The Olympics are over. I’ve just downloaded (free) the next WAG draft code.
The most talked about change (so far) is that only the 8 highest value skills including the dismount will be counted on UB, BB and FX. That will hopefully mean shorter routines with more room for Artistry. … It is called Artistic Gymnastics, after all. And hopefully there will be fewer injuries due to fatigue.
This change sounds like a good one to me. But the inevitable unintended consequences will only start appearing with the first competitions under the new rules.
The Yurchenko 5/2 twist is still 6.50 start. Double twist only 5.80.
It’s available as a PDF document from this page on the FIG website. (Left side navigation WAG > 2009 > English.)
