Yellow and Gray Leotards, Blue and White Gym Leos, Pink Gymnastics Leotards and More at the Visa 2010 Championships
Let me begin by saying that I am fully aware that the 2010 Visa Championships took place in August of this year, so yes – this post is a little late. I did want to take the time to highlight the performances by some of the young ladies and point out their very colorful leotards (hey, that’s what I do here). We will start out with one of the favorites, Bridget Sloan. Bridget wore two distinct leos for this competition. One was an elegant pink and white and the other had a blue body with a green border around the neck for her performances on beam. She performed on beam in spite of being injured and as a result struggled on nailing her front aerial connection. Additionally, she was wobbly on her full turn and struggled on the front tuck. She kept an excellent attitude throughout her performance and persevered to the end. You can view her routine here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn69H0vdEZA&feature=channel.
Also performing at the championships was Rebecca Bross wearing a classy purple and white gymnastics leotard for her performance on the bars. Her lines were impeccable and her body was tight the entire time. This was a great performance and ended with her first stuck landing of the night. Here is a link to her routine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvofeBuyafY. Mattie Larson had an exceptional night on floor and her gray and yellow gymnastics leotard was stunning. She had incredible power on her double back layout, and excellent form while executing the triple twist in her second tumbling pass. You can judge this routine for yourself here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrlagilIOUk&feature=channel. Finally, an old favorite, Alicia Sacramone, provided solid performances on vault while styling a blue bodied leotard with purple sleeves. Her vaults for the evening were a two-and-a-half twisting front handspring with excellent form and a yurchenko with a one-and-a-half twist. Both of these vaults were solid and had a ton of power. Watch them here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmMWCkoW9EI.
I recently stumbled across a new site to get discount gymnastics leotards. The site is the Down East Outlet which apparently specializes in providing all sorts of GK leotards. Not only do they have gymnastics leotards, but they also provide leotards for other sports as well. There isn’t a whole lot of information on the site, but they do promise deep discounts and a broad selection. The main page of the site has an email address if you are looking for more information on the products they have.
To round out this month’s article, I wanted to remind you that now is the perfect time to begin to look for Christmas specials on girls gymnastics leotards. Most of your big name gym leo providers (Addidas, GK, Danskin, Alpha Factor, etc.) are beginning to roll out their special Christmas deals. Make sure you order early for the best selection.
