FX EF INQUIRY (Jordan Chiles Stripped Of Bronze Medal/USAG launches appeal)

[onodian]

I honestly don't know what to tell you. If I really zoom in I don't think she touches

 

[onodian]

This is all of course incredibly petty and stupid and can we please have scores that differentiate routines beyond 0.2 tenths, but these are the rules we have now and I'd be pissed out of my head if I was her I think.

8.1 is the new 8.8

I thought the floor had some type of censor that would register an OOB

 

[J175]

I don't think you can decide from that angle. We need the shot along the line.

 

[JaJa]

Once again I have to say how much I hate FX. All that posey dance interspersed with stiffed armed galloping around the floor to launch themselves into leaps is just meh and sometimes cringe. I say get rid of the music and the “dance” and make it like men’s FX.

I am 100% with you on this. Its ridiculous. And I would say sexist.

lol no

Even when I was sad for Jordan, I was super happy for Ana Barbosu.

 

[Seyonne]

Where are the line judges?

 

[onodian]

They're having wine and cheese out on a chateau

Where are the line judges?

When I was sitting on the bars side of the arena, the line judge was on the right side of the floor, but like up from the floor. It's hard to explain because I've never seen the line judge set up that way. They weren't right next to the podium like I usually see.

 

[Dex]

MUCH more mature than Sabrina who pointed out how she did a better routine that Jordan, totally surpassing her teammate.
I understand she is 17 and dissapointed but keep tomyou own performance and don’t criticize other gymnasts

 

[Seyonne]

how can one line judge monitor all four corners?

 

[BB12]

well yes but have you ever watched a gymnastics competition with a dancer? they cry on the inside with every leap

ETA: and sometimes on the outside

For me it's the turns. Painful. I know the material the floor is made of is difficult to turn on but I'm begging them to keep their shoulders down.

It frosts my cookies that we care this much about whether a Gogean is fully rotated, but don’t care about the split.

 

[BB12]

I am so gutted for Romania. Either way, they deserved the bronze over Chiles because there is no way that gogean should have been credited. Kinda baffling the inquiry got accept based on how that element's long been judged.

Voinea's potential OOB is so close that I cant tell if it happened or not. They need to release the other angle to end that controversy. Ana routine was lovely and would have been a wonderful bronze routine.

 

[Seyonne]

But the inquiry wasn’t about the gogean. It was about the tour jete half. Or is that the same thing?

 

[onodian]

Nobody cares. Seriously. End this, FIG #downwithtourjete

 

[MaryClare]

It was on the split full no? They gave it as a C when it’s a D
