Megan Mashburn: 26 Videos

2010_02_26: Kentucky:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition:):

Pike 1/2 - good block off the table, definitely better form in the air during twisting, but again head and chest down on landing, step as well.

2010_02_19: Arizona:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.750:

Pike 1/2 - one foot step to the right on landing, chest down – less leg separation in the air this week. Block off the table improved as well.

2010_02_05: LSU:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition:9.650):

Front double pike - sticks it - knees bent, limited distance from the table. Excellent effort.

2010_01_30: PennState,Minnesota:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.675:

Front pike - step back to control the landing - only worth 9.90 but she stood it up very well when called upon to vault at the last minute in place of Ashley Sledge.

2009_03_13: Oklahoma:
bars: Megan Mashburn: 9.775:

Boy did Megan attack this bars routine - free hip giant to handstand - Tkatchev - bail to handstand on the low bar - stuck the Comaneci dismount.  She was then attacked enmasse by her teammates and hugged fiercely with pride and cheers of congratulations.  What a great scene of jubilation.  One imagines the team looking euphoric like this if they had just won the national chamiponship.

2009_03_13: Oklahoma:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.825:

Pike 1/2 - better form and position in the air - chest up more this week but still needs work - one step to the right on landing. 

2009_03_06: Stanford:
bars: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.475):

Exhibited on bars - Tkatchev - stands up her Comaneci dismount very well (step on landing). Score extra low because she unfortunately missed all of her handstands throughout this routine but we like the way she attacked the bars this week - the start value was lower due to the easier dismount too.  

2009_03_06: Stanford:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition:9.700):

Completed the pike 1/2 twist in exhibition - chest down and one step to the right.

2009_03_01: Penn St:
bars: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition:9.475):

Exhibited her routine - Tkatchev, free hip giant to handstand, but had to hop off after the bail to handstand on the low bar over-arched - finished with a Comaneci dismount - chest down - hop forward.  Love her work ethic in the gym and on the competition floor.

2009_02_27: Auburn:
vault: Megan Mashburn: Exhibition: 9.650):

Pike 1/2  - problems again with landing it chest down and a step forward.  Not much distance from the table also results in a deduction.

2009_02_20: Florida:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.850):

Pike 1/2 - chest was down, step to the side as well but form overall has improved.

2009_02_13: LSU:
floor: Megan Mashburn: 9.450:

Opened with a 2 1/2 to punch tuck - just stepped out of bounds but also clearly was off-direction relative to the corner as a result; came right back with a double pike - strong landing - closed with a round off to a double twist - good landing. Not sure why they scored it that low despite the obvious problems on that opening pass.   Kudos to Megan for completing her routine well after she encountered that initial trouble.

2009_02_13: LSU:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.725:

Pike 1/2 - step on the landing - chest down a bit and limited distance from the table. 

2009_02_06: Denver:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.825:

Pike 1/2 - nails the landing but with chest down a bit - rotation was much better in the air this week along with her form (legs together).  

2009_01_30: Arkansas:
floor: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.650):

Opened with a nice 2 1/2 to punch tuck - comes right back with a solid double pike - one arm handstand in straddle position - closes out with a double twist - legs split in the air a bit. Megan executed this routine confidently.  Score was not available.

2009_01_30: Arkansas:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.675:

Pike 1/2, large right foot step back but form showed improvement.

2009_01_23: Georgia:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.675:

Pike 1/2 - deducted for leg split in the air, a little late twisting and jammed the landing a bit but executed it with more confidence this week.

2009_01_16: Kentucky:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.750:

Completes a pike 1/2 vault, chest down, legs split a bit during launch.

2009_01_09: Auburn:
vault: Megan Mashburn: 9.750:

Pike 1/2 - good power run and blocking but her chest was down a bit after twisting and landing this vault.  

2008_03_21: Auburn:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.800):

Pike 1/2 twist - one step - she is getting better each week with this vault.

2008_03_14: Penn State:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.750):

A really solid pike 1/2 - well-centered vault - form good in the air and she spotted the landing much better, one small step only.

2008_03_07: Stanford:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.700):

Pike 1/2 - chest down and step to the side on landing.

2008_02_29: Florida:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.750):


2008_02_22: LSU:
floor: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.800):

Good effort for her first floor routine.  Double pike to open - front-front full to front tuck - bounded forward several steps out of the third element but stood it up - finished with a double twist.  Music is really a good match - just needs to polish up her choreo and dance elements.

2008_02_22: LSU:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition: 9.800):


2008_02_08: Arkansas:
vault: Megan Mashburn: (Exhibition:9.600):

pike ½ twist (landed chest down, step to the side)
