Ragan Smith - Floor Exercise - 2018 U.S. Gymnastics Championships - Senior Women Day 2

[@ZachWendland]

Breaks my heart watching her limp off of the floor. 2020 is so far away, I wish she'd take the time her body needs to recover.

[@xxxxMidKnightxxxx]

Such a unique style and look. She'll always be one of my favorites of all time.

[@anikokoren3417]

This routine and music is incredibly beautiful and I have to cry every time I watch this, I wanted her to have a longer and healthier career😭

[@BenThompson]

I LOVE THIS ROUTINE!!!!!!!!! She needs more time off and more strength training and she could still be top 3 in the US

[@gymnerd8719]

I really love this routine for Ragan and I love that the crowd was really cheering her on tonight, knowing that she was struggling with an injury.

[@LoBytes]

Either she’s really affected by the USA not having regular camps and lost her confidence, or she’s over her head and refuses to believe that her pain is hurting her career. Even in the past, her worst still got her on the team... not this year. Still my favorite regardless.

[@jojox9791]

Liz Aldrich she has broken toes!!

[@beautitudes]

I think it’s the camps and lack of her competing this year. The camps are good and hopefully next year God willing they will have them again. Our juniors need it

[@neversaygoodluck]

It's 100% injury. She has torn ligaments that she didn't get surgery on despite the doctors recommending it and three broken toes, and has talked about how she is in constant pain because he leg is always bruised and swollen. It's been almost 10 months since that injury. That's bad. Confidence isn't going to fix this. If anything performing badly through injury is what will bring her confidence down.

[@azzurraghezzo5659]

I really hope she will do the surgery. I'm worried that if she doesn't decide quickly, she will have so much pain and complications just before the Olympics. I'm wondering if she will be able to go through the Olympics if she's already in so much pain. Please Ragan, and everyone who is beside her... Do the right choice! I hope the best for Ragan ❤️

[@notinuse1708]

Is this @azzilightvids KZbin channel?

[@kevinedwards6785]

I love her music choice and choreography is always interesting, I'm never board!, I love for her to get healthy, and USA gymnastics to do right by her.

[@user-kh9ki3kq8m]

poor Ragan. She really needs to just get her surgery.

[@ashleyfoor9577]

Even with the fall I feel like she looked so much more powerful, stronger, and confident than Friday night- on all events for that matter. Yes she still had lots of errors but it reminds me of Riley in 2017 while she was battling injuries and look at her now. I truly believe with more time to heal she’ll come back as the force we knew in 2019. I’m rooting for her recovery and cannot wait to watch

[@adrianfacundomusic]

i love her leo choices!!!

[@davindarkins3643]

amazing as always!!! her first pass was so smooth

[@notmateosamaroo7908]

Guys just remember she grew a lot from the 2017 worlds so right now she’ll be a little off since he center of gravity changed so by next year she’ll get back her tumbling and as for her ankle let’s just pray that she has no more injuries because I do love her gymnastics and I think she deserves to be performing on the international stage

[@jennisc631]

Wish her all of fun and luck for her new time by college gymnastics 🍀👌🏼❤️

[@Baxx_94]

Choreography is incredible!

[@easytoslip]

Love Ragan on floor, glad she is competing again! Hopefully will stay healthy and compete elite for a few more years at least, though I'm betting she's excited and looking forward to college.

[@jsnrsn]

This music would’ve been perfect for Doha...

[@gothicwitch101]

Question - a lot of people keep mentioning her injury and the need for a surgery. Why is she allowed to compete if she isn’t fully healed?

[@hazelnutspred3348]

Because her coach is making her compete... Either that, or they were just gonna finish out the year and heal up in 2019

[@omrianhussain4704]

If she had taken the year off she could of came back better like Riley and would of been abolle to compete now even if she does the surgery after the selection camp and possibly worlds she might not be able to be strong enough to make Tokyo

[@Andrew-pf5fj]

That triple was SCARY. Are they trying to injure her ankle further by throwing the same passes she did last year when she's clearly not 100%?

[@tiredxillennial7019]

Would Tim please stop saying “Ragan would have beaten Morgan had she not been injured”?! And Ragan would never have even been national champion if Simone had not taken time off. Repeatedly saying Morgan only won because Ragan was out is incredibly rude and trivializes Morgan’s win.

[@omrianhussain4704]

What do you mean he's competely right your right about ragan only winning because Simone took time off but in that case Morgan wouldn't even be in the finals so what's your point

[@jayenga22]

maybe it's just me, but the way Tim pronounces things really annoys me sometimes like the way he emphasizes the A on certain words. Examples from the mens broadcast on Saturday when he said gymnAst and MikulAk, for some reason overemphasizing the A.

[@br0wnsug3h]

Alejandro Flores Tim said Ragan's qualification score was 7 tenths higher than Morgan's winning score (that's with 2 falls also). While he didn't expressly say it out loud, it's heavily implied everyone expected Ragan to win judging by how her season & qualification went. Morgan had a terrible Nationals, and many were surprised she made the team because she lacked consistency. With that said, Morgan was the best that day, thanks to a slew of injuries and falls.

[@imissnj2]

Well, Morgan proved at this competition that her win at Worlds was just the beginning. She placed 2nd out of that whole field, and she was amazing and strong. So people can keep trying to downplay her World gold, but she is showing them she is not to be taken lightly or dismissed.

[@maryciaccio7916]

Alejandro Flores morgan also only won because simone was gone... notice how far behind morgan is now that simone is back? yeah she’s been second at classics and nationals but her scores are so much lower than simone

[@angelamartinez3672]

my favourite floor routine

[@davindarkins3643]

amazing even with the fall!!! passes were smooth

[@josecamacho8012]

I love how people cheer her

[@ricardocontreras2406]

Great , great !!! Excellent gymnast ... Sorry for the mistake :(

[@graciegirl2930]

I hope college will turn her around like it did to Kaetlyn Ohashi, Alicia Boren, and Margzetta Frazier. USA gymnastics effects your mood and won't let you have fun, In Margzetta's floor routine it looks like she was holding in all her dance moves.

[@ThePrintMajesty]

Looks like her 1 1/2 through to triple isn’t working for her, it’s very inconsistent and shes always short or under rotated. I think she should change her pass or take time to recover.

[@shoshomo4220]

Love you Ragan

[@martinfelsenfeld6012]

Hope she’s doing it in Japan next month!

[@patrice5612]

It's sad to see that she hasn't got her full power

[@leatzschule698]

I hope she gets back to elite in 2021

[@carrieharris4921]

Ragan you did so good I wish I could meet you in person

[@emilykaemerer7391]

Since Reagan is now a college gymnast, can she still compete in the Olympics and World’s?

[@kylo180]

I think she just needs some time off. those landings looked painful even without knowing her injury history.

[@fiercecurls12]

She looks so rough and tired this is bad

[@luzcardona5365]

Dùolingo

[@luzcardona5365]

B 8

[@addiezimmerman9866]

I love the music but I feel like she went to quick for it. I think I might use this for my floor music this coming season!

[@Just2Brothershl1314]

Her double layout was much better but she needs time to heal and be healthy for the 2019 season or even the 2020 season if she needs more time

[@cathrynrosenberg7377]

I feel her pain I had to compete 3 meets with a strained Achilles tendon

[@mabelmiller1604]

So underscored!!

[@Decovah]

Mabel Miller Not really she put her hand the ground which counts as a fall also not the best form and a bit messy on some landings

[@jojox9791]

No she was fairly scored. Putting that hand down was detrimental. I know shes trying to prove she should be on that WC team. and maybe she does have time to recover, but I hope she isn't causing more harm

[@br0wnsug3h]

Jhilton 70 She wasn't selected for the National team, so she kiss any chance of going to World's bye for this year.

[@joelyf3759]

Oh Hi 雨 where did he say that?

[@bloomany]

Give her time to heal, is that a joke? Last years worlds was ten month ago and it looks that painful, it won’t get better in two month to get her up to the others even if they invite her to camp

[@worldofgymnasts6710]

Can I use your video’s for a edit? I will put a link of your channel in the description.

[@Gwenfckay]

Poor girl is really burning out in front of our eyes..

[@betsybogdan4357]

Where can I purchase this music ???? I want it for comp this year

[@klt5756]

How come her D score was 0.2 lower than day 1? I know her triple twist didn't get credited day 1 but did something else here not get credited?

[@judithbeel7438]

Kelsey I think she lost the connection (and difficulty) on the landing of her 3 pass

[@MeriPT]

She looks so sad here- it’s like all the joy has gone out of her gymnastics.

[@br0wnsug3h]

Poor Ragan. Routine was fairly nice aside from that triple twist. Foot doesn't seem to be bothering her though, so that's good.

[@silas26.]

💓💓💓

[@pao9635]

Name of the song that starts on 1:05???????

[@misoginainternalizadaopres7131]

I'm sure this year she will do better.... it pains me to see her doing awful in this competition, and to see her ultra low score

[@EmilyS1234]

0:32

[@inmysoul_TLH]

U could tell her ankle hurt the whole time

[@gymfan0742]

She always seems to do the double arabian tumbling pass on an angle. Never saw her do it straight.

[@omrianhussain4704]

Where did they take .5 for in difficulty

[@Decovah]

Sharon Blackwood she put her hand down on the triple

[@omrianhussain4704]

@@Decovah why does that take away from her d score though

[@ju974100]

I feel like her triple twist was not credited at all. Her third pass must have come across as a mere 1 1/2 twist step out. Check out the CoP to see if there's a rule about not completing a twisting element and putting a hand down, I'm not sure but the rest of the routine was flawless, so the deduction must come from there.

[@mcwyman7928]

She underrotated it too I think. They might not have given her the full triple.

[@klt5756]

She was only credited with a two-and-a-half twist day 1 though and this was 0.2 lower in difficulty and idk why

[@Galimah]

like all extremely short but muscular female gymnastics it looks veird

[@marjoriegarciapulgar6967]

I personally didn’t like this floor routine. She looked hurt and her legs weren’t straight. ☹️disappointed

[@quenadievea3916]

😭

[@kellya71]

I don't really like her cuz she never puts her hands up after she lands

[@jessi9775]

These girls complain about Marta’s technique but she produced champions and these girls are making to many mistakes

[@laragastelumendi6662]

Jessvanna Hamilton Go research martas technique

[@oj6912]

Shame the condition she presented to this meet, but I love this routine for Ragan
