Great shots! I will add some of these to my picture stash fro the screen saver on my office computer and show them off at Transfer Visit Days and other events I use the computer at.

This is my favorite shot.

That takes guts to do that on nothing more than a 4"-6" board. I looked at a great many of those images and I underestimated the pure athleticism which goes into gymnastics. I knew it was tough, but still pictures increase my respect.


Woof. I could never put my ass over my head on purpose.

What always amazes me about the balance beam -

It is always very loud with all of the cheering going on and the music from the floor exercise blaring away. And here you have some young lady making a run up to the beam, she does an awesome flip to mount the beam like it was nothing at all. 8) Yet Tiger Woods gets upset when someone tries to snap his picture while he is on the tee. :twisted:

RUIT:

I've always been impressed by the mixture of strength, agility and grace you find in gymnasts. Many athletes possess one of these attributes, some have portions of two. But very few have three and gymnasts need them all in full measure to truly compete.
