Worlds Qualifier: 2022 European Championships — Munich, Germany August 11- 21

[Sasha]

Very reminiscent of Bross.

Craig says GB haven’t enquired Gadirova’s score

I think I would, to be honest. It was close.

 

[Doug1233]

If that doesn’t get a 9.333…

 

[Sasha]

That was great.

 

[Doug1233]

How that was over a tenth worse than Voss’ vault is beyond me.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

KOVACS WALKS OFF SAFELY WOOOOOOOO

 

[Sasha]

Is that her normal second vault? Just wondering because it looked SO easy for her!

 

[Doug1233]

Kovacs is so underrated.

 

[Caledi]

Kovacs makes everything she does look easy.

 

[GLeigh]

Is there any reason GB isn’t inquiring?

 

[Doug1233]

That block was terrible!

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

It was pretty pikey tbh. I’d still be tempted to give it a go but more because the judging here has mostly been pretty loose rather than anything else.

 

[Doug1233]

That was so flat off the table jeez

 

[Doug1233]

I feel like telling Jess she can come off the couch if she wants to!

 

[Doug1233]

The irony of the Code calling that a layout rudi, and downgrading Jess’s vault to pike…

 

[Sasha]

Indeed. I think the gymnasts have demonstrated that it’s more than possible to do 1+ twists in pike.

 

[Doug1233]

I’m sorry, I don’t care what the Code says. Gadirova’s vaults were better than Friess’ vaults.

 

[Sasha]

Whatever. I’m just happy for Kovac and the rest of the survivors. I need to get off the couch and shake out some of these nerves. Hopefully UB will be a bit more zen!

 

[Doug1233]

The fact that Rasmussen scored half a tenth less than Gadirova is shocking. The Vault Code needs to change.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

There has been some fairly eccentric judging this week.
