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

[YurchenkoLoop]

Devillard’s FTY scores .3 more than Nemour’s yesterday, which means someone is going to federal prison

Unless I am forgetting someone, no one has won an world/Olympic event final with a fall maybe they should to expose how shitty an opening ended code really is

Without an open-ended code, we would never have seen the skill. It’s a mixed bag.

 

[Sasha]

I never expected to see Wong in a Worlds vault final.

 

[Laura722]

This red leo is so much better than the blue one from yesterday.

 

[Livi]

This is what I wondered too.

Having just seen the vault now, Simone didn’t look unsafe there. She’s also probably going to get a medal. Maybe they have an agreement he’ll only step in if there’s a danger, because most of the time Simone is still going to medal if she just crashes.

Definitely. A small overrotation like this is not dangerous. It makes perfect sense for Laurent not to do anything. And I agree, they’ve probably talked this through and I don’t think it’s up to us to decide if Laurent standing there was “useless”

I am ok with her winning. She is doing something that difficult. With similar difficulty I am not a fan

Stepping in is dangerous for both of them. She has tremendous force coming down. Unless she misses a hand or is otherwise seriously under rotated, it’s safer for her to take a controlled fall. But if she is under rotated, better for him to be able to stop her from landing on her neck

This works for me. Yes, it says geoblocked but Press play and it works for me. I’m in the states.

[tempest]

is that going to be considered piked again?

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

Genuine Lopez from Wong. Should not be downgraded

 

[MaryClare]

is that going to be considered piked again?

I hope not. It was straight

 

[MaryClare]

Downgraded. She is NOT happy. Neither is Simone

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

ope it was downgraded. 12.833

 

[onodian]

and the code fucks us up yet again, on vt

 

[RichardL]

and the code fucks us up yet again, on vt

Agreed. At what stage of the post-flight are they deciding to evaluate body shape for SV purposes? She piked down but was otherwise straight. This is such a miss.

 

[MaryClare]

I don’t get it. If you made that shape on any other apparatus it would be considered straight

Everyone might as well just chuck Cheng’s rather than doing safe easier vaults

unless it´s a LO to two on bb, tbh

I’m surprised we don’t see more Khorkinas

 

[Sasha]

If it was a front salto it would be considered straight. :roll_eyes:
