Would younger girls be better at this sport than older girls?Does it matter? The age limit is 16 regardless if it makes them better or not. If team USA did this we'd have everyone jumping down our throats. Link to comment

Better in terms of performing harder stunts, but they lack experience and the mental part of it. A younger play wont necessarily be as nervous as an older one. Link to comment

Eventhough if she is thirteen, the media will never find out because she is 100% protected by the Chinese government. Edited August 15, 2008 by Toxin Link to comment
