But competition was in china....I don't understand competition scoring, but my favorites were Vorobyov Olexander and Yuri Van Gelder. Can you explain to us how the scoring works and why you think Jordan should have won?Thanks,-sS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain to us how the scoring works and why you think Jordan should have won?Thanks,-sSI didn't saw Vorobyov and Gelder, I've just saw those three.Why should Jordan won I already wrote it.ok, for easier understanding on rings all holds should be in the line, any deviation from that is deduction: If look at the simple cross: if shoulders are in palm height, it's allright, but if it's higher for 15° it's deduction (so very small deviation). it's same for kips for instance a kip to maltese: shoulders must not go above cross shoulders height any deviation is deductionDeviations:15° 0,1 deduction15-30° 0,3 deduction30-45° 0,5 deduction and non recognition for element or bonus (no bonus from this year)fall 0,8 deduction (from this year is 1 point)All elements with salto yamawaki, jonnason, streched jonnason, gouchgi, o'neil (I'm not sure for last two if I wrote them correctly) MUST be without support on rings (supportless all the time). Support is deduction:very very small support 0,1small support 0,3support 0,5 and non recognitionDismount must be OBVIOUS stuck!!! Judge must see, that competitior is stuck and he can stand! Chinee made a step and the he didn't obvious stood still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiftedShapes Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 I have found the second video with Yuri, Olexander, but it doesn't worke normally, it's stopping every second and imposible to watch.it's the first video of the post: http://pull-ups.blogspot.com/2009/01/20 ... rings.htmlworks fine for me, it might be your internet or youtube, so try again in a few hours.Also thanks for your breakdown. I thought both Yuri and Vorobyov had better lines than Jordan. To me it looks like Jordan is not quite as strong anymore. I think I might just be spoiled though after seeing Chen Yibing do such difficult moves with no movement. Perhaps Jordan had more difficulty than Yuri though, maybe this is why he placed higher. That is hard for me to tell though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
