Very, very few adult gymnasts can do it without deduction.

Don’t teach that technique unless you are the world’s greatest Bar coach. It’s a near guaranteed deduction.

greater accountability for Gymnastics judges
I was an FIG judge for decades. Always willing to justify my scores to any gymnast or coach.
Over that time in MAG we sometimes published the names of judge scores on each apparatus. Sometimes we didn’t.
Personally I feel judging would be better — more accurate — more objective — if judges names were published with the scores they awarded.
Officials in other sports are far more visible than Gymnastics.
You can see them for NCAA meets on Road To Nationals. For example, if you go to the results page for the Jan-05-2019 Oklahoma – Arkansas meet, and click on the PDF link top left, you get the official score sheet signed by the judges.
Also. Perhaps they could TRY to not to score based on reputation.
Thanks Cordelia.
Shadae Boone – Vault
When I see judging like this, I DREAM of computer video evaluation. It would be easy for software on Vault to be more accurate.

Oklahoma ALL 10.0 start Vaults
It happened. Oklahoma is the first team to compete 6 gymnasts with 10.0 start values.
And they hit for a 49.5 total.
related – Maggie Nichols and Sam Peszek both feel the NCAA should increase Beam requirements next. The current rules are too easy, they feel.
Natalie Wojcik – 10.3 on Vault
That’s my score based on current Carol College judging

One of the worst scores I can recall was Brittany Rogers at Championships with a superb Yurchenko 1 1/2. … Score 9.85!
Natalie was pretty happy in Cancun in any case. She’s the only First Year near the top of the AA rankings.
