Kyle Shewfelt’s 2008 comeback
Kyle had every reason to retire after 2004, the Olympic Floor Champion.
But he felt driven to train for one more. Beijing would be his 3rd Olympics.
In 2006 FIG changed the Code of Points to reward difficulty over execution, Kyle’s forte. In 2007 Kyle suffered a horror-show injury landing Tamayo with straight legs at Worlds. Yet he still wouldn’t give up.
This week @Olympics posted his comeback story.

Simone Biles – backward handspring
Long. Resulting in a sharp attack angle.
But is as so often the case, it’s not necessarily the target technique for every gymnast.
Personally I like beginners to do long, low backward handspring series. Later change the technique to whatever works best for each tumbling line.
