Question: At WOGA, who decides when to get a new floor routine? The coach, gymnast or choreographer? If a gymnast would like a new one does the choreographer usually say ''ok'' . How long does it usually take to learn it?
Answer: Well, really it's a collaboration of decisions between the coaches and gymnasts. Most of the time the coach asks the gymnast is she is ready before confirming it with the choreographer. If a gymnast requests a new floor routine it is approved almost all the time! It usually takes at the most a week to learn your new routine.

Question: Do you know/remember why WOGA seniors wore old leotard designs at Championships last year, and why the team didn't wear team leotards for the WOGA Classic in 2003 and 2004? Just curious :-)
Answer: For USA's the seniors just decided that they liked the old designs better than the new ones and the coaches let them wear what they felt most comfortable in. As for the WOGA Classic, I don't remember why we all wore different leotards!

Question: Hi Allison!! you are my favorite gymnast of all time!! i really look up to you sorry if that sounds weird lol. but I was just wondering at like what level you were for your age. I'm not sure if that makes sense, so sorry if it doesn't!! lol. Right now I'm a level 8 and I'm 11..do you think that's good?
Answer: Thank you so much! It's such a pleasure to be someone that other people look up to! I can't remember all of my ages during each level. I know that I was about 13 when I first went elite. I think that being 11 at level 8 is very good! Keep up the good work.

Question: Your overshoot on bars kind of looks like it is going to be a pac salto. Have you ever trained pacs? Also, do you train a second style vault for event finals, and can Nastia do any kind of double flip on floor?
Answer: I have never really tried pacs...and I don't really have a second style vault because I have never really made a strong effort to qualify to any vault event finals. You would have to ask Nastia about her gymnastics!
