I saw a terrific video clip linked from Gym Chat.
Originality Montage by FullyBooked is one clip you will want to watch several times. Original, even shocking, elements from gymnastics history.
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
Some of the greatest elements in Men’s Artistic Gymnastics resulted from the (long-gone) “originality bonus”.
(OK, it resulted in a lot of garbage skills, as well.)
Still, I miss the originality bonus. One of the biggest problems in Men’s Gymnastics is routines with similar structure. The new code has helped.
