2020 Men's Artistic Gymnastics Team Final (Monday, July 26, 2021)

[rlayt]

Small one foot movement from Brody. Off balance a tiny tiny bit.

 

[rlayt]

Great rotation!

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I’m mostly just fangirling and going squee.

That being said, Joe Fraser PB looked a bit weaker than qualifications, to my untrained eye. Couple of wobbles. Can’t see that getting into the mid 15s.

 

[rlayt]

Can’t see that getting into the mid 15s.

It didn’t. 14.666

 

[rlayt]

Ruoteng wears a lot of tape. No stick. Shaking his head.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

There is 0.002 between Japan in 2nd and China in 3rd at the halfway point. Let that sink in.

 

[rlayt]

Japan doesn’t need Uchimura anymore.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Yeah, it’s poignant.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

China are 0.098 ahead of Japan now, but I think that was possibly a better rotation for Japan than them because there was nearly a point between them on vault in prelims.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Sam’s pbars weren’t quite as good as qualifications.

 

[rlayt]

Was that hop a .1 or .3 deduction? Sam’s routine.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

I think the hop itself is .1, but there should also be a deduction for being low, so maybe it ends up being .3. It still got a 15.0, though.

 

[rlayt]

I hope he’ll lose that deduction before EF.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Dalaloyan hit his hip on PB and only got 14.6… apparently it was a 0.5 deduction. It could come down to that…

 

[arabiandoublefront]

That’s a shame.

 

[rlayt]

Shane’s best HB to date.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Up .3 from prelims!

That was a great high bar rotation from Shane, Brody, and Sam!

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Russia have about 0.65 on China in 2nd and 1.3 on Japan in 3rd. Theirs to lose. If I were Nagornyy, I wouldn’t be throwing the triple pike.

 

[RAFIKI]

This is a fantastic TF.

 

[Dex]

Praying so hard for Arthur’s achilles to hold…
