Isy up at 5.02

eh. A miss. She goes wide right and hits it on the way up. Not a great takeoff.

How close was she to missing the pad on landing?

How close was she to missing the pad on landing?

I didn't notice. They are pretty big pits.

[BruceFlorman]

Well that one looked better to me!

C'mon Isi! You can do this!

[rainbowgirl28]

2nd attempt miss for Isy. Looked like a better jump. She came down on the bar.

[rainbowgirl28]

Isy up for her third attempt.

Another miss!

Solid atttempt, but she definitely hasn't been putting the height on bars like she did last year.

[BruceFlorman]

Arrrrrrg!

Edit: Well at least the kids still want her autograph.

Edit #2: Say what you want about her cent-by-cent record approach last year, she was getting a lot more face time, and a lot more ink when she was cranking them out every couple of weeks.
