I’m wondering where they got 1.1 in deductions. Her form throughout the whole routine was impeccable. I can see maybe 0.3 off for slow timing between elements and 0.3 off for the dismount (legs apart, feet flexed, didn’t hold stick very long). Where else?? Her toes were pointed on everything else and her legs were straight on everything, as well as hitting complete splits.
This is actually good and for the people who are butt hurt 😂 women are said to better swimmer's and are able to perform this sport better than men. The Open water Swimming project found that Male competitors were later seen to be at odds with the sport due to certain physical characteristics: They were heavier, less flexible - finding leg extensions more difficult - and less buoyant than their female counterparts. It was "soon recognised" that artistic swimming was "better fitted to women" who were "overall more buoyant, in particular in the legs". Now you will say that is sexist. But the truth is artistic swimming has been around for a long time and only now men are allowed only in certain capacity. This is because much like in weight lifting where men have a physical advantage, in swimming, women do. Men will never play this sport in a full team. It will never happen because Male biology. They will drown and die. There is synchronized diving. There is this fusion synchronized thing. They are thinking of allowing 2 to 3 men for artistic swimming as a team. They are "testing the waters". And that's it. They may not go ahead with it. They will never be able to do the full team thing. They will have to only allow more feminine looking lighter males who have better buoyancy. 😂😅 research and then speak.
Never seen a man do this but like ice skating teams, the male appears strong and muscular, should do some lifts of the woman out of the water would be neat! As long as he apears to be the male counterpart
I hate when the announcers & judges find the smallest things to complain about, but i would like to see them do it. Simone is now the greatest gymnast of all time. ❤
There should be a rule or law in sports that if any commentator makes one single peep of voice during a performance, they should be thrown in jail with a $10K fine and banned for life from commenting on sports. Disgusting verbal diarrhea during the entire routine, ruining it for viewers. I hate commentators that cannot keep their mouths shut during the performance. Some kind of envy makes them babble on and on.
