UK favourite Louis Smith won Pommels at the World Cup meet in Scotland last weekend. His circles aren’t extended. But he’s very consistent.

No surprise there.
Now Louis plans an attempt at the Guiness World Record for the highest number of flares on a pommel horse.
What? The current record is only 46?

Hey, Louis just picked up his 20th birthday present, a new £24,000 Scirocco.
Thanks Tracey Morrison.

The issues go beyond not having an extended circle; Louis Smith has a consistent lack of amplitude, his knees are often bent, his toe point is poor, his legs separate multiple times during his routine and he has a substantial rhythm deduction during his dismount.

I’m with you coach! Smith’s presentation and amplitude are average and it just seems like this routine is muscled through not swinging like most world class gymnast.
