I always wondered if i'd ever see Olga's double back in high quality , and found it here .

Gold medal for whoever kept this high-quality tape. Loved Filatova's FX performance. I was trying to find her "If You're Happy And You Know It" routine some time ago.

Wow. It's just WAG Judge Hatred™, it seems? Absolutely no clue. I had it at 8.8 as well, and that was while TRYING to get down to 8.3 or 8.4

My pen was completely down between 0:53 and 1:48. I don't think we have ever seen 55 seconds of a floor routine being completely deduction-free in decades.

Don't forget to deduct .5 for the abomination that is the switch ring 1/2

It wasn't 0.5.

I know, it's a joke, the skill is just ugly most of the time. Because this is what it looks like mid-air:



The best version of the skill is when it's done with the ring position after the 1/2 turn, so you don't get this icky gnarled body shape (but most people don't have the flexibility to do a great ring position after the turn).

The WAG committee has even forced the skill to look ugly, by disallowing it to be performed with the ring position after the 1/2 turn. It's like they want to win a prize for biggest parade of nonsense.

Beginning with the 2025 - 2028 COP, a gymnast can show the ring position at any time during a switch ring leap 1/2 and still receive credit. However, for the split ring leap 1/2, the ring position still must be shown before the 1/2 turn to receive credit.

What a silly inconsistency

The best split ring half I have seen

Who is that?

It looks like Andreea Preda at the 2023 RomGym Trophy.

Thank you Passion

Was that a dance series ? Didn't think you could land the first element on two feet.

ETA: It was! But then she does a second one just after the dismount to get the CR.
