Episode 133: Interview Katelyn Ohashi Commits to UCLA - a podcast by gymcastic@gmail.com

 

She is the gymnastics equivalent of panda cubs playing in snow for the first time, combined with the feeling you got when Nastia did a pirouette on bars; the perfect gymnastics happiness pill. The 2013 American Cup all-around champion, Katelyn Ohashi, has committed to UCLA and we have the exclusive interview just hours after she announced her decision to her future teammates. We discuss:

• The candlelit moment when she told the team


• Why she chose UCLA and when she will start


• The status of her return to bars and what skills she's working on


• Surprising her coach by busting out crazy dismounts


• The look on her face after her second pass on floor at Texas Prime last weekend


• What she thinks of the Tumblr posts you make about her


• Switching from coach Valeri Luikin to Laurent Landi


• If she knows that the gymternet is obsessed with Laurent

• Episode 23: Lloimincia Hall & The American Cup


• Episode 33: Simone Biles & Her Coaches


• Episode 39: Victoria Moors


• 61: Katelyn Ohashi Clears The Air
