NEW FIG Code elements
highest MAG scores 2022
Once again, Courtyard Tapir posted a spreadsheet of the top Men’s scores of the past year.
I look first at highest E-scores. Félix Dolci on Rings, for example — 9.0. That guy is super clean.
The highest E-score in the AA was Scotland’s Frank BAINES at Commonwealth Games — 52.400.
FIG MAG H Bar grip change deductions
From FIG MTC Newsletter December 2022.
An additional grip change is considered an “additional or intermediate hand support” and will be deducted 0.1.
Examples include:
– Zou Li Min or Adler 1/1 turn to mixed grip followed by an immediate grip change to undergrip will be deducted 0.1
– Endo, Kip or Backuprise with overgrip followed by two consecutive grip changes to undergrip will be deducted 0.1 for the 2nd grip change
Elements in mixed grip (Giant Forward, Endo, Backuprise, Kip etc.) followed by one grip change to undergrip will not receive a deduction.
Note that WAG are rarely, perhaps never, deducted for similar unnecessary grip changes.
FIG MAG landing deductions
From FIG MTC Newsletter December 2022.
The Code of Points, Article 9.2.17 states the following:
Landing with feet slightly apart and gymnast lifts heels and joins both heels together without lifting and moving the front of his feet – No deduction
There have always been discussion surrounding what is meant by “slightly”. …
If the feet are more than 10cm apart there will be a 0.1 or 0.3 deduction taken, even if the heels are brought together after the initial landing. (Article 9.4)

Two views. Judges, now sitting in a line, see the second angle, where it’s far more difficult to see the split of the legs in preflight.
GREAT vault otherwise.
