devalue roll-out skills

It seems that every male gymnast does many different roll-out skills. But — in fact — they are only allowed to do two.

2012 MAG Code

For improved safety of the athletes, I hope the rumour is true — that they will be devalued next Code. Certainly they are overused type currently.

(That still leaves FIG in the awkward position of banning them for WAG, but allowing them for MAG.)

Yusuke competed Worlds immediately after his concussion. Then sat out All Japan Championships. I’m wondering what the Japanese medical staff advised.
