So what happens for Brody Malone (USA) and Ludovico Edalli (ITA) regarding naming the skill in the COP? First person to salute the judges gets it named after him? Luck of the draw for who is on PBars first doesn’t seem fair somehow. What is the deal in something like this?

I assume you aren’t in Tokyo Rick. When was the last time you missed a big event like this? I sort of imagined you always were at Worlds and Olympics (maybe that’s just my imagination).

  With the Shewfelt vault, it was whomever happened to compete it first at that competition. BUT I believe FIG is now sometimes hyphenating both names. … The entire naming system is a mess, especially for WAG.
