OT Artistic Gymnastics

[quitthedrama]

High bar judges tend to score gymnast very low on their execution (it probably has the lowest execution score averages across any apparatus, even lower than pommel horse). Most men, even Uchimura, struggle to hit their handstand positions (pirouettes to hand stands etc.). You will almost never see an execution score of 8.8 and above... the highest execution score on high bar yesterday belonged to Belyavskiy - 8.733. For future reference:

Uchimura had a start value of 17.1, that's 0.6 ahead of Verniaiev; Uchimura's execution score was 0.4 higher than Verniaiev; Uchimura stuck his dismount, Verniaiev didn't (for parallel bars too, which he normally does... all those precious tenths) and probably explains at least 0.3 of the 0.4 difference in execution scores. It was painfully close.

Thank you . I should have had my sarcasm font on, but this was super informative! I am just side-eyeing a bit that Oleg needed 14.9 to win and had just enough deductions to move to silver. Nearly 2 points in deductions is a lot - even though there were mistakes it was a solid routine.

It seems that Nastia Liukin and Tim Daggett have Simone and Aly taking gold and silver respectively. I can see Mustafina taking the bronze but as always, anything can happen.

Well, he scored 15.133 in qualifications with a stuck landing... so -0.3 off is 14.833 (they found something else to deduct 0.033, who knows?)

I'm a Verniaievstan, so it was really hard for me to accept at first... but I suppose scores were fair (interview with Verniaiev's coach stating he thought it was fair too).

I hope that while Aly is trying to avenge her bronze AA medal from 2012, she grabs the silver today instead.

Basically like the team final leo except both sleeves are white

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture.

I thought Aly was wearing the same red Leo from 2012 and I got a little teary eyed but then I realized the stones were going the opposite way.

I thought the same thing at first as well.
