My biggest flex is meeting both of them. I grew up in the Des Moines area where Chow’s gym is located. I met Shawn at a nail salon and Gabbi when I was a student at Chow’s. Watching them practice at the gym was mesmerizing for a little girl
I love it, too. It seems despite everything we’ve progressed as a society to a point where finally women’s athletic careers (such as dance, gymnastics, figure skating, ball, etc) aren’t seen as dead by 21. I love it. Our bodies are strong!
? ? ? Trained together for almost FOUR years ?!🙄 If Gabby walked in in 2010, that would be two years; possibly 2.5 at MOST. That's not 'almost 4 years.' (Shawn retired June 3, 2012)
Dude, so what if her dates are a bit off. She lived a crap ton of life in the first 16 years of her life. Give her a break. Is it really that important?
@@shelleyroper588 Shawn was already18 when Gabby came to Chow's. 2.5 years should not be called 'Almost 4.' It's as simple as that. I'm sure Shawn wouldn't say her gymnastics score was almost 1.5 HIGHER than she actually received !!! Accuracy matters.😑
