Postcards From Camp

Finnegan shows what Armine taught her during physical abilities testing.

USAG Posted that Shawn, Nastia and Chellsie weren't at camp due to their inability to show two complete sets.  It is interesting that Alicia is there, as she isn't back to complete form.  There are those who risk going to camp out of tip-top form to be compliant and those like Sloan who go whenever because they're known for peaking at the last moment.  The three veterans were always consistent at camp in their heyday and were used to finishing at the top of the rankings.  Expect them to show a few routines at Classics and or Nationals, regardless of motivations.  It will be curious to see which strategy pays off.

Anna Li is looking fitter than ever.  In fact, Anna looks fitter than 2009 World Champion Bridget Sloan, who is rumored to have upgrades on bars and floor.  It remains curious what Sloan can actually do, but she is known for pulling the rabbit out of the hat and winning unexpected titles.

The Lineup

I'm sure Sloan is thrilled about this 'oh-so-flattering' photo.

It is interesting that  (just like her gymnastics) despite Ross showing gorgeous leg, one's eye is drawn to Anna Li's physique.

Like, omigod

Note that Skinner doesn't have a prayer of attaining the proper position.
