Savannah competed in her first tumbling meet January 23. She placed 7th in floor and...1st place on the trampoline!! Yea!! She is officially hooked on tumbling and was totally stoked. She called everyone she knows after the meet and clanked her medals together for them.
Here is a video of her competing on the trampoline...she did a great job, especially for her first meet, and we'll have to post more as she has several more meets this spring. (I apologize for the shaky video--Jessy was watching her, not the camera, since the first maneuver--the dreaded peanut roll--is tough and once you make a mistake, you are no longer scored.)
This video is of the first pass on the tumbling track. It was a roundoff and two back handsprings. The second pass was a running roundoff and four back handsprings, and since it was only her second time doing it, it wasn't perfect, but she did pull it off. She said we can upload a video of that from a different meet when she's more prepared.
We're so proud of her!!
