Teaching Gymnastics: Meet The Hardest Skills in Men's Gymnastics (2017-2020 CoP) 

Indeed, if you don't know what you're doing you can twist your arm in a bad way.

I have a lot of strength, so rings kinda comes naturally to me, but I'm not flexible like at all, so the hardest for me is floor

@@flipsntricks9143 Same. I’m a rings abad pbars kinda guy.

The Gatson on his Parallel Bars.

@; Rings has always been one of the most awe-inspiring events for me just because of how much strength it takes. I've seen a gymnast that looked as if he could hang on the rings all day lol. High bar is probably the most insane to watch though. Every time I see a flight sequence over the bar, I hold my breath and pray the gymnast doesn't mess up. Seeing falls is terrifying

Mara STEFANIA For me it's cringe, lame and weak.

gottom?

Matthew Myers O boi

Matthew Myers Oj why are you here then? 😂😂😂

Matthew Myers Oj cringe, lame and weak? Lets see you try gymnastics gym rat...

Gerrit Duplessis bro did you just stumble out of the 17th century...

Same bro

That would be really cool to see.

last week I saw a video on instagram of a tumbler who did triple lay out on a tumbling track. I don't think it will ever happen on floor

it's been done in power tumbling, but the spring floor is really short to build up that kind of momentum

Triple layout has been done off high bar just never in international comp. people get tired at the end of their routines. It’s impossible on floor though. It probably would be a i

Yeah doubt trip lay will ever be a thing in gymnastics at least competitively

All of them were brilliant, but Greeks are >10 million :) and why it's a surprise that some of them are good in sports, like gymnastics? on the other hand, It's a matter of school. When the country has good coaches and traditions, it does not matter, how big is it. Small Kosovo won 2 gold medals in Judo last year, in Tokyo Olympics.

@@tamarkapanadze3485 Compared to Russia, China, Japan and the USA, Greece is a very small country. Also, sports are not very promoted and we don't have the facilities that bigger, wealthier countries have.

@@Christina-bs6sw Yes and that indicates about significance of traditions and devotion to sport, ahead of money

½ = Half Turn 1/1 = Full Turn 1½ or 3/2 = one and half turn 2/1 = double turn and the same for the higher numbers as well

Artistics Gymnastics ok thank you, I assumed it was more complicated than fractions😁

Hock Ooi and what do you think he would say? I don't think that asking Max Whitlock is ever going to be an option due to his celebrity status, and I think you know that. I am no celebrity, and am just a lowly 30 something year old woman from the USA, so, I don't think my questions would be a priority to someone like him. So, again, what do you think he might say about It? (That is the best I am going to get, I'm sure.)

Andrea Jimenez I love to watch and compete pommel I think it's boring for spectators but if you understand the movements it's great

Strawhat Devon maybe that's why I don't care to watch it, I don't understand the movements. I never have understood it. I used to see the guys in the gym training it when I was an elite gymnast back in the 90's, and I never could get why they would get on that mushroom looking thing first and then get on the pommel horse and do the same thing they did on the mushroom. I don't see what is going on with the pbars either. I can remember one time in particular, I had just got done training a new tumbling pass, and on the walk back to the other end of the floor, I decided that I was going to try and jump up on the pbars and see if I could do it. (I was thinking "this can't be any harder than the bars set I already do, I got this", God almighty was I wrong) I got up there, casted to handstand, over cooked it, and had no idea what to do, so, I just fell straight down thru the pbars, and face planted. My coach, who was a retired male gymnast was laughing hysterically, and saying "just bc it looks easy, dosent mean it is."

I think it's because pommel horse is the hardest to train ...and I've heard this from male gymnasts too so i'm not making it up :P I like watching pommel BECAUSE I don't understand it, like how is it physically possible to do those things...the smallest hand misplacement or slowing/speeding up of your rhythm can throw you off, try doing a few rounds of those one day.

Andrea Jimenez Pommel horse is basically the balance beam for men. Everyone hates it the most, except some exceptions like Max Whitlock. It's easy to mess up on it.

light light όντως

Δεν έχει άσκηση με το όνομα του, τουλάχιστον όχι ακόμα. Ελπίζω στο μέλλον να κατοχυρώσει κάποια άσκηση γιατί είναι το μοναδικό που δεν έχει καταφέρει και σίγουρα είναι ικανός να το κάνει!

Yeah, I thought the same, but when I read the code of points its exactly like this: 30. Salto arrière tendu avec 4/1 t. Salto bwd. str. with 4/1 t. Mortal atrás ext. con 4/1 g. (Shirai / Nguyen)

Artistics Gymnastics Ngyuen Tuan Dat is credited with it but I can't seem to find any videos of him doing it ...

How are the naming rules in MAG anyway? I've seen lots of skills are named after two gymnasts, but they don't have to do it at Worlds to have it named after and it would be too much of a coinsidence that two gymnasts would do it at the same competition.

Alchamei Marcel Nguyen and Kenzo Shirai both did it and got it named around the same time

Yes, but leaving pbars backwards is really weird, and you cant gain height like you do with front dismounts. You do get the benifit of faster spin like you always do with backwards saltos, so thats why

@@justaguy1182 oh that makes sense. Thanks, I'm not a gymnast, I assumed that dismounts on pbars were like the other apparatuses.

halビンズ Dmitri Lankin, 2017 Euros.

Thank you! I want to see him in world championships and olympics!

It doesn't actually look too good for him, at least for this year again. He's good, but sometimes inconsistent and mainly Russia has stronger guys than him, so he doesn't get sent.

Is that triple the hardest skill in this compilation?

It’s not

Many gymnasts suffer from bad joints later in life

it is not. my knees hurt constantly

After the Rio olympics, the "Radivilov" was banned cause' it was to dangerous and hard to perform

Double Bwd Tuck with 2½ Twist

This is about the hardest skills in Code of Points 2017-2020. I hope Lefteris get a skill named after him,soon. That's the only thing he hasn't accomplished, yet.

Historically, sexism. As simple as that. The uneven bars were originally so that women could step on the lower bar to grip the higher bar easier without strain, for example.

Magdalena Moss Don't play the sexism card please.

Alchamei If anything I said is wrong, feel free to refute it with actual arguments.

emlrob yeah but back then woman weren’t so strong(but now they’ve caught up) and its also because men can generate more power. Oh also because its women’s artistic gymnastics and men aren’t that artistic. Just look at their floor routines its just tumbling. Those are just my thoughts though.

Ashley Yoon But men aren't trained to be artistic in the first place, and that's why their tumbling is like that or am I wrong?

Seems logical,didn't know that.Thanks!

I actually had to go look it up too.... But it got me chuckling for a sec there

The same concept as with "Zanetti", they named it after the athlete 'inventor'.

Zahran too

Well some of them

Well it's not perfect but it's a zanetti

はーい👌

You should drink less if you are thinking of pommeling a horse.

Men are pretty flexible too lol.Women are just more agile and more precise in their skills.Even though men and women are powerful.in my opinion men have to be more careful cause they are built differently

Umm No. The girls cannot do this

Some People I don’t think girls could do rings that well... just based on biology they would struggle getting so much strength

Because everyone can play football (i mean soccer)

Because you don't appreciate just how much physical strength is required to do half of these moves

@@bluehornet197 I knew a kid in high school who did gymnastics and other guys would pick on him because it wasn't "masculine" and was "for girls". Meanwhile the guy is ripped, legs like tree trunks and every muscle defined.

Hahahaha

Ya, I was noticing that too. I caught at least 1 on rings and i think a few on HB too.

Will Culp A lot got mixed after the update

bc their all easy...

Haha just kidding, I'm really curious as well!

Actually is the only apparatus I didn't know really well, so I decide do not include in this video because I 'd might do something wrong.

Amelia Soto pommel horse is boring af.

Jackson Catlett OK?
