Check out the skill our new World Champion is training on Horizontal Bar.
It’s at 5min in a long Japanese interview.
I’ve linked to the correct part of the video. Simply click to watch it on YouTube – 2009.12.17 Kohei Uchimura interview part 2 of 2
Could a male gymnast compete triple back regrasp before a female gymnast competes double back regrasp?
Uchimura seems to be able to do just about anything. With ease.
Barcelona1992 posted the original video on Gymnastike. Thanks.
UPDATE: He’s playing with a handspring front triple full on vault, as well.

Pretty sweet. There is one, maybe two videos I’ve seen of a woman doing a kovacs. Never in a major competition, though.
