I will Yea it's great score, but in finals for medal, I'm afraid not good enough.In finals he will compeet with belle, so A score will be 16,8 and not 16,6.I hope on your television you have whole gymnastics. We have just small insert, because we have quite alot of competitors at the same time.So I didn't see any chinese gymnast almost nobody in final on p.bars.

Gregor Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 With belle 16,8.from bent arm support ( on biceps not bent arm support)jump to stradle press to handstand, basket (felge??)360°, basket, basket 180°, tucked belle,tipelt, heally, ju jutsu, peters, stradle salto forward to bent support, jump to stradle press to handstand and double piked backward.It's not that high A score like koreians and chinese, but is more cleaner.So I hope for best.

Edward Smith Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 P-bars routines amaze me, the way they do somersault landing in a handstand or from swinging through (from below the bars) and land in a straddle L-sit. They are just amazing. Best of luck to him Gregor!Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJoll Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 swinging through (from below the bars) and land in a straddle L-sit.That's what particularly amazes me the most, although that's probably because I can relate to it the most, as I've tried straddle L-sits on the floor and know just how badly it would end if I tried to jump into one on bars. Everything else (other than handstand presses) are a bit of an unknown quantity so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 Sadly Mitja made a bad mistake with heally and he ended fifth on olympics. Without that mistake he would be second and silver medal would be his.We are still proud of him!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Valentin Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 That is a shame. At least Li Xioapeng won, who clearly showed the best P-bars routine.Beutifull work. However i have to say i feel stink for Mitja because he is so so so good as well. Has he won a Olympic gold before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 No, none olympic medals....He said he will try for 2012 in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Valentin Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Wicked.. Hopefully he will upgrade his Routine or something. I dont think 4 more years of the same routine would be to much fun. Than again...haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 In new code of points for the next olympic cycle, piked and tucked Belle will go down for one tense, and it will be only one execution of saltos allowed (piked or tucked). So with that changes he will have even more badass exercise compare to others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Sommer Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Still an Outstanding AccomplishmentFifth in the Olympics is still an outstanding accomplishment and something to be very proud of. Once again, please extend my congratulations to Mitja for an excellent effort.There is an International Jr Team Cup in Germany next March that I am currently planning on taking Allan to; will any of your students be competing there?Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 I will extend..Of course is great succses but he is disapointet, he wanted more as he is a curently world champion. He changed exercise at the end, after heally he should made a ju jitsu, but they throw it away. So he wanted to make a heally a little slower and then he made THE MISTAKE (sholder where a little bit to much out of the line).I don't know, beacuse it's not in my hands...For that is responsibly our junior national coach if we will go there. then if they decide that we can go, then there comes a team selection....Congrats to JOHNATHON HORTON to coach, great succsess. Wery nice cassina element and double streched 1080° 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
