1:40 pm. Chrysette Diggs BB: Good on the bhs loso. Front aerial to jump series went well. Powerful punch front but then went awry on the landing. Switch to switch half looked a bit short on the latter. Hit the dismount. 11.650
1:38 pm. Anslee McCauley FX: Came up short on the landing on her first pass, big lunge back. 1.5 through to double tuck, she crashed that. Front tuck through to 2.5, sat it unfortunately. Rough set. 8.950

1:33 pm. Amariah Moore FX: Clean double wolf turn. Front tuck through to double tuck, good. Hit the last pass. 12.150
Kylie Smith UB: Stalder half to front giant to straddle Jaeger, nice. Stalder full, a bit weak, to Pak, toe-on to van Leeuwen, twist was way off but she caught no problem, stalder, giants to dismount, full-twisting double layout, looked close to stuck! 13.600
Sage Stiggers BB: Break at the hips on her acro series but saved it. Front aerial, slow to the jump, but got that to the back handspring, wobble. Side aerial, full turn, double tuck, deep, knee may have touched the mat but I’m not sure. 10.900
1:30 pm. Carla Fronc VT: Good Yurchenko full, step back. 12.900
Eva Doherty UB: Stalder full was a bit rushed and messy, got it to the Maloney to Pak but got stuck in the Pak and had to start her swing again, toe-on to van Leeuwen, stalder half to a release I think, I couldn’t see but she fell on that. Back on for the giants to dismount, a double layout, some foot form and a step. 11.550
Sofie Davtyan BB: Double wolf turn, wobbled at the end. GORGEOUS jumps, her straddle is very extra. Switch to switch half, lovely. Hit the dismount. I missed some of this but she was lovely when I watched her. 12.950
