oddest hurdle in gymnastic

Anyone care to explain the biomechanical advantages of Paul Ruggeri’s weird round-off?

Paul placed 3rd at the 2010 Toyota Cup …. This was his first time competing this new routine!

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Love the Tamayo (layout double Arabian).

But more than anything else, this is a perfect example of why Men’s gymnastics is so un-artistic. It’s more advantageous to add a cheap C-part than to do any corner parts, … or even hold a V-sit.
