing to do throughout this very difficult set. Just the dismount. Routine after routine. Here we go. Nice release. That's not the one though. Here we go. Watch this. Awesome. I asked Valeria about it, her coach. He said, yeah, she flies, man. She soars above the bar. She does know though, there are things that have to get better. Her form is not as precise. She does stuff like... Want to hit 8 for 8. Hitting all the routines. She doesn't even think of the national title at hand. But it is her title to lose. Without a doubt. I think this is by far her best event Huge combinations. But what makes her gymnastics so spectacular is how aggressive she is and how she attacks the equipment. Right here is that skill she had problems on last year. No problem today. Big start.
