US Men's Gymnastics: Tokyo Quad

Since a very small minority of us here follow MAG to any extent, I've created a new thread for the US men's program as it continues the new Olympic cycle and deals with many issues of its own separate from the women's program. Feel free to use this thread to post anything about the men's program. I'm sure the US WAG fans will appreciate it lol.

Desperately Seeking 2 Skating Books

Hi Everyone,
I'm desperately trying to locate 2 figure skating books for my niece that our library no longer carries. I can't recall the titles.

The first is a hardcover, presumably adult nonfiction, almost an inch thick with a yellow dust jacket and about the size of a coffee table book if I remember correctly. It features extensive chapters on reel-to-reel music editing and choreography among other things and I think there was a chapter on patch sessions too.

The second is a children's nonfiction, slightly longer than the usual "picture nonfiction"
books for kids. IT's from the 70's or early 80's and is the story of an aspiring young skater named Karen and her younger sister Wendy. The cover photo was Karen in a pale blue skating dress and there are lots of photos inside. Also on the inside covers are several diagrams of various school figures.

If anyone can help me by posting the titles or authors of these books I would really appreciate being able to surprise my niece!

Thank you so much!

USA gymnasts appreciation thread, 2018 where do we go from here?

So who is in the running for the 2nd AmCup spot? Who do we think is going to show up for verification and spots in the World Cup Comps?

Regarding the upcoming world cup selections, I'm not even sure who's training at this point and who's not... or rather who's in peak shape.

All the newly turned seniors should make things VERY interesting this year. Also, do we know the status of previously injured gymnasts? Such as Riley McCusker, etc...

We do know Hurd was announced as the first US spot for the American cup... also that Chiles was announced for the Stuttgart cup... are these two the only confirmed gymnasts thus far? I suppose we won't know much more until after the verification meet at LSU.

Lifetime Movie - The Simone Biles Story

To turn things more light and fluffy, did anyone catch the movie tonight? If yes, did you learn anything new? Was it good? And most importantly, is there anywhere else I can watch it since I was out and missed it?

Who Would You Like as the New NTC?

When Rhonda was offered her current position, I was hoping it would be her. Since then, it has come out that she has no interest in the position. The people I would like in the position are gym owners (except Alexandrov). I think he would do well in the position for one and the thought of what it would do to the Rottenenkos!!!

I don’t see anyone in NCAA qualified for it.

Tom Forster owns Aerials but he doesn’t have any major elites currently.

Melbourne world cup, February 22 - 25

There will be a meet and greet with Aly Raisman, aawwww... that's cool! Probably due in part to Brestyan having a contract with the Ozzie fed up until April, IIRC.

So the Ozzie girls will represent: Godwin, Mizzen, Nedov, Brown which is awesome and all... but hello it's the international senior debut of Chen Yile! Yay!! (UB + BB). Also on the nominative registration: Liu Jinru VT, Du Siyu UB, Li Qi BB... Yay!!!!

Help ID'ing Floor Music

Could someone please tell me if they know the titles of these four pieces of floor music?

1. Jaycie Phelps, 1994: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSERMGR6mOk
It sounds like it might have been a film soundtrack of some sort?

2. Amanda Borden, 1997 Ladies Pro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx29Crmwinc

It sounds like two pieces, including a really cool techno piece. I'd love to know both, but especially the techno. I believe she also used it at a 1996 invitational (Budget?)

3. Dominique Moceanu, 1997 Battle Of Sexes FX. I can't find a video of just her but again, it's a really cool techno piece. She also used it on tour that year.

Thanks in advance. I really love all of these (ESPECIALLY Jaycie's!) and want to get the original pieces for my Ipod.

Who Are These Gymnasts?

I was watching a montage (but can't remember the title) and it featured some Romanian girls I've never heard of before from between 2004-2006: Bibiana Ostoc, Catalina Dumitrescu, & Alina Munteanu. Does anyone know these girls' DOBs & clubs as well as anything else about them?

Thanks in advance.
