Skill News

Jillian is excited to be gaining some new skills here in the middle of meet season. Last night she did her clear hip to handstand on bars all by herself. She is looking forward to adding that to her bar routine at the next meet.

She also has improved her tsuk (vault) and can land it in the pit on her feet. By next year it should be really awesome!

And last, but not least, she is getting to start working on double backs into the pit. It doesn't seem to be too hard for her. She does round off, back handspring, on the floor.....followed by the double back into the pit.

Hey! Just wanted to poke my head in here and thank you for visiting my blog. How on earth did you find it, and when?

I did leave a reply to the comment you left, in that one post. To remember what I wrote, yes all of my editing is done through Windows Movie Maker. If you use your imagination and play around with the different features, you can combine and create some special effects probably not thought of. For a free feature in your windows package, it really isn't that bad. So good luck, and let me know when and if you start posting some vids up. I'd love to see them. Part of the reason why most of mine are music vids is because I use a digital camera that only takes 10 to 20 second video clips. So the normal recorded sound wouldn't work too well, because it gets cut off.

I'll link to your blog, and come back to visit now and then. Take care!
