Rebecca Boss choked again. She flubbed her last tumbling pass at the world championships. As Tim Daggett said, "She just needed to avoid the Titanic moment" Sadly she couldn't. Once again, Bridget Sloane was there to fill the hole. As an avid fan of the sport, I've concluded that while Boss may the prettier gymnast, Sloane is the go to girl. Do you agree? if not, why not?

Well I definitely agree that Sloane is more go to rather than the "lead" gymnast for my point of view. However, I do not think that Rebecca Bross is the prettier gymnast, in my opinion, Sloane had the better floor routine in terms of artistry and Bross's was a disaster. She does have huge skills like the Patterson and the layout to double front (!) and her amplitude on the bars is phenomenal, but in order to be a contender she needs to really focus and work on finessing the routines to make them more appealing. Because seriously, her floor routines has almost the same level of beauty as Beth Tweddles :(
