[joaopauloloures]

Anyway see that JOHNSON Shawn = Shawn Johnson , CHENG Fei = Fei Cheng, HYPOLITO Diego = Diego Hypolito the order of tractors not affect the viaduct ... dãã ¬¬

[kiwigymnast16]

it funny they say "just 20 years old" well in women's gymnastics, you're really really old if your 20!!!!

@AtlanteanxPrincess

Because Shawn Johnson and Cheng Fei never stick it cold like Zou Kai did. Plus, it is riskier for guys to do double saltos because:

A) They're worth less for guys than girls

and

B) Unlike girls they get deducted if they step out of it.

perfection.

[t3hgelar]

amazing what he does but his landings are so unstable if you take away the moves he does right after to cover for it, is it that men are allowed to be unstable?

[FlicTuckFull]

@CopGymnast861

Not in Beijing they didn't.

[PoorPublicSchoolKid]

cutest guy gymnast evarr :3

[hatsuharuboi]

@kiwigymnast16

It's because the phisical peak of the male's body is after 20's (for gimnastic)

[marushk161]

@Arcteryx2886 It was allowed to do so until 2008. All those rules were presented in the 2009 code.

[machaca111]

Have this floor trampoline?

[Musicaddict2209]

meh diego hypolito shouda won if he hadnt fallen

[johan4klyo]

Medalla de ORO!

[JOHNCENASTF4LIFE]

this guy is my idol

[MGGC123]

He cant land anything so he just jumps to support !

[gymadict]

he deserved this one

[Arcteryx2886]

anybody feel free to answer this, but he went in the same line to 4 corners: that is: he went back and forth 2 times, i thought you couldnt do 3 passes in the same/reverse direction. I thought after u did 2 passes, back and forth, u had to go to a corner or off to the middle side of the floor, and if not u got deduction?

[tontongymnastics]

he was better than gervasio deferr and he deserve the gold.

[wikct2]

@uwoeric He deserve every point of the scores he got.

[LMA629]

@uwoeric of course they were. China was the hosting country.

[uwoeric]

Those execution scores are way too high.

[LaVoix555]

AMAZING FLOOR! Well earned gold medal!

[LaVoix555]

@kiwigymnast16 It is so interesting how different gymnastics is between women and men. If a woman does such skills at a much younger age, she will never get such praise

[bookiewormie1]

@AtlanteanxPrincess harder floor

[gymnastguy328]

@DrAlexisOlson the third roll out/jump to prone is a 0.3 deduction

[DrAlexisOlson]

@DuhustBus000 Was the roll-out rule changed too? The current code simply says that "a gymnast may use a maximum of two" such elements. Whether they are counted towards the top 10 valued skills is not mentioned (the connection bonus rules on the other hand specifically address this).

I thought this rule was to prevent gymnasts from avoiding having to stick the landing by ending every pass with a dive roll or some jump to front support.

For the life of me I can't find the old Code of Points.

[DuhustBus000]

@DrAlexisOlson For your first observation about roll-out elements, his jumps to prone did not count because they were not counted in his E-score and they are not valued elements. For your second observation, after these olympics, the new COP for WAG and MAG banned gymnasts from using the same diagonal more than twice in a row, otherwise they receive .3 penalty. But during this code, it was okay. In fact both the men's and woman's floor champions used the same diagonal for the first three passes!
