2024 MAG Qualification Subdivision 2 (MG 1, NED, CHN, JPN, MG 6, UKR) Saturday, July 27 9:30 am ET

I think it was a double wammy for Tanigawa - he indicated a handspring double pike ½. But didn't do the ½ ... and the double pike was downgraded to a double tuck.

Only 14.2 average score - might be good news for Asher

 

[tempest]

I think Asher will be a reserve... there are a few that should make VT EF like Carlos, Artur, the 2 Ukrainians et al

ETA: There are a lot of people who should bump him in this session alone

I missed the name of the Chinese gymnast, but his run up to vault is wild. Like he's out for a light jog.

 

[Hatsumomo]

I wonder why MAG doesn't use the U-mat around the springboard. Not having one is an automatic 0 for WAG.

I thought it was only needed for yurchenko vaults

 

[Puffin]

Does China have no MAG doing 2 vts?

 

[Passion]

Does China have no MAG doing 2 vts?

No. China surviving vault with all their limbs still functioning was the victory here.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

No. China surviving vault with all their limbs still functioning was the victory here.

I suspect they'd have taken a 14.5 average counting score if offered to them beforehand...

 

[Big_rock_show]

China counting that fall on vt

 

[tempest]

They don't get to drop a score in prelims?

 

[Passion]

They do, the fall will be dropped.

That's why Liu Yang was up last. He was only going to vault if someone fell.

 

[Hatsumomo]

Goddamn it's close between Japan and China. Japan leads by .001.

Oh duhhh, thanks!

 

[tempest]

good for him!

AIT SAID Samir

[Angelika]

Good SR routine from Said - every time I see this gymnast I say a little prayer and I'm not religious in any way!

 

[rlayt]

Said will always be known for a gruesome injury.

HUge score

Hashimoto fell on his HB dismount. Fantastic routine up until then.

The top HB workers are having a terrible day on the event. Somebody dust off Epke Zonderland and tag him in to rescue HB EFs.
