FIG Men’s Technical Committee Meeting
Lausanne (SUI), February 19 – 21, 2011
The Committee’s President Adrian Stoica (ROU) was very satisfied with the meeting’s outcome, stating:
“With the new World Cup format and the modified qualifying system for the Olympic Games we have implemented important changes in 2011 and look forward to an interesting year. …
There are a lot of good minds on that committee. I’ve nothing but respect for Steve BUTCHER and Istvan KARACSONY.
Edouard IAROV is one of the 2-3 coaches that have influenced me most.
Sadly they’ll not make significant improvements to the rules on Floor and H Bar until after the Olympics. It’s too late in the cycle.
It was a busy week at the FIG offices. WTC met, as well. And the Sport Science Commission had a meeting of the minds on the effects of intensive gymnastics training.

The question is do they think there is a problem with the rules for floor and high bar? I remember an interview with Stoica in IG a while back and from memory he didn’t seem to have a problem with the current rules.
I think their views may be different because of their role. Their role is to make a document that can be used at different ability levels and produce a method to differentiate between gymnasts for assigning a winner of a competition.
I feel some fans think they are suppose to be gymnastics police
