2023 World Championship Event Finals Day 1: MAG FX, PH, SR & WAG VT/UB (Saturday 10/07)

[YurchenkoLoop]

Black’s front 1/1 is certainly as piked as Wong’s Lopez, but I’m sure Black’s won’t be downgraded

 

[Livi]

Black’s front 1/1 is certainly as piked as Wong’s Lopez, but I’m sure Black’s won’t be downgraded

Was thinking the same…

Don’t you know it’s unpossible to do a full twist in a pike position?

Way more piked! She never shows a straight position at all. Absurd.

 

[MaryClare]

Trying to stretch the toddler wake window through this whole final and I wish they’d hurry up

My nanny asked for this weekend off since months ago. My mother in law flew in from Yekaterinburg…

 

[RedBirdie]

Don’t you know it’s unpossible to do a full twist in a pike position?

Except in 2010, then it was totally possible to do a full twist in a pike position.

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

Black’s block also has so much to deduct from. .3 leg separation, at LEAST .1 for shoulder angle, bent arms, hands are pretty wide apart… maybe bent knees… whatever the f*ck. I enjoy Black but this VT score always confuses me

 

[Sasha]

Way more piked! She never shows a straight position at all. Absurd.

Yeah. Ellie Black, among others, is a huge beneficiary of the FIG’s delusions about not being able to do more than 0.5 twists in a pike.

A 9.0 E score for it…crazy. other than the great landing…

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

All these withdrawals has made this final so low stakes. There are really only 4 in contention.

 

[Seyonne]

I thought there was a deduction for flashing the wrong vault number

 

[Sasha]

Nice to see Black have a good final. Not a great week for Canada.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

A 9.0 E score for it…crazy. other than the great landing…

The same e-score Simone got for Cheng and higher than Devillard’s FTY.

 

[tempest]

13.933

 

[onodian]

ok let’s get to the interesting part. Does Yeo do the Yeo?

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

I’m okay with that going ahead of Shoko Miyata I suppose. But yeah, not my fave E score for that first vault

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

ok let’s get to the interesting part. Does Yeo do the Yeo?

Interesting. It’s not consistent, but she could potentially win now with it. If Simone hasn’t fallen I would have said a hard no.

 

[RichardL]

She’s doing it!

 

[tempest]

She’s doing it!

she flashed it but didn’t do it

 

[Laura722]

Beautiful vault!
