cuz gymnastics is cool!!

I actually took a sports-ability test and my balance was higher than an elite snowboarder's. It said I would be good at speed skating, snowboarding, surfing, and squash.

Cool! Lots of gymnasts do diving and pole vaulting and vaulting (on a horse!) too! The flying in the air in gymnastics helps for sure!
