Moose Jaw?
Is that a real place?
Yep. I was there yesterday for the annual Gymtastiks Invitational. Here’s their training gym, impressive for a town this size.
The competition was hosted just next door.
One nice touch — an extra strip of Floor on each side of the 40′ x 40′.
Check Gym Score Depot for full results and photos by Stu Cram.
Back in the 1990s I spent many weeks coaching training camps in Moose Jaw. A fascinating town.

World Trampoline Champion, Paul Luxon, from Great Britain with his then fiancé, Ute Czech, German Champion. They were married in 1973. This photo, taken by Chris Ware/Getty Images in May 1973, was titled “Head in the Clouds” and was featured in “Life” Magazine.
I saw that in Trampoline Pundit Flickr Photos. A nice historical archive.

The best gymnastics photo shoot since Alphabet Photography.
Brigham Young University’s Dave Broberg (somehow) comes up with the idea of splashing water on the gymnasts to put together their annual poster.
See more photos from that shoot.
Click PLAY or see how it was done on YouTube.
It includes some funny misfires.

Chris Castner posted this pic of Mitsuo Tsukahara:
… We were working out at Muscle Beach when a bus dropped off members of the touring Japanese Mens’ and Womens’ Olympic Gymnastics Teams…to see this world-famous location.
… No warm up…he didn’t even unbutton his coat or loosen his tie! (Note the Olympics logo on his jacket). At the time, the Japanese Men were the best gymnasts in the world…
See the original on Facebook.
Tsukahara was recently back in California, training at Byers with the Japanese girls.
Ron Bell (coaching out of the Stanford Gym) recognized Tsukahara and shared the photo. Thanks.
