Driggs with a 1/2 – Pommel

March 14th, 2013 | Gymnastics, NCAA, pommel horse

Update – Commenters tell that “FIG MTC gave him only a D”. I assume that’s not official, as yet.

Coaching Methods:

… very similar to the Driggs (3/3 cross support travel fwd. with hop over both sets of Pommels). Given that the Driggs is worth an E, I guess this should be an F.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

That’s Michael Newburger, a walk-on pommel specialist for Ohio.

I think more like a D. 1/2 spindle with 3/3 travel. A driggs has to show a clear hop and land with both hands together. I know this would be extremely hard with a 1/2 turn but still….it’s not really an E value element, still pretty cool though.
