Was he a bboy? Flare to handstand was so clean, I thought he was gonna airflare (all hell would've broke loose if he did, I've never see anyone airflare on a pommel horse)

Artemev's routine on the pommel horse is what kept the mens team in medal contention in the team event.

The problem with Alexander Artemev is that he is not constant. Right at the start there was a brief hesitation, and also a few seconds later you can see his legs opening a bit....but then he follows with a brilliant, explosive closing in his routine.

If you want to see a pommel horse that was constant and as perfect as it can get, see Soviet Valentin Mogilny.

What he does on pommel horse, I've never seen any other man do. He makes people get on their feet.

Best pommel ever
