Yang Fanyuwei UB Final - 6.7D, 8.3E - 15.000


This arena was so dark it makes the Swiss Cup blush. It's like they're doing gymnastics in a power outage and all that's on are the emergency lights.

Very nice routine

I feel like that lighting is so dangerous though. Noone would choose to train in a gym that is so poorly lit, but then we throw athletes into arenas like that as though it's a pageant and not a highly complex sport?

With a better stalder full and cutting the kip/cast on the low bar, she would score probably 15.5ish since she not only would get back a few tenths on the stalder full, skip the leg separation deduction going into the kip, and get 0.1 bonus for connecting the stalder full to the van Leeuwen

That's all nice and dandy, but I'm sure I caught her having WRONG FACE at least once so I say -0.3

The one thing FIG should do in its busybodiness is define what kind of lighting is allowable at events. It would be a better use of their power than saying what facial expressions are good and which are bad.
