2008 Acrobatic World Championships, Glasgow

The final combined routine of Mark Fyson and Edward Upcott performed at the 2008 FIG Acrobatic World Championships in Glasgow, GBR. Also with highlights from the senior men's pair medal ceremony. Filmed at the Kelvin Hall International Sports Arena.

Bronze - Great Britain: Upcott and Fyson from Great Britain opened with cut through one arm, to flag, pop to hands, with full twist to shoulders, executed brilliantly. The men showed strength in balance as well, with Upcott's perfect planche looking solid. An amazing performance in front of a home crowd who more than showed their full support to the men from Spelthorne Elite Acrobatics - 28.503.

Silver - Russia 1: Pilipchuk and Dudchenko held together their difficult one arm combination, like they have done in qualifications, making tricky work look easier than it is. The Pairs, one arm straddle down on head impressed the audience, as did their double twisting straight from pitch - 28.609.

Gold - Ukraine - Second World title, after Coimbra'06: The Ukrainian pair, Cherbak and Popov, performed their routine well and had the required height their dynamic elements, which all looked sharp, in what is turning out to be a very tough final - 28.662.
