2/2/14 Elk Grove Meet

We traveled to Elk Grove for the Mas Watanabe Invitational hosted by Byer's Gymnastics.  
Tyler had another good meet, bettering some of his scores and posting another 50 point all-around score. 

Waiting to hit the floor for warm-ups....

Leading warm-ups....
 These two are almost exactly the same height, so there was a quick game of Ro-Sham-Bo to decide who stood where for introductions. 

 Floor was a bit shaky, not the best event for these boys to start on. 
 Tyler did very well on his mushroom routine this weekend, very proud that he nailed his 1 1/2 circle and didn't have to take a fall deduction.
 He had a rough week with his hands, so Coach John made him some grips out of tape to protect his rips until they heal. 

 He walked away with 3 event medals and plus an AA medal, a first for him to place and have his name called.  He was a bit shocked! So proud of him.
 The Technique twins tied on parallel bars for 8th place. 
 Ty rode home with Grandma & Grandpa so he didn't have to go to soccer try-outs.  They said he made quite a bit of jingling sounds the whole way! 

Here is his video.  The gym was a bit spread out, so you can almost see his vault.  


Next meet is on Feb 16th at home!
