Coach Sommer Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 ydf5TKYJGZg A nicely done routine; both in terms of performance and construction. The mount is a back kip to maltese. The next sequence is lower from maltese to back lever and immediately press back to planche. Notice the new emphasis on inverted cross work. Also the new rule changes only allow 4 strength parts in a row before they must be followed by a swinging element. The only issue with the routine is a relatively weak dismount.The final results on Still Rings were:1. Yuri van Gelder NED (6.6) 15.850 2. Dimosthenis Tambakos GRE (6.7) 15.700 3. Danny Pinheiro-Rodrigues FRA (6.7) 15.600 4. Eleftherios Petrounias GRE (6.4) 15.250 5. Irodotos Georgallas CYP (6.9) 15.150 6. Samir Ait Said FRA (6.7) 15.075 7. Koen van Damme BEL (5.7) 13.850 8. Eduard Gholub ISR (5.2) 12.700Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Sutherland Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Wow, only a C dismount. I know he had to pike down the 1/1 quite a bit to make it around but I'm still surprised to see him take the .2 for the less difficult dismount. I'm not sure that the swing after 4 strength rule works all that well when a muscled yamawaki counts as a swing.Glad to see Yuri still competing, I think he has the best swing to strength elements in the world. They all come in with pretty much no rise above the final hold position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thomas Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 His dismount has always been the weakest link in his routine.He's been working hard at improving it for some weeks now, to get a REAL doubled layed out full for the next competition.I'm surprised he won with this score though, a 15.850 is not that high for a ring final..

Gregor Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Basicly are same deduction as before for him. Lower scores are because of much lower E score (formerly A score) and for new, much harsher deductions for holds:0,3 if hold is slightly less then 2seconds.So if he will add o,3 for dismount he'll have 6.9, same goes for Danny (7.0, but till now he always compensate his dismount with victorian difficulty, he will had to change the dismount now!).It will be close between Gelder and Vorobyov. Anbody knows if Safoshkin is well and if he will compeet at European Championships??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregor Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Can anybody else do the maltese backlever to planche?

matthew.percussion Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I would like to see from backlever 2s press to maltese, I know it's in the code of points, but I never saw it.I've thought about that, but I think I'd prefer back lever planche(through maltese).

Gregor Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I saw the video on youtube and he is not doing it!!! He uses bounce and that is code of point E value, F is with hold back lever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
