Beam. Derwael received 4 x 0.0 and 3 x 0.1 artistry deductions in QF.

just have an artistry panel. Judges with a dance and ballet background, where their sole focus is on artistry, flow, moving in and out of elements. basically, the 70 seconds of a 90 second routine where the gymnast isn’t performing a skill. The E Panel have enough shit to do.

Awful awful awful. Not a positive sign…

I have: Silivas - 0.1 leg sep, 0.2 (2 steps) DLO - 0.1 knees, 0.1 hop Triple (and a half!) Wolf - 0.1 body shape, 0.1 precision Split Jump Full - 0.3 body shape (might go 1 here, depending on where you sit) Barani (0.1 leg sep, 0.1 feet), Double Back (0.1 feet, 0.1 hop) Switch Leap 0.1 body...

you could tell she was gassed by the end of that set

I actually think the USAG judges have, finally, after several decades, received the memo on disgusting leaps. It’s a shame they cannot identify a repeated bar skill though.

And yet - think of all the hundreds of hours that took to get knees and ankles and toes like that. All that effort (and pain!!) of extra stretching your body for hours every week. Then compare it to Jordan Chiles. 2-3 tenths separation in terms of artistry deductions. Not worth doing.

100% And also the Code doesn’t reward pointed feet. Look at Brooklyn Moors. All that effort on floor for fucking nothing. Just learn a triple double and that D Score drowns out anything else.

Interesting that hyper-extension in the knees and toepoint is the common thread here.

Artistry deductions on FX from Paris have been (apparently) leaked. Divide each total by 7. That’s your average artistry deduction, per judge (5 x E Panel and 2 x R Panel).

Brian knew she was on the bubble. He peaked her perfectly for Trials.
