STOP the ‘Man Wipe’

Of all the fugly things we have to watch on Floor, the faux body waves are ugliest. 🙂

Guys use that … thing because they are (supposedly) deducted for standing 2sec or longer before a tumbling pass. There should be no such rule. It’s safer to let the gymnast catch his breath before a tumbling pass. And the routine time limit restriction already serves the purpose in not allowing anyone to waste time during a set.

In an era of chucking huge difficulty regardless of the landing, Behan is a throw back to the days of Kyle Shewfelt. Elegance and control.

Kieran Behan’s dream weekend in Rio has been capped off by claiming a silver medal in the floor exercise at the Aquece Rio test event at the HSBC Barra Olympic Arena.

Behan and compatriot Ellis O’Reilly secured qualification for Rio 2016 at the weekend, with O’Reilly becoming the first Irish woman to qualify for the Olympics in the sport. …

full results

Max Whitlock performed sensationally to score a personal best of 92.700 to take the title. Having never broken the 92 mark before it is a huge score for Max that would have won both the last Olympic Games and World Championships. A particular highlight was his pommel horse routine where he scored a 16.250. However that wasn’t the only 16 for the world champion, he also scored a 16.050 on the floor and an impressive 15.450 on the high bar. Max’s scores also secured him British titles on the pommel horse, floor, and high bar.

Max: “I’m really really happy – preparation went well, the build-up was perfect and that’s my personal best and I’m very happy to do it at the British. I felt good throughout the competition, tried not to get ahead of myself just focussing on the next piece, step by step and I’m happy to have done it on all six pieces on the right day.
