Worlds 2021 - Podium Training

Doug, I’m looking to add more gymnasts to the spreadsheet–can I copy and paste or will that f*ck up some formatting?

You can totally copy paste more sections underneath!

The only thing that won’t work is the “rank” column but we don’t care about that for PT!

Also, screw Tom and Al. Leanne’s routines are so tragic and she had/has so much potential.

This slogan ought to be available on t-shirts in a range of colours and fonts, because I’d like one for every day of the week.

How can Andrade do these vaults but not a watered down floor routine.

I want to cry!

I don’t have IG… did she do the DTY and the cheng?

ETA: I just saw her vts on facebook… WTF even if she did her watered down FX like she did at nationals, she could probably still get an AA medal

 

[onodian]

Yes, dty and cheng, looking fabulous except lowish landing on cheng, but pretty much stuck. DTY is beautiful. I also think a very easy floor for her standards could do it, but given the career she’s had, let’s count our blessings and wish for vt gold and maybe ub medal

 

[tempest]

she is looking good on UB as well

I would love for Igor to finally win a gold especially after 2017

She is prioritizing Paris and so that is why she decided not to compete floor/AA here.

Urasova trying to capitalize on form on FX opting for a double pike, 2 1/2 punch tuck, front layout, double full.

I updated the sheet. Go nuts!

Maybe post links to the videos that you’re judging (esp. the Chinese) so that we are all judging the same PT routine.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Urazova was only down to do bars… wondering now if they’re going to put her in the AA after all. We didn’t see her vault on the Olympic channel highlights, but she’s standing on the podium with Melnikova and Minaeva and they evidently missed out the first half because we only saw the second vaults from those two. They both normally do Yurchenkos.

If she is doing AA, that shakes things up a bit.

 

[Doug1233]

The Olympic Channel “highlights” cutting midway through routines so we cannot judge the whole thing is so first world problems but also so annoying lol.

 

[Doug1233]

So far on floor we have Melnikova (13.6), DiCello (13.4), Murakami (13.4) Urazova (13.2), Wong (12.85), Frazier (11.7), McClain (11.7).

On beam we have Luo Rui (15.0!), THT (14.4), McClain (13.2), DiCello (12.8).

On bars we have Melnikova (14.2), WXY (13.95), Downie (13.6 with a fall).

FIG says:

Livestreamed finals and qualification routines on YouTube​

You can watch all finals live and on demand on the FIG YouTube channel. Qualification routines from each athlete will be made available after the event.

They both normally do Yurchenkos.

If she is doing AA, that shakes things up a bit.

Even if she waters down to a FTY her strength on bars and beam and clean floor would put her in medal contention.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

This is what I thought. She’s got to be a stronger AA medal contender than Minaeva.

 

[Doug1233]

This is why I don’t understand the top contenders not doing full AA sets.

They’ve literally dragged their arses back to Tokyo. A two or three day trip, by all accounts. They’re warming up for other events anyway. They’re right there!

Why not go up and do a watered down routine which, in the current climate of execution deduction purgatory, would probably score decently well anyway.

Makes no sense to me.

I would love this but i have little hope. Here’s hoping I’m proven incredibly wrong

 

[Doug1233]

It never ever happens.

It never ever happens.

Me being proven wrong? I know. Ugh it’s such a curse I tell you
