    Travelling to the side is not a deduction on floor and in MAG not a listed deduction at all. The nebulous "other aesthetic/technical...

    But perfect technique doesn't matter if you are too tall to fit the pass in the floor space. A physicist could calculate how much space...

    I think as the floors have gotten springier and more forgiving, we have seen a clear regression of tumbling basics. Mukhina couldn't...

    Yes this is a really good point

    @Aeris There already are deductions for going crooked. No need for a second deduction penalizing the same thing. And, tumbling down a...

    The code doesn't reward a gymnast for doing a skill in 50 feet rather than 55. Floor isn't "who can do it the shortest". Simone didn't...

    Triple saltos were landed in bounds on floor in the 80's. Nothing on floor has increased past that difficulty. If someone can't do it in...

    I just don't see it as coddling, at all. The vault oob lines widen with distance. The apparatus encourages distance and forgives...

    @dweiss324 explained it beautifully (thank you) and here's a picture that helps explain further. This guy went out of bounds because of...

    @Matilda23 I think he means that a lot of oob infractions are not because the gymnast went longer than the diagonal, but because they...

    BTW, I think it's hilarious that someone made a montage of Olga Teslenko going out of bounds. I don't think I ever realized she had this...

    People keep missing the point. Corner shape = more out of bounds. Watch this montage. Most gymnasts didn't go more than 56 feet — but...

    @Sasha: Yep, because of how the floors are made, 25 × 64 can be obtained from most 40 × 40 floors with limited-to-zero cost. The spring...

    Wouldn't the 65" length be a mere 8.5 feet longer than the current diagonals? That's not even two extra strides for most of them...
