I just like knowing who wins.. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246608 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 06:30:29 +0000 MamaMoose 246608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think there is a need for it because it gives the girls a chance to catch their breath and get themselves together between the gymnastics moves. They wouldn't be able to just do flip after flip after flip without a break. But I agree they should be more attractive moves! Perhaps just bringing better choreographers to the sport would help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246595 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 05:37:52 +0000 MsLipGloss 246595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate it the most on beam . . . although it can look pretty great when someone like Viktoria Komova does them, and really terrible when someone like Aly Reisman does them. Talk about a stark contrast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246539 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 23:41:12 +0000 brownie 246539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that the dance is terrible. I don't want it to go away though. I think it would be better if dance was as important as the tumbling. Let's teach them to be beautiful </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246502 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:53:36 +0000 immabeetoo 246502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said the same thing - why do they make them prance around instead of flip, which is what we want to see! It looks so weird and out of place for them to go from a killer flip sequence to flapping their hands around and rolling on the ground! (granted, in a much more elegant and poised way than I ever could). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246469 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:28:20 +0000 jackieomy 246469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think they should adopt the style of men's floor routine -- lots of passes with awesome tumbling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246451 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:20:08 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 246451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah it does look so ridiculous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-pseudo-dance-moves-in-the-floor-routines-are-so-weird#post-246446 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 22:18:15 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 246446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>now that women's gymnastics is full of such powerhouse moves by such powerful young women, i wish they'd get rid of those silly "dance" moves in the floor routines.</p> <p>i swear, at one point, gabby douglas does the macarena in her routine. </p>
