Pommel G-part – Busnari

January 14th, 2013 | Gymnastics, judging, pommel horse

Over the next quadrennial, gymnasts will all be training variations of DSA to handstand,3/3 travel, 360 turn to flairs, the only pure G listed on Pommel Horse.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Alberto has competed routines with that skill in addition to another variation credited with F.

LOVE the trend. But predict that Busnari will be devalued over the next 4 years.

What I’m really waiting for is Air Flare (VIDEO) on Pommels. THAT should be a G-part.

It would be awesome if he did that with the same fluidity that Artemev used to show on his PH Gogoladze type skills. As for the value, who knows, FIG are totally unpredictable (and often totally irrational) with skill values. God knows why a Yamawaki on HB is still rated a D. That should have been devalued a long time ago.

Yamawaki is a glorified hecht.

I was first to mention airflare on pommels.

Wonder why that part is a G…seems like several tricks in succession, not a single part.

Airflare on pommels would be impossible. The skill (necessarily) involves too much of a change of axis.

I think airflare on pommel would be possible. If you watch Morgan Hamm, he stays straight, the only issue for him is that he travels. But if you could eliminate the travel then it would theoretically be possible.

Airflaire on the horse. I’m right there with you Rick. Still waiting

Man you guys have me thinking now. After watching the video of Morgan it could be done. It would need to start from flaired back loops. the air flair it self would clear the pommels. Man that would be awesome.
