Shewfelt on GymCastic

One of the most interesting interviews so far, 2004 Olympic Floor Champ Kyle Shewfelt.

In this episode, Kyle chatted with Uncle Tim about the Winter Cup; then told us what it felt like to compete in the mythical “zone,” how to party at the Olympics, what it felt like to break both legs at once, about his FIG proposal to bring men’s gymnastics back to its artistic roots, gives tips on combating homophobia and bullying of gymnasts, and how to put on an innovative fun meet that creates memories for kids and their parents. Yes, we said parents!

Listen on GymCastic

Kyle’s competition is March 14-17, 2013 at the University of Calgary.

Host Canada will take on the USA.

Leave a comment if you’ve got a list of the Canadians. As usual, it’s not easy to find on Gymnastics Canada online. So far I see no improvement in communication in the new quadrennial.
