Back when I was competing on the elite circuit, in the early 90's, I can remember a particular incident where I was walking back to my starting point at the top of the vault runway, there was a set of p-bars on the side of the runway, and I thought to myself, " that can't be that hard, if the guys can do it, I know I can", so, I got up on them, and very nonchalantly casted to handstand, and over cooked it, and fell right between those suckers, right on my head. My coach at the time, who happened to be male, said ," yeah....not so easy is it?", and laughed me all the way to the top of the runway, where my ass should've been to begin with. I never tried that again, that's for damn sure. (I learned a valuable lesson that day.....just because I could execute some of the hardest skills being done on the uneven bars for that time dosent mean I could even cast to handstand on a men's event without breaking my neck.....dont try it...it hurts.)
Men's gymnastics has come such a long way since the 1960's. I remember when I was in high school a peach basket to support, a back toss, and a front off were considered difficult moves on the parallel bars. Now they are probably "A" moves.
I wanted to be a gymnast but no school had it even close to where we lived. I love watching them thou. Everyone them are great. No matter what that score says.!!!!
I really don't know why, there might not be a particular reason for that. But I also think they should make the Quintero a G , even better make it a mandatory element, people need to start competing the Quintero :P
It's turns, so how often you turn around your lenght-axis. For example, 1/1 =1 = one Turn. 5/2 = 2,5 = Two and a half turns around your lenght-axis. I hope that explains it :)
Brian The letters "a" - "h" is the difficulty of an element. You get for example for an "a" element 0.1 points and for a "c" element a score of 0.3 points :) The can watch all elements in the Code de Pointage. :)
MrSoBitchy If I can start gymnastics at 18, and with lupus, I think you can do it. I'm eligible for nationals training after a year. Do what makes you happy!
+MrSoBitchy I'm also a college student, so I struggle to find time too. You don't need time set aside to train. Wait for the bus/train in a squat. Wall-sit while waiting for someone. Let poles and bars in the street be things you hang, swing and push off. I study in a push-up position! Your success is determined solely by your effort.

Because men have a very strong upper body. That's y they allocated the Pommel horse, Rings P bar & Horizontal bar for men
there is a reason why mens gymnastics and womens gymnastics compete different events

john meyer I'm pretty sure back toss is a c
front off is A yes 😂

love the soundtrack
1:49 its EPIC how wide he pushes the bars!
2:00 is my favorite skill to watch! Also I've competed on those very parallel bars, haha.
Why don't gymnasts do one arm handstands or planches on this apparatus?
LA GIMNASIA . ¡¡¡QUE HERMOSURA!!
So beautiful and strong💯

Fantastico
Beautiful work
La colonna sonora di Transformers rende il tutto molto epico
Zonderland is the most impressive element!!!!
Hi guys, could you explain me these "fractions"? 1/1, 1/2, 5/2 etc?
It's turns, so how often you turn around your lenght-axis. For example, 1/1 =1 = one Turn. 5/2 = 2,5 = Two and a half turns around your lenght-axis.
I hope that explains it :)
I think Zonderland should be a G cause bad arm healys are hard as af
Hey do you happen to know where I can find the 2012 code if so thank you.
best music and the best videos of the gymnastic, thanks men suscribe :DDD
The double salto forward piked is named a belyavsky

Amazing!
You have some of the skill names wrong
No front double pike?
tsolakidis 1 is G
Wow I am a good gymnast and I can't do that stuff..........yet
quintero should be a G
what are all these "E" "F" and "G" elements ? Please explain
Brian The letters "a" - "h" is the difficulty of an element. You get for example for an "a" element 0.1 points and for a "c" element a score of 0.3 points :) The can watch all elements in the Code de Pointage. :)
Zonderland should be G as well
Nah, I think there are other f moves that are just as difficult
@@Simon-oy7kf dont think so, still epke is the only one who competed zonderland at worlds/euros :)
