6/9/2010

WTF?! This gymnast was winding up for a snap down back tuck dismount and pinged. She was very lucky not to get seriously hurt. Via Saltocafe.




WTF? Viachaslav Kruilov’s original jam dislocate combo. Sadly, this was the only event he hit, placing a dismal 26th AA of 29 gymnasts at the 1990 Cottbus Cup. On a side note, Christy Henrich (RIP)was scheduled to compete, but had to pull out due to the “flu.” We now know it was something completely different. Henrietta Onodi won on the women’s side.




WTF?! Lou Yun, was born in Hangzhou, the capital of East China's Zhejiang Province on June 23, 1964. He was easily the 80’s best gymnast on FX and V, winning gold at both world championships and the Olympic Games. He was also the first gymnast to perform a layout rudi on V. Luo was on the Chinese national team for an impressive 11 years, retiring after Seoul. Having moved to the US in 1995, he is the General Manager of the Beijing Rongfeng 2008 Co., Ltd.

WTF?! OMG, I don’t know who whined more, Scott Keswick or John “We’re not doormats anymore” Roethlisberger. No John, you were the dog crap that people wiped ON the doormat. Or at least the US's gymnastics was. Stymie of “The Little Rascals” pretty much tells Scott how it was, like it was, and doesn’t hold back.

WTF?! Random non-gymnastics clip of the day. Oy, the Japanese are a hoot and a half.
