Sunisa Lee Amazing Floor Debut Auburn @ Arkansas 2022 9.875

[@mjamitche5245]

I can't imagine the year she's had. She must be exhausted to have won the Olympic AA gold, started college and be competing college gymnastics. I take my hat off to her. I started grad school and immediately got mono. I can't imagine competing, much less training as a college gymnast, and studying and taking exams on top of that. I'm surprised she didn't need a break after this summer.

I love it when the girls on the side do the moves with the performer. It makes it seem so much more fun.

Still can't believe she's hmong... never would I ever thought I'd see such an elite hmong athlete in my lifetime of being hmong.

[@otherworld11]

ya know, I think she's tired of being pigeonholed like this - she's American and knows it.

[@exoteeb9204]

@@otherworld11 It's just a comment. You're not Hmong so you don't know how it feels like to be an ethnic minority. She's Hmong American and she knows it. There's nothing wrong here. Boohoo if Hmong people wants to point that out. It's not a big deal. Are you scared of the word Hmong or ethnic? I could also easily say who cares if she's American nationality, she's a human.

@@otherworld11 Id be curious to know what she’s said that makes you think she’s “tired” of being “pigeonholed” - all I’ve ever heard her talk about in regards to her heritage is how proud she is to be Hmong and how much the support of her community means to her.

[@cecebruno1040]

I LOVE her leotard in this competition

[@thegreenskittle]

Her full figured body type is interesting. It's not slender and slim like Nastia, but it's also not quite super muscular like some of the power gymnasts. It's in the middle of the two, imo.

I like the double lay but it’s not very deduction friendly tbh

This is college gymnastics, it’s less harsh with deductions

[@steveb.7278]

@@clairejin1704 okay I’ll rephrase. Relative to other NCAA skills that are safer and easier to stick on floor and will yield the same value, the double lay is more prone to deductions even at the collegiate level.

Considering that this routine should have gotten a 9.700 at most, I don’t think so.

[@thefloorstore]

@@jamesbagley2937 Lol. What deductions would you have taken? In no way did I say "this" routine, in particular, should have gone 9.95-only that the potential is there (I'm find with a 9.8-9.85 for this).

[@jamesbagley2937]

@@thefloorstore ok well if you look closely, it was very overscored routine. Leg separation, bent knees and big pike down on the double layout. Didn’t finish in the same angle as she did when she started the wolf turn which is a big precision deduction. Also she had a hop back and another couple small steps back on her front full (last pass). To me this is a 9.700 or possibly lower.

[@kennedymoua1385]

some of the best teams are oklahoma, florida, utah, lsu. the scoring starts from a 10 and then they deduct it from there. there’s the team competition but they give out all around scores and all the other events too.

[@sarafinley2045]

@@kennedymoua1385 they don’t start from a 10 automatically. they start from a 9,4 or 9,6 i forgot, but they use bonus skills to earn them bonus points. except for vault where they mainly start from a 9,95 or a 10.0

I don't know anything about college gymnastics. Can someone tell me - will Suni be allowed to compete in elite competitions again in the future? But she can't go "pro"?

[@victoriaann8593]

She could- Myk Skinner did elite, college, and then came back to elite. Elite is harder skills and judged differently so I would think if she went back to elite she would stop competing college to focus solely on that like Myk did. NCAA now allows athletes to profit off their name, I’m sure there are restrictions though so not quite sure where/how much money she can make.

Am I missing something? Did she only do two passes? I thought the requirement was three.

The requirement is for three different saltos, and since her second pass was a connection pass, it included two saltos.

[@Zuranthium]

Why is her routine so short.

[@TweetsIsBoss]

i think its bc her final pass is a connection bonus, and the double lay add enough start value for her to only have 2 passes- could be wrong tho

@@TweetsIsBoss Yeah but the routine in general is only 67 seconds long. Very underwhelming.

[@bluepanther1013]

It is not a "big" precision deduction. In elite, you can only get .1 taken off for lack of precision. That is the maximum amount of points that can be taken off.. There is no such thing as a big precision deduction. Precision is probably only a .05 deduction in NCAA.
