The World Games 2009, Kaohsiung TPE Acro Gymnastics

[HalfofMyInnerme]

I just have one question:

This routine looks almost exactly as the one they did in 2010 where they won gold medal. Can someone explain the little details that made this one not as good to win gold medal here too? ( i know this one is older)

[mandaz96]

well..uh...holy sh*t 0.0

[MarQBolt]

Thats savage!! Are u the top or base????

[Katmarie100]

@MarQBolt He's the top!

[wayshow4]

[icecraze02]

[MissEliane123]

You make it look so easy but it's not :)

[Zeldalynn]

Britain's Got Talent is a great thing... it's drawn more people to acro. It's such an amazing sport, I hope it gets the attention it deserves. Incredible focus. :D

[limbado]

Superb!

[TheLucyx17x]

omgg! edward me and my bestfriend lousie think you are really really fit, you met us yesterday at yoour tour in staines . we were the first two there xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[shahibullah1967]

Amazing, certainly BGT has done a lot to this sport. Now those who doesnt even know this sport exist watches it again and again. They are nice couple. The coach is terrific

[Pook365]

@filigrie As I thought, they are in no way professional, There is an article on The Mirror's website that spells it all out.

For some reason youtube won't let me link the article, google "Britain's Got Talent winner's Spelbound want to be in Olympics" and it's the first link.

[Zeebee666]

You both have amazing muscles!! I saw them on BGT, let's just say it wasn't just the gymnastics that had me spelbound ;) x

[filigrie]

Bristain's paid little attention to the World Games. That's why they thought Spelbound's performance is exclusive in Bristain's Got Talent show. Professional sportsmen shouldn't have entered amateur's talent competition. It's unfair.

[JodieRoxSox99]

@filigrie I disagree with that. They work hard at what they do, so why don't they deserve to get recognition for it ? Diversity, similarly worked hard, and they had been entering Dance Competitions before BGT, so I don't really see the difference ?

[filigrie]

I mean it may be unfair for amateur contender in BGT if professionals and amateurs do not have their own separate contest and recognition. The separative contest system is not uncommon in quite a few areas since they are not competing on the same ground. You are right in a sense that if BGT didin't restrict professional entry, it may very well be its legitimate game rule.

[Pook365]

@filigrie ...but are they actually "professional"? The majority of people who compete in the Olympics for instance are not, they have other jobs or school/collage or both.

[anotherutterance]

@filigrie Britains got talent is not a competion for just amateurs. Every other person that auditions is making a living out of what they do.

[Katmarie100]

@filigrie The definintion of a Professional is someone who gets paid on a full time basis to do something. Before winning Britain's Got Talent, none of the acrobats in Britain's Got Talent got paid to do it, in fact funding their training, costumes and competition trips via other full time jobs or via their parents if they are at school. So by definition, not Professionals. They're hard working athletes who put in a lot of training and have talent.

[JodieRoxSox99]

this is pure awesomeness.

congrats on BGT, i hope it leads you to things even better!

[lilmonsterguurl]

WOOOW You're amazing! I can't even do a backwards roll properly! :L But I can do the splits! :) Congrats on BGT by the way :D

[ShockWarriors]

Wow you two are both really good :) Excellent stuff

[norabattythe3rd]

are these guys in spellbound, that was on last weeks BGT? fantastic either way...

[lilmonsterguurl]

@norabattythe3rd yes they are two members of spelbound :D

[KissLizzy1]

Amazing! I like it!=)

What music it is?

[acrofreak]

the skills are EXTREMELY clean along with the choreography

[xtwistr77]

Respect! Wow, acro needs more exposure.

I hope you got to visit the night markets and enjoy some of the food. I spent a year in Taiwan and loved (most of) the food!

[OnLyBeLLa2oo6]

this guys are ALWAYS amazing! i totally love them, they're great!

[ymanganelli]

That was amazing:) Bravo ^.^

[acrofreak]

a mens pair from my region uses this music...they are nothing compared to these 2.

[gregr583]

wow ur routine is amazing , i do sports acro its so good.

[Kthoma98]

i used to be in acrobatics gymnastics but I quit cause of school.

[psykosel]

i love watching this, u dont see any of it on tv. in california. i could watch this sort of stuff all day. i wish i started earlier in life to bend that well

[chonitodancer]

Only 6315 views? You guys deserve a helluva lot more! Suggestion (more applicable to an artistic presentation but...): I've noticed you do very obvious segments where there's gymnastics, and then dancing. I suggest a smoother transition & balance between dancing and acrobatics so that they are better complementing each other & not seeming so segregated. But then again, like I said, not really applicable in an event that demands obvious segments of gymnastics. -_- You guys only won silver!?

[eddyupcott]

Yes, only 6,315 views... This sport has no publicity what so ever...

We had Bronze at this competition!

We won Silver at the European championships 3 months after this competition!!

[conorjc24]

[lileichina96]

Well done, that was great! You dont know me but i was there in Spelthorne as a friend of Niels doin some routine work. Goood luck with Europeans!

[bill08033]

WOW!!! You guys are great -- a winning combination of strength, agility, and movement. Thanks for sharing.

[SSFluffy]

That is the kind of performance where sport becomes art.

Where us ordinary folk watch in amazement and dream we could do such things.

For a moment, we leave our lives behind and fly with you.

Beautiful routine lads.

Thanks for all the hard work that you put into your training.

[OnLyBeLLa2oo6]

You are so AMAZING! My favorites for Europeans ;D

2:30!! Unbelievable
