 The fact that point is still undecided leads me away from thinking Maddie will get it. They have watched her dancing next to point for 2 years now, seems like they would know or not already if it was going to be her.

Not with this group of girls.  The rookies from last year brought their game.  Some of the vets have improved including Maddie.  I would say it's a hard decision to make - and I'm saying that based on what I've seen while sitting on my couch😂

 When doing a jump split, you are supposed to stay in a split for as long as possible, land in a wide "V" (on the lateral edge of your front foot), and then slide the last little bit into a split on the ground. Miranda is not pushing on Cianna...if she were pushing down, Amy would be affected too.  They all hit their "peak" around the same time.  Cianna brings her front leg down earlier (and bent), lands flat on her foot, which forces her knee to bend more and prevents her from sliding easily into a split.  It wasn't Miranda's fault, Cianna just landed wrong.

I'd love to see Caroline or Bridget at point.  Shake things up putting a 2nd year vet up front.  Especially if they have the sparkle and dance chops to carry it.

Regardless, as I stated above, IMO, it's not a good pairing.  Cianna is a good dancer.  Miranda for me is not as strong; more bleh.  I do understand the mechanics of a jump split.  I do see what happened with Cianna.  Just saying it's possible Miranda didn't help. 🤷‍♀️

My post wasn't directed towards you (that's why I didn't quote it)...  Yes, it's not a great pairing but when the video was initially posted, several people immediately jumped on the bandwagon that Miranda caused it.  I was just adding my 2 cents.

I understand.  It's weird b/c when the post first appeared all I saw was everyone bashing Cianna (why I'm sticking up for her, lol).  I have watched this over and over frame by frame.  I think it was an unfortunate series of events and nothing bad intended towards you.  My apologies if it came off that way! 😘

I looked at the photo from last year and all rookies are in the last 3 rows.  The rookies in SG are spread throughout rows 4-6.

Rookies in SG do get a better position in the triangle.  I think that is so they are in a similar formation to what a SG only triangle would be.

Ah yes, the Slender man arm picture. I hope they have a better squad picture this year.

I'm dying to see where VK lands in the squad photo.  Typically (but not always), the rookies fill in the back two rows.  Some years, however, a rookie is brought up front -- I have a feeling this will be one of those years.

In 2007 rookies Abigail and Loni got to be in the front row.

3 is on Amazon.  Someone said in another thread that all seasons will be included with Prime shortly.  Of course, no 1 and 2.  And of course it's important!!  Just drives me crazy to be missing seasons in a TV show:)

Once I saw it I was never able to to unsee it...so I pointed it out to as many people as possible so you all could join me in never unseeing it ;).  Here’s to hoping to better attention to details this year.

Caroline? (Could be anyone you see in a mall.)

Bridget? ( maturity sophistication of a high school junior) great sweet wonderful job she has though 

Prettiest and or BEST dancer or most marketable should be point.

Point is so interesting this year...Amy is too tall, Maddie is not a typical beauty they have upfront, and Heather is so Vanilla....could they go with an underdog this year? Caroline has my vote!

Heather...vanilla?? What? She’s stunning. 

Although I’m personally “Amy for Point”, Heather is so gorgeous, she’d be great. I just think Amy would be a fun to watch, bubbly point.

If you MUST do these types of videos, at least blur out the poor women's faces. I'm sure at least some of these women it was just a bucket list/I'm going to audition for the DCC just because I can thing; knowing full well they had no chance or dream of making the team. No need to humiliate them for it.

well I suppose that's one way to make sure that less than hundred girls turn out for the first round of auditions next year.....

Have they usually announced/decided by this time (when deciding on a new point)? The year of the Jenna snafu, Jenna danced point at Oxnard and it was assumed she would be point, but nothing "official" had been decided or announced.

I think it's more likely what someone else has said, K & J know who will be point (barring any snafus), but haven't made anything official -- so the official DCC line is that it hasn't been decided yet.

It was Cassie.  They were trying to get her to drop her top knee over like Whitney, but she wasn’t getting it.

I think the census here is that Bridget and Caroline are 2 of the prettiest and best dancers. Who do you think fits this role then? I’m not really sure we have a true contender among the senior vets (while I’m a #heatherforpoint advocate).

That's a quote from Kelli in that season about how Loni got into TC.  She caught the interest of someone in the Cowboys organization but pretty might not be enough to get her on the team.  She never said who it was.  Maybe someone here knows ore but there wasn't a huge fan base yet back then.

Oh, ok.   Darn, I thought maybe she had caught the attention of Jerry at a gentlemen's club while he was shoving dollar bills into her thigh highs or something!

I just don’t get this. It’s mean and not funny. I thought K&J were better than that. Very disappointing. 

Some of those girls with their muffin tops looked better than VK did in training camp, yet nada from Kelli and Judy.  It took them, what, five weeks to acknowledge her roll of fat?

I think Tess is the only contender for the position behind point. She’s the tallest senior vet, GL and SG. If she makes point then they have to put Taylor behind her.

I was thinking the same thing.

I think Heather would be an awesome pick for point.  Like I said a few days ago, I don't really care who they pick for point as long as it's not squinty eyed Gina.  I do not like her looks or facials.  (I still think she's way too much of a "look at me" kind of dancer though she does seem to have toned down her extra-ness in the last few months).
