Stoi: Anastasia Grishina
With the injuries to Mustafina and Komova and Dementyeva's inability to rotate a complete triple twist, Anastasia Grishina is taking full advantage of being the new HBIC of Round Lake. It is only a matter of time before she develops a diva persona and starts giving her coach gray hair by spending too much time with the men's team, but it is a sight to behold. Just keep her away from Nabieva between now and London. Just imagine how pissed off Mustafina gets watching Anastasia from the sidelines.

LOVE this girl's hands and carriage. Can all gymnasts please take note?
ReplyDeleteThat DTY has improved from Jesolo, as as her double arabian : )
Glad you're back, AJ. <3 Any word on Mustafina's injury status? I have been trying to find out anything I can online, but that's always a wild goose chase.
ReplyDeleteI love how she just walks onto floor. Hope she can keep getting better because I really like her.
ReplyDeleteA new beam dismount might be in order though. The double pike is scary.
ReplyDeleteJust another commie waif, that Jordan absofsteel Weiber will crush.
ReplyDeleteHey "Mister"
ReplyDeleteMustafina is back to Munich with Komova for post surgery evaluation on since last week. Her recovery is on track. She will remain in Germany for rehab for a while though. She is planned to appear in next year's Euros. Meanwhile, she is doing some upper body conditioning on UB on constant basis. On the other hand, Komova had an ankle stabilization surgery. She will be able to start tumbling in 4 months and back to comptetion end of year.
I hope this is a satisfactory update.
Alya is planning to participate in Worlds this year on bars and maybe on beam, if she is ready. Komova will be back to trainings in 6 weeks and is going to participate in Worlds if nothing is wrong
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thanks for the updates! I really want to see both of those gymnasts back in competition. They actually made me enjoy gymnastics again.
ReplyDeleteToo bad her floor routine has been sterilized of all of the best choreography. Love her gymnastics though.
ReplyDeleteI think Aliya trying to compete this year would really be pushing it. The last thing she'd want to do is re injure her knee o] due to competing prematurely.
ReplyDeleteAunt Joyce, we miss you.
ReplyDeleteAgreed ^
ReplyDeleteSigh... yes. I come to this page once a day just sort of hoping that there will be something catty to make me cackle, but alas.
ReplyDeleteAunt Joyce....come back :)
ReplyDeleteditto
ReplyDeletePlease come back! This was hands down THE BEST gymnastics blog on the net!
ReplyDeleteAJ, I miss you!! Come back, Little Sheba! I was a gymnast, and now my 7 yr old daughter is a figure skater... this blog covered the best (and worst) of both worlds, and made me laugh, too! Please come back. :)
ReplyDeletewv: restrin - I hope you're just restrin and gonna come back real soon!
I'm dying inside without this blog... :( Can't wait for for gymnastics updates come Nationals & Worlds!!!
ReplyDeleteCome back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean!
ReplyDeletewv: equaltyl... I thought there was no equaltyl I met you!
Come back Aunt Joyce! I will add my two cents..my freshman girls are starting in the NCAA this fall you have to come back! Enjoy all the stress releasing gossip!
ReplyDeletesooo dying with out u aunt joyce..
ReplyDeletewould even welcome some nastia worship about now.
When will this blog be back? I miss it :(
ReplyDeleteOkay, I've already used Little Sheba and Jimmy Dean... I'm going to have to pull out the big guns: PLAYER!
ReplyDelete"Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you"
Don't make me start singing! Please come back... sniff, sniff...
With the whole flatt thing I thought you would be back. We all knew rach was a nawtee girl.
ReplyDeleteplease please please come back!
ReplyDeleteDarn. I was hoping there'd be a good old fashioned snarkfest here regarding the Rachael Flatt Fine Fiasco. Wherefore art thou AJ? :D
ReplyDelete@Anonymous 5:27 AM I KNEW all that flirty Betty Boop crap was garbage-deep down Rachael is a bad bad girl! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI meant 'And' not 'AM'
ReplyDeleteI was hoping that there would be something about Grandi criticising the code that he created. I thought AJ would have a field day... I miss the snark.
ReplyDeleteStill missing Dave. Hope he comes back. Understand that he needs to do things pursuant to education, etc. , but hope he doesn't give this up entirely. He has unique talents/skills/insights in skatenastics, and it would be a shame if this went fallow and the hard won knowledge isn't later used to his advantage.
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed that people diversify their savings portfolios, but focus on one source of income.
Speaking from experience- you will need MORE than one 'tool in the tool kit' to cut it in the new economy; while figure skating / gymnastics don't seem to be a $ maker, there are ALWAYS opportunities for the very few who are prepared & can then capitalize on it. (While there are many starving artists, NOT ALL starve!)
Luck does come to the prepared mind!- and I hope Dave doesn't let this go by the wayside.
We miss you, Dave!
*Checks hopefully for updates.*
ReplyDeleteAunt Joyce, wherever you are I hope you're doing well, but we miss you!
We do miss Dave!!
ReplyDeletePlease. I'm stuck in my apartment all weekend, a victim of Carmageddon. Please blog, post a favorite. We miss you.
ReplyDeleteSigh- so miss Dave!
ReplyDeleteWonder what he'd say about this:
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/olympic_scheme_an_ice_capade_gmV6wxsTJep2bpqNjdPgmN
Gee- we ALL thought that those were CHARITY events (cough cough cough).....
Nice job, Tara. Real classy.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if any of her clients are going to view this as a rather good time to get the heck out of dodge.
"People make mistakes, and this was a ginormous one." Ooooook....
ReplyDeleteDave-where are you?
ReplyDeleteThis story (Mad Modlin from Thunderdome) SCREAMS for a 'Dave-take' on things- esp. since you HAVE sources!!
PLEASE come back!!!
Please come back for covergirl!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see Dave back!! NOW may we play catch up and discuss the Rachael Flatt Fiasco pretty please? Amongst other picadillos these past few months. :D
