We had a series of threads back on WWGym, but since those have disappeared into the ether with the board and there’s not much going on right now, let’s bring back the discussion/argument/healthy debate on who is the best on each event. Though the parameters of what makes somebody the best of the event is its own discussion.
Best Vaulter
Best Beam Worker
Best Uneven Bars
Best Floor
We had separate threads for each, but I figured one thread would be fine unless separate threads becomes necessary.
My submission for best beam worker is of course Yang Bo. At the very least, the best beam worker to never win a World or Olympic medal on the event. Her skills were precise, those LOSOs so floaty, and her routine was fluid with none of the modern-day skill-stop-skill-stop-halfbaked choreography-stop-skill.
Though Fan Ye is damn near coming for the crown.
