Great floor routine by Charlie Tamayo

[MrClaudialovesyou]

And who ever commented below... He's not black

[MrClaudialovesyou]

I miss Charlie!!!!!

[mrjavawy]

0:26 is that Dan Wood 2nd from the left in the suit???

[69bhabes]

@mrjavawy holy crap i think it is

[TheKRippledKhemist]

i dont understand why he dismounts with a C..

[MrTubeeer99]

I bet he can dunk a basketball. with his foot.. upside-down, in mid air while doing a flip...

[piano67859]

1) Double twisting double back tucked

2) 2.5 twisting back layout - punch front - punch front full

3) Double twisting front layout

4) Double back piked

Not an overly difficult routine. Certainly up there though. Very powerful, very light in the air and near stuck landings.

[spielkind1987]

Ah, black people.

[peaceluvcheer97]

Why hasn't he been to the olympics yet????? hes amazing!!!!

[ahoyFlippers]

he wasnt really trying to make it look hard dude... it was an exhibition

[THEDubbleHelixx]

PSH. Forget 'execution and poise'. Despite any one's likely undeserved pompousness, this man is AMAZING. Is he even human?

I for one am glad this is posted, and the title is an understatement. I've never seen anything like it. I doubt there IS anything like it. SOME people need to peddle their arrogance elsewhere and stop trolling the comment page.

Bravo.

[conradtwchow]

@THEDubbleHelixx hmmmm, i guess you haven't seen the men's national team...

[nathan1hughes1]

@THEDubbleHelixx ... Kohei Uchimura... Nuff said

[midgetmaster888]

That wasn't that great of a routine, he needs more difficulty

[Peaceplatform]

@midgetmaster888 - um, a double double and a forward triple twist isn't enough for you?!

[CassidyMcComb2010]

@Peaceplatform

there is no forward triple twist i didnt even see any forwarrd tumbling pass if he did do one and i missed it it was a double at the most

[Peaceplatform]

@CassidyMcComb2010 - well the forward twisting pass is so quick I can't really be sure. Either way his technique is amazing. And the 2.5 punch front punch front full is also rather nifty!

[markedexclusive]

Is he aiming for London in 2012? He's awesome...I saw a video of him doing a triple arabian!!!

[3DGymnast]

did he do a triple back at the end??

[davethetracer94]

@3DGymnast double pike

[D4RkM0e]

no... double.

[raydredX]

@3DGymnast

nope O:

still great

[throbule]

Another jumping faggot......

[bboytaz123]

isnt he missing an element group?

[bunnyman1245]

@bboytaz123 this was the old code

[conradtwchow]

@bboytaz123 yup, an arabian

[1415raiders]

hes amazinggg.....he gets so much height...

[MrTsukGym]

I love our double pike

[ant630]

that kid has springs in his legs for sure

[jennaandamanda09]

yaaaaaa flocking sweet

[cCuTiE1234]

awesome

[Hotgoblinn]

hm nice^^

[jihel974]

Did he do the triple twist in front ??

[conidi2]

no only full

[jihel974]

I mean in the side pass..?? it was a double twist in front or a triple ??

[simpleman33]

double.

[conidi2]

yeh double twist

he did a full in the 2nd tumble

[ben1996123]

can he do a triple back flip? on the floor?

[scarface677]

are there springs in those exercise floors?

[TsubasaDreams]

The floor is sprung but like the springboard and vaulting tables they don't actually 'spring' a gymnast into the air they absorb the shock which allows the gymnast to punch off harder.

[scarface677]

good to know, ty :)

[conidi2]

no but there is foam

[charltes]

ok dd8yf for you info tha rutine is made with only 2 months of trainning and is about 3 year ago thank you you will see charlie tamayo soon thank you

[dd8yf]

I know.

Hence why I explicitly said "[a]lthough not built for the new Code . . . ".

And I'm looking forward to judging Tamayo. I know he's good; I'm just providing a breakdown of the routine on video.

[dd8yf]

(Disclaimer: nationally-certified men's judge)

Although not built for the new Code, here's the current breakdown on the routine:

Double double tuck E

Back 2.5, front tuck, front 1/1 D+A+C

Front 2/1 D

Russian 900 B

Straddle planche A

Double back pike C

[dd8yf]

Difficulty:

1 E = 0.5

2 D = 0.8

2 C = 0.6

1 B = 0.2

4 A = 0.4

total = 2.5

Categories: missing IV, partial dismount = 1.8

D-score: = 2.5 + 1.8 + 0.1 (connection) = 4.4

Also, some simple steps that would be deducted 0.1 each.

[mizzin]

Irylin probably ment 0:17 which is a roll :)

[litllebuff4848]

i thought everything was solid except his last pass. a double pike? why wouldnt he atleast do a double layout?

[eccentricemily]

ther is no 1:17

[Lnicker]

I think they meant 0:17, when he does a forward roll :)

[Irylin]

I can do 1:17 ..... :D!!!!

[enerqi]

this guy is amazing!!!!! he taught me how to do my full at woodward haha... he does things people havent even heard of and its incredible!

[uwoeric]

Yeah in training, but in this competitive routine he does some pretty standard things for this level.

[dirtyjobbing]

whatever u say kid. let me know next time you're at woodward west and we'll meet up with charlie so he can show u what's up. or at nationals this year when the optional boys team that i coach comes and stomps all over you... oh wait, you don't know shit and probably will never make it to JO nationals. sorry.

[SOM3Vi3T]

pretty high jumps/

[namineofsilent]

its obama!

[KatBrittCool]

this is amazing! I love gymnastics! hahaha

[willsbob123]

I would give this routine, 9.500 out of 10.000 :) great job!!! :)

[electriczero22]

holy crap he kicked out his double pike

[doglover12321]

wat song was that? i remember it from somewhere but i dont remember he name of it!!!!!!!! plz someone tell me!!!

[nathanattwell16]

love dont cost a thing - jeniffer lopez.

[JPJAMAL38]

Don't get me wrong, Charlie performed some very nice tumbling passes. But this isn't a great floor exercise. He didn't stick a single landing, and he didn't even hold his planche. Pretty cool for the average person to watch, but not a great routine.

[coldnate]

you must be new to the sport. you're a pretentious, pompous asshole. charlie is one of the best tumblers in the world, and you just put that routine down... do you know anything about gymnastics???? and he held his planche for long enough. you only need 2 seconds, so why hold longer and waste energy?

[daboss1221]

he is right and you need to get over yourself

[coldnate]

whatever u say kid. let me know next time you're at woodward west and we'll meet up with charlie so he can show u what's up. or at nationals this year when the optional boys team that i coach comes and stomps all over you... oh wait, you don't know shit and probably will never make it to JO nationals. sorry.

[daboss1221]

it is irrelevent how good he is or isn't. this was not a spectacular routine. gymnasts at that level all have tricks, it is about the execution and poise. As a fellow coach you should know this. by the way i won nationals on the highbar when i was 17. i am not sure who you are intimidating but the rules of gymnastics doesnt change. 'A floor routine by charlie tomayo' that would be more appropriate. another video with better execution would allow the present name. until then dont troll youtube

[daboss1221]

i counted 7 tenths of deductions. these are from the cop. if you would like me to recite these deductions just ask.

[coldnate]

oh shut up you pretentious douche. how many congresses have you attended? how many judges clinics? that's what i though. zero. coach? okay good job you can tell rec kids to go do straight jumps on the tumbl trak. let me know when your team boys and girls compete with the likes of steve and steven rybacki's. have fun googling who they are.

[jojo1802]

Damn, what crawled up your ass and died??

Actually, you are the one that's looking like the douchebag right about now. Just saying that's all.

[dd8yf]

Nothing. I'm a men's judge, I judge routines. Just neutrally commenting on Tamayo's routine in the video.

I have no problem with Tamayo at all. I've seen his routines in person, and they're awesome. All I did was provide a breakdown of the video for those interested.

Part of the problem with civil discourse (or lack thereof) is that, in seeking to reply, people don't read the entirety of comments.

[daboss1221]

i have attended many coaches clinics and go to 'jump fest' every year. this is a summer program much like woodward. jordan jovtchev goes (or has gone) and through this i know him pretty well. if he had a poor or average routine, which happens, i would say so, without hesitation. i know charlie is good but that has nothing to do with the discussion. look at it objectively and you will see.

[jesstar05]

actually YOU must be new to the sport. I've been watching his training videos and he is certainly an amazing gymnast and does things than many gymnasts wouldn't even dream of doing. But after watching those videos and seing the title here i was thinking i'd watch something phenominal, but this is what you can expect from most elite gymnasts from around the world and i expected more. Don't abuse me for saying that, because it is true. I may not coach World champions but my opinion is a valid one.

[neo124]

get owned

[natcomber13]

The best gymnasts in the world don't stick double doubles every time, and the planche was held for adequately long enough.

[daboss1221]

i agree with you

[C4PT41NCRUNK]

AMAZING!

[Raghav91]

where do you get his videos from?

[SilverDollarCityGirl]

he is really good!

[mdvmorgan]

why is he wearing socks?

[mdvmorgan]

nvm

[sisamuth13]

lol

[Yournameonmyass]

they are tumbling shoes

[chartlesrocks]

Charle is trying to get his citizenship so he can compete. The process is taking longer than it should and may keep him from being able to compete. We are trying to convince a US Senator to sponsor private legislation. Would anyone be interested in signing a petition of support?

[Anteros05]

I'd definitely sign. The current attitude towards discrimination is despicable. I know there was special legislation used to allow Tanith Belbin (ice dancer) her citizenship to compete for USA. Something about "special abilities" consideration? Would that work for Charlie?

[chartlesrocks]

We're working on "private legislation" but not having much luck.  Senator Feinstein wasn't interested and now we're working with Senator Ken Salazar, but this is a tough climate politically to try and get private legislation on an immigration issue. If I get a petition together I'll let you know

[charltes]

thank u guys for all u comment , but i think  i have 2 be good i want 2 go to competition again and show the real charlie tamayo merry christmas and happy new year 2 every body love charlie

[PeaceLoveTati]

hahaha in the b egining...OMG.hahaha

[gymrat474]

keep up the good work!!your awesome!!hope your in the olympics someday :]

[gymluva]

good comments...he is the highest MALE tumbler i have seen in the us so far. i am hoping to be the first person EVER to perform a double FRONT LAYOUT on floor in women's gymnastics. if u think its not possible, u r just jealous cuz u wont get 2 do it 1st!haha

[gymanst5619]

A girl has already done an arabian double layout. SRRY you LOSE

[GymFreak28]

yep Daine dos Santos from brazil competed it in the 2004 olympics.... it was amazing!!!

[Anteros05]

No offense, but she said double front layout, not arabian double front layout.

[GymFreak28]

yeezz my bad but it was still amazing hahahaha:P

[AARcrazzy]

ah no you lose!!! she did an arabian double PIKE not LAYOUt!!!! you lose

[MicrosoftIndesign]

dude, what the fuck did he do on the first pass? was that a full double backtack?

[TroyCWright]

A double twisting double tuck

[bohatyville]

you r so asewm i wish i was like u!!!! u schould make tee shirts with your name and pic. u could be a millonar!!!!!

xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

hailey bohaty

[roger555]

well at least you know how to spell your name right

[bohatyville]

bit me.

[tringold34]

carly patterson is better

[teecrew]

hah you have no idea what you're talking about

[LFDYGymnast]

[teecrew]

[xGymnastx0]

[daberkeber]

[NastiaFan101]

This is good, but if they're amazed by that, I'd love to see their reaction to International Elites like Hypolito and Dragulescu

[mrparke007]

This is a CLUB team, which isn't supposed to be at the elite level. The skills that he's competing are way beyond the abilities of most club athletes. I LOVE his arabian double layout. That's one skill that I doubt any man will compete at the elite level.

[NastiaFan101]

I hate to burst your bubble, but Daiane Dos Santos of Brazil, Todd Thornton did it at 2006 US Nationals, and Diego Hypolito debuted a double pike arabian full-out, this guy is still amazing though, he was a medallist on vault at 2001 Worlds

[mrparke007]

Let me rephrase what I said... I doubt any one will compete this skill WELL at the elite level. Dos Santos's Arabian dlo was only performed well once... and I'm pretty sure she's stopped competing it. I think Tamayo should start training again for elites. He's amazing.

[teecrew]

he can't because he's not a US citizen

[mrparke007]

God... what a shame. That guy's awesome.

[roger555]

what would him not being a us citizen have to do with him going elite....have you ever heard of the olympics? thats when people from all over the world do gymnastics together...and a lot of those people are not us citizens. i really hope i just misunderstood what your trying to say

[teecrew]

ha you're so good at sarcasm, eric. he was exiled from cuba and now he lives in the states but since he's not a US citizen, he can't be on the US National team and by the time he gets his citizenship, he'll be too old to do anything he used to do anyway.

[roger555]

ok like i said i hoped i was just misunderstanding

[GirlFighter2010]

ok he is really hott and very sexy but he is a good gymnast

[michelledocampo]

hesss amazing... i saw a video of him once doing a idk even know what u call that but 5 flips forwards off a tramp it was amazing...

[roundoffback]

do anyone have the video of skill TAMAYO ( 1/2 twist to double front layout) its spelled exactly same with his name TAMAYO ( i think he did it .. did he? )

[saltocafe]

yes look at the rest of my videos

[roundoffback]

thx..really thx.. i saw tat skill on book .. omfg..he really did tat? thx alot ..

[daberkeber]

first yes he invented this skill (the tamayo)and i also have a video of someone doing it just right "gael de silva"on youtube and take the 4th video .hope you will enjoy .bye bye love you xxx tits

[CrazyFreerunner]

crazy

[bboyagua]

this dude is badass

[gymast350H]

hmm ive seen him do better russians other than that hes amazing

[jimsun51]

i was wondering if anyone else noticed that, i mean i cant do better routine but when your in the sport of gymnastics you always spot the one thing that doesnt seem up to the same standard

[Pebblez45]

woah he gets a lot of air in the first tumbling pass...

[ricardomartinez]

WooW That´s Impressive Congrats to you
