Just wanna know the difference between the old style(yuri chechi's) maltese and the new maltese(chen yibing's). which is harder??

Also is chechi's maltese considered wrong compared to yibing's? And will points be deducted for chechi's maltese :)

Yuri Chechi, I believe, did not do his with a hollow body. Hollow body is superior. It looks better and it's harder.

John Dalton

Yeah i thought so too :)

But what about Carmona's maltese? And are points deducted for a non-hollow maltese??

Gregor

Hardest is in perfect line! Few techniques and only those without deductions matters. if both are without deduction then harder is most probably those wich you do not do in exercise. For me is his for him it's mine.

John Dalton

I don't understand your last line Gregor....

Gregor

For me it's harder his variation, for him it's harder my variation. So it's wrong to say wich is harder (if without deduction) because all choose the one wich suits him the best (so wich is easier to him).

Gregor's saying that because he trains a certain style, the other is a bit harder for him because his body is not conditioned for the other style to the same degree. Same goes for the other guy, Chechi I would think.
