Wyatt Tyndall – P Bars

For the first time the three Tyndall brothers competed against one another at Big Ten Championships.

I’ll give the win to the eldest – Wyatt.

His team took the win. And he rocked this Parallel Bar set.

Sam Mikulak – P Bars

Sam had a good American Cup and counting the ACTUAL scores he tied Yul Moldauer for 1st in the AA. Weird and wrong FIG truncating of scores to 3 decimal places put him in 2nd place.

I don’t feel that badly for Sam, however. Many in the MAG community pointed out he should never have been awarded 7.966 E-score on P Bars. Sam had a full fall on to the equipment. … Who were the judges?

Handstand on elevated surfaces

Gymnasts will eventually need to do their handstands at height.

A great way to start is in a safe place with legs resting on a Bar.

Kids can concentrate on shape rather than worrying about falling.

Impressive. But I’m not convince they are all that useful for Stutz / Diamadov.
