13 New Routines You Must See from Jesolo Training


Podium training has concluded in Jesolo and it's certainly lived up to the hype. Gymnastike covered three full days of training sessions with Team USA. Friday's sessions were attended by every team competing this weekend including the host team of Italy and the the stellar group of Romanian juniors. Team USA defnitely stood out with the highest number of hit routines and most difficult skills. 

Now that we've uploaded more routines than we can count, here's our attempt to rank them. Below is our countdown of the 13 new routines you must watch from 2014 Jesolo podium training. 

#13 Kyla Ross, USA, Bars
There's a calming quality to watching Kyla Ross swing bars. Her long lines are just beautiful on this event, and this routine in particular is especially impressive with the way she floated up to every hit handstand. Watch here.

#12 Nia Dennis, USA, Beam
This routine is all about amplitude! She has what is possibly the best standing arabian in the world and flies through her leaps and jumps. Watch here.

It's also worth mentioning Nia's bars where she absolutely flies! Watch here.

#11 Mykayla Skinner, USA, Vault
On day 3 of training, Skinner vaulted the best Amanar we've seen her do! She looks ready to take the meet's vault title, along with her Cheng vault. Watch her Amanar.

#10 Rachel Gowey, USA, Floor
Gowey has proven why she earned a place on the U.S. Senior National team this week in training! Her new floor routine is breathtaking and really accents her long lines. Plus, she has some new tumbling! Watch here.

#9 Laura Jurca, Romania, Beam
Tiny Laura Jurca captured our hearts today with quirky beam choreogrpahy and huge skills on beam! Watch here and you'll fall in love with her too!

#8 Mykayla Skinner, USA, Floor
We will never understand how Mykayla Skinner manages to throw TWO double doubles and a double arabian in the same routine! The tumbling in this routine is downright impressive, and you can even see an improvement in her leaps and dance since last summer. Watch here.

#7 Bailie Key, USA, Beam
The reigning U.S. Junior National Champion was already one of the best in the World on beam, and she's pulled even more tricks out for 2014! Watch her upgraded routine here.

#6 Kiara Munteanu, Australia, Bars
First year senior Kiara Munteanu of Australia surprised us with a rarely seen tkatchev+gienger combo on bars and a really nice routine from start to finish! Watch here.

#5 Madison Kocian, USA, Bars
Madison proves to be one of the favorites for the bar title in Jesolo with this huge routine. Watch here. Kocian's brand new floor routine is also worth watching! Watch Kocian's bars here.

#4 Andreea Iridon, Romania, Bars
Little Andreea Iridon is Romania's next great hope on uneven bars. The Romanians are historically weak on this event, but Iridon swings with ease and cleanly executed two difficult releases! Watch here.

#3 Maggie Nichols, USA, Beam
Maggie Nichols unveiled a big, new beam routine and during the second training session on day 2 she absolutely nailed it! Her new Barani is near-perfect, and she didn't have a single wobble throughout the routine. Wow! Watch here.

#2 Bailie Key, USA, Floor
Key showed up to Jesolo with a new floor routine and fans are loving it! It's a big departure from her cutesy routines in the past. Watch here

#1 Norah Flatley, USA, Beam
USA's most anticipated international debut will come when tiny junior Norah Flatley of Chow's takes to the beam. Flatley has already created a worldwide following for her incredible skill and poise on beam. Watch her training routine from day 1 here. Watch day 2 beam here.
