I'm on the West Coast and don't work until 11am tomorrow, so I might watch the first hour.

Is there a way to get the longlines score link to show all scores and not just the last one? It worked fine for the men. =(

Mine plays fine on my computer, but buffers if I try to play through website on my TV.

Link to scores?

I meant the equipment...

Maybe it is just the angle/loose carpet edge, but this floor looks horrible. It shouldn't move that much. ETA: watching Roberson's routine it might just be the moving carpet edge that makes it look worse, but it is super distracting while watching the video! It probably doesn't look as bad in...

This graphic is a little misleading because I believe the 11pm EST Tuesday is actually Monday night in the US, even though it is the morning of 10/21 in Indonesia.

Exactly. 😑

:rolleyes:

I don't think it should come into play in terms of fairness -- because you and MaryClare are right that there will always be physical attributes that benefit athletes in different sports. I think it is more if we want to see more of certain skills, how would we need to adjust the apparatus for...

True - I just think the way the sport has moved towards more difficulty, it is worth thinking about these ideas others have suggested because the floor skills of today are very different from when floor exercise was created. But if we only want the shorter gymnasts to do certain...

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 a 4'8" gymnast vs. a 5'4" gymnast would need with perfect technique to generate a given skill from x number of steps and a ROBH. Taking 4 steps into a hurdle...

The floors I have put together were hard, interlocking rectangular panels with the springs, then several long strips of foam taped or velcroed together, then the carpet. Although I do agree a larger floor would be great (I'm fine with a bigger square) more panels and foam significantly...

And my video died. Guess I'll go do other things now!

I was wondering if maybe she went early (I watched the vault, but wasn't paying close attention to the signals). She might have outscored Charleigh, but not the other two.
