Event (FIG) 2026 Baku World Cup (Mar 5-8)

But that switch full was barfarama. The only truly hideous part of the routine. It can't be worth more than the deductions, right?

Not a switch split 360° - it was an attempt at a tour jeté 180° that was only credited as a tour jeté.

I really enjoyed Okamura Mana on beam, lovely work and a charming performance. Japan are fast becoming one of my favourite teams. Beam EF in Baku was more enjoyable than American Cup beam - two gymnasts did backward roll to handstands (not the only reason!).

Who did it? I love this skill! I absolutely need to see these routines!
Sorry for OT, but this was my favorite BB routine from NLC. Aerial-roundoff acro series, and then aerial roundoff or whatever is it called

This type of acro series is the type of non-series that I just cannot agree with.

With a fan's eyes, not a judge's, that 8.2 E seemed generous. A lot of arching and short handstands. Pretty sloppy, but so early in the season, don't care. But someone with judge eyes, I would be interested in your opinion. Less than optimal camera angle though.

I have a 7.9 E

Which makes the American Cup beam routine scoring even more weird, for me.

What makes it worse is how low the side aerial lands and then she never gets her back straight, probably on purpose, because that would "break" the connection. So it's just totally lethargic.

So happy Jesse Moore left with 2 medals. Next step is getting his HB routine consistent.

It is the equivalent to a pike-in to straddle cut being a same-bar flight element on UB. Both are anemic and are in need of a gymnastics transfusion.
