Balandin skills on Rings

UPDATE

Balandin 1 is hang vertical pull up with straight arms to swallow (Maltese) 2sec

Balandin 2 is hang vertical pull up with straight arms to inverted cross 2sec

Both are E-parts. Both are awesome.

Is this Balandin 3?

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Let’s see what Aleksandr Balandin competed last week at Russian Championships.

Balandin 2

Oops. My mistake. That was from a competition in the LAST code.

Click PLAY or watch his most recent routine on YouTube.

He used what I assume will be called the Balandin 3.

He ended up finishing only 5th on Rings. Due to the fall on dismount.

That first routine was posted on a site new to me — Videos of Russian Gymnasts – Aleksandr Balandin page.

Ws van Wijk caught my error. And linked to the correct routine from Russian Championships. THANKS.
