  • Very complete montage, but where is the piked jump ? (I don't know if that still exists, but Amanar was doing one)

  • It is not in the code of points anymore, no pike jumps are for floor exercise so I assume the FIG want to discourage them (not that many people did them anyway)

  • Great music and great content. What is the title of the music? It is just lovely. Out of curiosity, how does one technically describe a tour jete?

  • Music is: Maksim Mrvica Somewhere in Time / The Old Woman.

    The code describes a Tour Jete as: Fouette Hop with leg change to

    cross split (leg separation 180°) to

    land on one foot

  • I just was never sure with the very last jump by Gogean. I always felt like she cheated a bit on it...

  • Thank you very much for this (and all the other CoP-guides you have done)!

    Now, when you you have time...could you do a guide on UB close-bar work? With explanations?

    Please?

    It is quite difficult to tell the difference between all those moves (esp. in live situations...) - for me, anyway.

  • my friend has a 5.3 dificult in her routine she is want to add 0:26 to her routine and she wants to know how much it would up her difficulty. Please Reply Back someone.Thanks

  • Is the Johnson switch split named after Shawn Johnson?

  • difference between a tour jete and a switch split 1/2 ?? =/

  • @Gymnasticseverywhere In dance, a cat leap is called an axel turn, but I think it may be a teeny bit different because axels are done with tighter passe. A reverse leap in dance would be if you turned your torso 180 in the air but your legs did not switch. In other words, you start off leaping foreward with a right leg split and end up in a left leg split going backwards or vice versa. In both dance and gymnastics, a tour jete (french for turn leap) involves a turn and a switch.
