… a bunch of the top AA gymnasts all competed against each other, including junior gymnasts Teppei Miwa (17) and Takeru Kitazono (16).
Incredibly, Teppei actually placed 2nd with a score breaking 84, which is a big number for a junior.
The medalists are automatically selected to compete on the AA World Cup Circuit- with first place competing in two, and the 2nd and 3rd place finishers getting to compete in one each. Which means weβll get to see young Teppei on the World stage very soon!

Spotting blocks are even better than a channel pit for introducing new skills on Bars and Horizontal Bar. There are hundreds of different configurations.
For example, introducing forward Giant.

Al Fong went through 5 prototypes before deciding on length, width, channel gap, and adjustable heights.
Great for the kids. And great for the coaches who will suffer fewer spotting injuries.

Some felt Dom Cunningham who finished 4th could have deserved Bronze. Kenzo was not deducted for stepping over the line on his stuck landing vault 2. There’s no deduction for landing ON the line.

Zou’s P Bars was the single best routine of the competition. I had him at 9.8 E-score.
Some, including myself, would have been happier if the Bronze had gone to Sam Mikulak 15.233.
H Bar
1. Zonderland Epke NED 15.100 (Exe. 8.300)
2. Uchimura Kohei JPN JPN 14.800 (Exe. 8.400)
3. Mikulak Samuel USA USA 14.533 (Exe. 8.433)
results
Jon Horton and others point out that the E score panel did not do their job. Though Epke deserved to win, there’s no way his E-score should be close to Kohei or Sam.
