Kohei – 2014 Floor
I’d argue Kohei Uchimura singled handedly reinvented how male gymnasts land.
Easily the best in the world in his prime, many emulated Kohei’s exaggerated technique.
I love it as he turned the science of safely reducing huge impact forces to zero into an art form.
At the same time WAG was foolishly deducting low chest position. Dangerous!
Of his many stuck routines over many years, Blythe chose this as one of her decade-defining routines.

Landings are incredibly important in NCAA competition. Yet College girls are not very good at them. 😕
Almost any male gymnast is more skilled at bringing impact forces to zero than almost any female gymnast. Male gymnasts work seriously on landings.

Yes. Part of the problem in WAG is judging expectations. We need to educate judges to the biomechanically, physiologically BEST and SAFEST techniques of landing.
