Chapter 222
If all scores are tied, lots are drawn to determine the ranking. However, due to the protests of some association countries, the tie breaking rule was only adopted in the Olympics, and tie was still allowed at the World Championships.
"The summer finals are floor exercises! Why write uneven bars on the spot? "Looking at the schedule, but why is it written on the uneven bars?
The uneven bars are unique to women's gymnastics, which consists of two bars, one high and one low, and the distance between the bars can be adjusted. The height of the low bar is 130~160 cm, and the height of the high bar is 190~240 cm. The horizontal bar is oval, with a length diameter of 5 cm and a short diameter of 4 cm, which is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic and wooden bar surface, which has good elasticity and solidity. The rules have specific requirements for the combination of different difficulties of the set of movements, the number of transitions between the low bar and the high bar, the difficulty of the aerial maneuver, and the difficulty of the turn.
At first, female gymnasts also used parallel bars, but this made the burden on women's upper limbs too heavy and not suitable for the characteristics of female athletes. Therefore, people use two uneven bars, that is, one bar of the parallel bars is raised, and the other bar is kept at the same height. On these two uneven bars, sitting, supine, lying, standing, balancing and other competition actions are performed. This was the predecessor of the uneven bars.
Later, the development of uneven bar technology changed with each passing day, and the equipment was constantly improved, resulting in the uneven bars that everyone sees today.
"It's supposed to be the uneven bars, isn't the first day of floor exercise the final?" Fei is also very strange, anyway, it's just gymnastics.
As with other gymnastics events, the uneven bars are scored according to the International Gymnastics Federation's gymnastics scoring rules.
Judges score points based on the difficulty, state, technique, and choreography of the movements.
In high-level competitions, athletes are required to complete five special action sets, including a leap maneuver, where the athlete needs to leave the high bar and complete a somersault or other flight maneuver, and then return to the high bar, a bar change, and a close bar.
Athletes are also required to swing smoothly and complete a handstand on the bar. The technique is also very important, not only to be difficult, but also to land like a "nail": both feet at the same time, not front and back apart, no small jumps or strides.
Incorrect or incomplete movements, drops from the machine, pauses, invalid swings, unsteady landing, and other mistakes can result in point deductions.
Wrist guards and bandages are allowed when athletes compete, and magnesium powder can also be used to increase friction. Other athletes and coaches can help athletes apply magnesium powder to equipment.
Unlike the horizontal bars and rings in men's gymnastics, athletes cannot start from the machine. They must use a simple or complex technique to get on the machine, which can be used from the high or low bars, and can be used for both running and springboarding.
When the game starts, the coach is not allowed to interfere with the athlete in any way. However, the coach can stand by the floor mat to protect the athlete while he or she is doing a flight maneuver or a move.
When an athlete falls from a mistaken bar, the coach can catch her, and the coach can also help the athlete get on the high bar to keep her on the race. If an athlete is using a springboard on the bar, the coach or other athlete is allowed to move it quickly so that it does not interfere with the subsequent movements.
"It means I don't understand gymnastics." Looking at the movements of the first contestant in the video, he has been pulling the uneven bars and spinning, turning around like that.
"The uneven bars also have a soul of their own." Yu Xin patted Fei's head gently, this is a melon head.
In the uneven bars competition, athletes usually start with an elastic springboard, and move between the high and low bars through a series of swings, loops, and special movements such as turns and jumps.
The uneven bars must be smooth without pauses, and the movements may include 17-18 different movements such as somersaults with both hands off the bar, turns, etc., which are usually completed in less than a minute.
The scoring of uneven bars competitions mainly depends on the choreography, the method of holding the bar, the way of moving the bar, and the difficulty of the movements. The last action of landing is also the highlight of the uneven bars competition, landing must be able to control one's body, and points will be deducted for stepping or jumping to help balance.
There are specific requirements for the number of transitions between high bars, the difficulty of the take-off maneuvers, and the difficulty of the turn.
"I just want to say one thing, hehe!" Fei was already dizzy and turned his head to look at Xuanwu's taekwondo.
"I found that Xuanwu has really perfectly transformed from defensive to offensive and defensive." The final was played as a team in a team of three.
It is obvious that one is offensive and the other is defensive, while Xuanwu is non-offensive and non-defensive. It's that the two stand side by side, and they can attack and defend, making it difficult for people to deal effective damage to him.
"Since he was changed by Grandpa Mo, he has basically practiced some offensive and defensive tactics." Mo Lin nodded affirmatively.
"I love his spins, it's cool." Fei directly recorded the video, and it was still a 360-degree spinning kick.
"When standing on the right frame, use the tip of the left foot as the axis, the left heel is externally rotated, and the weight shifts to the left leg. Both feet are rotated inwards about 180 degrees on the axis of the soles of both feet, the right rotation of the body is about 90 degrees, and the two fists are placed in front of the chest. When the body is turned to the right back, twist the legs at a certain angle, and at the same time lift the right thigh and push up diagonally 40 degrees to the back, and turn the head backwards. The body continues to rotate, the right leg uses the force of rotation to spin the right back, swing and whip backwards, drive the right leg to swing to the right side of the body, bend the knee of the right leg and draw a semi-circular horizontal arc backwards, quickly bend the paint and hit the opponent's head or chest with the sole of the foot. After the blow, the center of gravity of the body is still on the left leg, and the right foot falls naturally, returning to the right frame preparation position, which seems to have been seen before? Yu Xin glanced at it.
"Didn't you say you don't pay attention to taekwondo? Why do you even know this action so clearly? Fei Fei looked at Yu Xin slyly, revealing a treacherous expression.
Someone turned his head and continued to watch the gymnastics competition, and his mind was still thinking about the 360-degree backspin kick just now.
"Are you stupid? That move used to be your signature move. Tingting reminded, absent-minded and don't have to guess to know what you're thinking.
Someone quibbled, "I didn't think about this!" I'm thinking...... I was wondering why Xia Xia's gymnastics was so good if she hadn't practiced for so long. ”
"Really?"
All four looked at her in unison, "Of course! ”
"Oh oh~" in unison again.
"Watch your game! Oh the hell! Yu Xin tried her best not to let herself blush, in fact, she remembered it when Tingting said that this action was her signature move.
This move comes from a fight she had against a speedy fighter of her calibre who scored the same amount of points when she missed a backspin kick, so she had too much to score in the next second, and she created a second backspin (360-degree backspin kick) on the second spin.
