Rebeca – disaster on Vault

Rebeca’s Cheng — first vault counting for the team — was excellent.

But her hand slipped on the second. She had to simply do a tucked Salto.

Smart decision. But she now won’t qualify for the Vault Final.

Yulo’s Vaults for Liverpool

The defending World Champ looks the man to beat in 2022.

He’s got the difficulty. And the best execution of any of the top guys.

For me he’s the favourite on both Floor and Vault.

more MAG Podium highlights

FIG will compile a medical report from Liverpool Worlds.

In it they will record what percentage of athletes left the competition due to injury.

Gymnasts were injured on day 1, including one of the H Bar favourites ➙ Tyson Bull. A lower back injury on H Bar.

But I felt there were fewer injuries than at past Worlds. MAG Vault landings were less horrific than in the past. Hopefully athletes are better prepared than in the past to survive a Code of Points where difficulty is so much more rewarded than quality. Hopefully.

MAG Gymnastics is really dangerous.

Jake Jarman – “Air Pirate”

GymCastic is trying to come up with a nickname for the new British star. 😀

watch Jake Jarman

One of the big stories at Worlds Liverpool is Jake Jarman, from Huntingdon Gym Club.

Now age-20, he’s the 2022 Commonwealth Games AA Champion — and is still improving.

With a British dad and a Filipino mom, he’s very popular in the Philippines as well as the U.K.

Looks like Jake will compete triple twisting double layout on Floor. It’s so fast and clean I had to watch slowmo to confirm it’s 3 twists. 😀

On Vault he made the most difficult twisting skill look … EASY.

I spoke with Jake after training. He was once injured on Kas + 2 twists landing in competition. At that point he and his coach decided to move to Kas + 2.5 twists as the landing is so much safer.

Asher Hong – Ri Se Gwang

Day 1 of the USA MAG Worlds trials.

All the men at Trials will be named to the team. Biggest decision is which 3 will be named to the competition team alongside Brody Malone and Donnell Whittenburg who already qualified.

The rest will be officially replacement athletes.
