His dad is fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Gillies Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Please excuse my ignorance of competitive gymnastics, but why does Allan perform routines that are easier than he is capable of? E.g. No maltese or inverted crosses during the rings routine. Is it a case of conserving energy since there are so many events, or is it that each competition calls for a certain level of difficulty based on who he is competing against, or that he is capable of more difficult elements in training but is not yet ready to perform them in competition?Thanks,Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Execution is the other. You must balance these to get the best score possible. This is part of the strategy of gymnastics and is especially important for an all around competitor like Allan. If you used the highest difficulty you could possibly muster you may not be able to perform them all perfectly and may fatigue or fall. Also this was a prelim competition. Sometimes people will save some harder skills for the finals if they think they need to risk lower execution to have a chance at a higher overall score.

Alan Tseng Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 By the way, I'm just wondering is Allan's Rings routine in the finals the same routine as the 2013 P&G Championships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Dano Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Allan, 11th! Congrats. This is very good. First year senior. Don't forget to mention Silver on Pommel Horse! Congrats Allan! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mats Trane Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Don't forget to mention Silver on Pommel Horse! Congrats Allen!Wow! Didn´t notice this. This is fantastic! Pommels is considered by most gymnsts to be the hardest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Burnham Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Wow! Didn´t notice this. This is fantastic! Pommels is considered by most gymnsts to be the hardest.Yes. Especially in the US. It will be interesting to see how his pommel is affected as he starts picking up a bit more ring strength. His swing certainly looks good! Must have had a decent developmental coach growing up .

Matthew Barrett Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 For those interested in tumbling. Eddie Penev. His technical execution of those tumbling passes was near flawless. Awesome floor routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
