I want to say Simone(AA), Shilese(AA), and Suni(UB, BB)are locks barring tragedy. If Skye(V,BB) preforms as she did at Championships she is 4th, but she has a tendency to fall on beam at international meets. Jordan(V,F) is more consistent and I think will peak at the right time, plus she scores well internationally. Jade(V, F) presentation and execution scores will not help the team although she has the difficulty. I don't think Kayla will make it, she wont be on UB, she wont be on BB, her floor routine internationally will get picked apart, and everybody and their mom has a DTY.

My 2024 Olympic Team Prediction: Simone (AA), Shi (AA), Skye(VT/FL), Suni(UB/BB) and Jordan(AA)/Kayla(AA)/Jade(VT/FL) for the 5th spot. whichever two gymnasts aren't selected for the 5th spot will be traveling alternates/replacement athletes and either Leanne/Kaliya/Hezly will be named non-traveling alternate. Jade with an upgraded floor/vault will consistently score higher than Jo and Kayla internationally on those events and has the added benefit of potentially medaling on vault and floor individually. If the 4 core athletes above are chosen at trials, the only real spot that needs filling is floor/Vault, and with upgrades, I can't justify leaving the reigning Olympic floor champion at home. Olympic Trials will tell all but for me, it's between Jordan and Jade (with upgrades) for that 5th spot. if they want an athlete who can fill in anywhere and go up instead of Skye on FL then Jordan. If they want an athlete who can win a second medal on FL/VT in individual EF and also go up instead of Skye on FL and in addition to Skye on VT then Jade. Realistically, there isn't enough separation between Jordan and Kayla score-wise to justify one over the other, so Jordan is simply my personal preference. Both Jordan and Kayla (separated by 10ths) can step in on any event if needed. Although neither Jordan or Kayla will contend for any individual EF medals I honestly trust them to hit internationally in Quals/TF much more than Skye whos largest advantage at present is her upgraded Cheng vault. if Simone and Shi do AA in Prelims and Skye is only used for VT (so she can contend for a Vault medal), I'm MORE nervous to bring Skye for anything other than vault in TF because her track record for hitting international isn't great. Im much more comfortable knowing they could put Jordan/Kayla in anywhere and Jade on Vault and more importantly Floor in TF.

And Jade is known for her long lines, artistry, and form? I'm not sure why people insist on putting her on this team. With Skye doing a Cheng which is cleaner and higher than Jade's, there is literally no reason for Jade to be on this team. Jordan, Kayla, Kaliya, and Tiana have been consistently outscoring Jade on floor and her bars and beam aren't remotely usable. Back when she and Simone were the only game in town on vault, I could justify putting her on the team, but that's just not the case anymore.

I haven't seen anything from Jade last year or this year that would lead me to believe she could get those scores now. She's getting slaughtered on her artistry on floor and that's why she struggles to hit 14. Even Skye outscored her on floor on day 2 at Nationals. Upgrading her difficulty isn't going to help much if she can't do it cleanly with few deductions. She also has the added disadvantage of being completely unusable on bars and beam. Even if you assume Jade will score better internationally on floor than she does domestically, she's still not going move the needle on the team score much more than Jordan would and Jordan is someone you could throw into the bar rotation if you had to do so. Personally, I'd love to see USA Gymnastics just go balls to the wall and take Kaliya Lincoln in that 5th spot to really blow everyone away with our team floor total. Of course, that puts you at a disadvantage by not having an athlete you could throw onto any apparatus if catastrophe strikes, but it would be a fun decision and would really spice things up.

@aprile520911 сағат бұрын
I would put Suni up on beam instead of Skye. She can outscore her there. And there's no reason to put Jade on this team. Jordan, Kayla, Kaliya, and Tiana all outscore Jade on floor. If you're looking to get a third huge score on floor at the expense of depth, take Kaliya. That would get you the highest possible team score. If you want to make sure you have depth in the off chance catastrophe hits (a la Tokyo 2021 and Antwerp 2023), take Jordan (who I feel can put together a higher score across four events than Kayla). At most, I'd take Jade as a traveling alternate, but would be more apt to make her one of the non-traveling alternates in leiu of Kayla and Leanne.
@cp8266764 күн бұрын
Jade would make the fifth spot on the team with Simone, Shi, Skye, and Suni. Her upgrades will out score on floor over Jordan and Kaliyah and Kayla. Plus Jade would definitely out score everyone but Simone on vault. Maybe Skye may or may not beat Jade on vault but no one else
@aprile520911 сағат бұрын
I disagree. Jade is getting slaughtered on artistry on floor. I think upgraded tumbling may add a few tenths to her score, but I don't see her outscoring Jordan and definitely not Kaliya on floor. Especially given that her form tends to be worse the more difficulty she has. If we could ensure absolutely no one would get injured, I'd go with Kaliya since she's on all the highest scoring teams. Given the U.S.'s recent track record of freak injuries at world competitions though, I'd go with the safer option of Jordan. I really just don't see Jade fitting onto to this team anywhere given Skye's Cheng and better floor performers. She also has the disadvantage of being completely unusable on bars and beam. Now, if she came to trials with a really nice Amanar along with her Cheng and was scoring significantly higher on it than others with clean and stuck DTYs are scoring, then the conversation changes.
I wouldn't put Jade on this team. Her vault would be the only place she could contribute, and even there a good, clean, stuck DTY will score nearly as well as her Cheng (she incurs a ton of deductions on that thing). As for her floor, both Jordan and Kayla scored higher at Nationals, and Kaliya's floor also scores higher. Her bars and beam aren't usable at all. I could've seen the case to take her prior to Nationals, but now, with Skye doing a better, cleaner Cheng, Jade really doesn't add anything anymore.

Bars: Suni, Shi, Simone (Skye can fill in), Beam: Suni, Simone, Shi/Skye, Floor: Simone, Shi, and neither Skye nor Suni score high enough to be used on a three up three count... this is truly the only place where we need someone and thats where Kaliya could come and sneak onto the team.

I would not pick Jordan Chiles for the team for 4 reasons: 1) Chiles doesn't have the long lines. 2)The international judges don't like her artistry in her floor routine. 3)her falling twice at the latest competition. 4) terrible performance at Tokyo Olympics
And Jade is known for her long lines, artistry, and form? I'm not sure why people insist on putting her on this team. With Skye doing a Cheng which is cleaner and higher than Jade's, there is literally no reason for Jade to be on this team. Jordan, Kayla, Kaliya, and Tiana have been consistently outscoring Jade on floor and her bars and beam aren't remotely usable. Back when she and Simone were the only game in town on vault, I could justify putting her on the team, but that's just not the case anymore.
I want Kayla to make the team so bad. I know there’s a slim chance but I’m rooting for her
Simone and the rest of the team.
Simone, Skye, Shilese, Jordan & the last spot would be between Jade or Suni or Kayla
i really prefer jordan to kayla, but its hard to say which one would make the team. i dont really think jade will score well internationally anymore since the code is so different this quad, so i dont see her making the 5 person team at all. Apart from the obvious AA choices, it makes sense to bring skye for beam medal potential, and jordan because she can outscore kayla on floor and vault tbh if she ended up upgrading. and she's got a solid bars routine too
Jade scored 14.100 on Floor and 14.800 on Vault at Worlds this quad. I’m pretty sure she will score well internationally
@@gymnasticfan9148 not with that new floor choreo
I haven't seen anything from Jade last year or this year that would lead me to believe she could get those scores now. She's getting slaughtered on her artistry on floor and that's why she struggles to hit 14. Even Skye outscored her on floor on day 2 at Nationals. Upgrading her difficulty isn't going to help much if she can't do it cleanly with few deductions. She also has the added disadvantage of being completely unusable on bars and beam. Even if you assume Jade will score better internationally on floor than she does domestically, she's still not going move the needle on the team score much more than Jordan would and Jordan is someone you could throw into the bar rotation if you had to do so. Personally, I'd love to see USA Gymnastics just go balls to the wall and take Kaliya Lincoln in that 5th spot to really blow everyone away with our team floor total. Of course, that puts you at a disadvantage by not having an athlete you could throw onto any apparatus if catastrophe strikes, but it would be a fun decision and would really spice things up.
What about Kaliya Lincoln?? I think she actually comprises the highest scoring team at this point. Hopefully she is healthy soon!
Jordan scored higher than her on Floor this year, but she still has a chance if can hit 14+ on Floor at Trials
@@gymnasticfan9148 Cool! I'm just looking at the Washington Post calculator. It says that Jordan's highest score is a 14.1 and Kaliya's is a 14.233. I'm not sure where they get their numbers from, if they are 100% accurate, or even if a number could have come from a previous year . . . Thanks for sharing your great content!
@@evan-dunn This 14.233 was from Pan Ams last year
Didn’t Kaliya get injured at nationals?
@@maddiegoldfeld6819 Yes, but she petitioned to trials. Hopefully her injury isn't too severe. But she is also so young and could keep going if she wanted to!
And that is why this is my team 💅🏻 I can’t get over Jordan’s floor. That girl’s artistry is so fun to watch. She dances and expresses during her routine better than anyone in the country
Simone. Jordan. Shilese. Skye. Suni or Jade.
defo suni jade is only top 3 in vault i think if they all stay consistent simone suni shilese jordan skye i think kayla would be an alternate ik she did good at the winter classics but not really anyone was there simone wasnt there jordan shilese suni so i dont really take that into consideration
I fear Kayla may have peaked a little to early.
Oh World, don’t make that face.
Tbh there are gymnast that can score higher then jade on her main events so I don’t think they need her
Simone, Shilese, Skye, Suni, Jade
Black girl magic
Racist woman comment magic. 🤗
My prediction: Simone Skye Shilese Bars: Suni Floor: Jade
I would put Suni up on beam instead of Skye. She can outscore her there. And there's no reason to put Jade on this team. Jordan, Kayla, Kaliya, and Tiana all outscore Jade on floor. If you're looking to get a third huge score on floor at the expense of depth, take Kaliya. That would get you the highest possible team score. If you want to make sure you have depth in the off chance catastrophe hits (a la Tokyo 2021 and Antwerp 2023), take Jordan (who I feel can put together a higher score across four events than Kayla). At most, I'd take Jade as a traveling alternate, but would be more apt to make her one of the non-traveling alternates in leiu of Kayla and Leanne.
Jade would make the fifth spot on the team with Simone, Shi, Skye, and Suni. Her upgrades will out score on floor over Jordan and Kaliyah and Kayla. Plus Jade would definitely out score everyone but Simone on vault. Maybe Skye may or may not beat Jade on vault but no one else
I disagree. Jade is getting slaughtered on artistry on floor. I think upgraded tumbling may add a few tenths to her score, but I don't see her outscoring Jordan and definitely not Kaliya on floor. Especially given that her form tends to be worse the more difficulty she has. If we could ensure absolutely no one would get injured, I'd go with Kaliya since she's on all the highest scoring teams. Given the U.S.'s recent track record of freak injuries at world competitions though, I'd go with the safer option of Jordan. I really just don't see Jade fitting onto to this team anywhere given Skye's Cheng and better floor performers. She also has the disadvantage of being completely unusable on bars and beam. Now, if she came to trials with a really nice Amanar along with her Cheng and was scoring significantly higher on it than others with clean and stuck DTYs are scoring, then the conversation changes.
Simone, Shilese, Skye, Suni, Jade Alt: Jordan, Leanne, Kayla, Tiana/Josc VT: Skye, Jade, Simone (All Chengs) UB: Skye/Simone, Suni, Shilese BB: Shilese, Suni, Simone FX: Skye/Shi, Jade, Simone
I wouldn't put Jade on this team. Her vault would be the only place she could contribute, and even there a good, clean, stuck DTY will score nearly as well as her Cheng (she incurs a ton of deductions on that thing). As for her floor, both Jordan and Kayla scored higher at Nationals, and Kaliya's floor also scores higher. Her bars and beam aren't usable at all. I could've seen the case to take her prior to Nationals, but now, with Skye doing a better, cleaner Cheng, Jade really doesn't add anything anymore.
I think it's going to come down to difficulty, consistency, and ability to overcome challenges honestly. Everyone knows Simone and Shilese are lock ins, of course, but in my opinion it will end up being Suni, Skye, and either Kayla or Jordan...Kayla has had better routines
for me, leanne isn't even an alternate
It really all comes down to consistency at trials and who’s gonna score the highest on floor. This’ll be interesting!
Haven't seen how Kaliya's been scoring recently but she really could have a shot. Think about highest scoring potential/medal potential... Vault: Shi, Simone, Skye have us covered and the four in the running for my last spot all have at least solid DTY. Bars: Suni, Shi, Simone (Skye can fill in), Beam: Suni, Simone, Shi/Skye, Floor: Simone, Shi, and neither Skye nor Suni score high enough to be used on a three up three count... this is truly the only place where we need someone and thats where Kaliya could come and sneak onto the team.
I wouldn't. Although she is clean and has good landings, she is also unstable. USA is aiming for something similar to Rio 2016, so they should their very best (Biles, Shilese, Skye, Suni and Carey)
Jade won't be on the team. This team is going to be picked based on race, not performance. Jade will be alternate. Chiles should be no where on this team. She rocked nationals and will rock trials but will bomb in Paris. Just like she did in Tokyo and Liverpool.
I don’t want Jordan on this team! She balked in Tokyo big time!
Yeah, most of the White gymnasts out performed all the non-White ones, including Biles, throughout all the domestic and international competitions the last 2-3 years; but only the inferior ones, the non-Whites, have been consistently picked. Perfect presentation of MAGA Alternate Reality.
LMAOOOOO BURN
The team went into the Olympics qualifying second with Simone. They lost by 3.5 points. Even if Jordan wouldn’t have fallen, the US still would have taken silver. She did an amazing job stepping up last minute. Can you imagine how hard it must of been trying to hold on to the silver medal spot WITHOUT Simone’s help? My gosh so judgmental
Race has nothing to do with it. Why didn’t we hear that when Shannon Miller, and Kim Zmeskal were the leaders of the team and Dominique Dawes was the only one on the team who wasn’t White? Didn’t hear anything about race! The ones who are the best will be on the team!
Simone and Shilese are locked in. Other 3 spots will be a battle of consistency on Trials for Suni, Skye, Jordan, Kayla. Still hoping to see Jade on full power.
No one is "locked in." Not even the greatest of them all, Biles. All who qualified for the Olympic trials will have to go through them, in MN. If, for some odd/ailment reasons, Biles did really badly on 2-3 main events, she wouldn't be picked. Ditto for all others, too, of course... But if everyone performed roughly 95% or so on every event (not falls, etc), doing their very most difficulty routines, then, yes, no one is going to beat Biles' AVERAGE...
I disagree. If for some freakish reason Simone performed terribly at trials or suffered an injury/illness, they would still put her on this team (provided she would be healthy by the Olympics). She's just to dominant and has proven herself to much in the past for them not to do it. Short of a season ending injury, she is on this team. I feel the same can be said for Shilese.
Simone, Suni, Shi, Skye, and Jade. Jordan alt.
Probably 3 returning Olympians and 2 first time Olympians. With the exception of Blies I would have liked to see new girls get a shot but it is what it is.
Jordan vai afundar a equipe igual fez em Tokyo então vai Dicello
Agree. She's all fluff and feathers. She'll bomb in Paris like she did in Tokyo and Liverpool.
Nossa, não acho que ela afundou o time não. Com a saída da Simone ela e a Grace foram obrigadas a fazer todos os parelhos, se saíram muito bem até, eu achei que depois do que aconteceu todo mundo ia cair várias vezes. Só houve 1 queda da Jordan no solo que não mudou nada, elas perderam por 3,5 pontos, mesmo se não caísse elas ficavam com a prata. Elas já tinham se classificado em 2 com a Simone, imagina sem.
@@gymnasticfan9148AMAZING POINT! Jordan didn’t stop a thing
Prefiro a Dicello no lugar da Jordan
