Frontwave Arena in Oceanside hosts its first event NBC 7 San Diego [Video]

A night of high energy dance routines synchronized to pulsating pop music helped to usher in a new sports and entertainment arena in Oceanside.

People were literally flipping out, doing cartwheels and other gym moves as they waited to see the Gold Over America Tour or GOAT, starring gold medal gymnast Simone Biles.

“I like Simone because she’s good at flipping and does impossible stuff,” said 9-year-old Ariana Hawkins who turned a cartwheel while in line waiting to get into the show.

Maya Chevalier, 6, was doing gymnastics routines in line with her sister, Abby.
