ROTATION 2
2:15 pm. Reuben Ward GBR PH: Scissors to circles, Russians on the single pommel, to circles on the pommel, careful and controlled, travels well in circles then in Russians, mostly good extension until the very end, nails the dismount, GOD HE DESERVES THIS MOMENT. 14.433!
Matteo Giubellini SUI VT: 13.800
Amine Abaidi NED PH: 13.333
2:14 pm. Daniel Marinov RUS SR: Maltese to inverted pike to maltese, swing through to pike sit, into piked saltos to handstand, big arch over but pulls it back, also super arched on the back giant to handstand, shaky there, double double with two little steps back. 13.266
Danila Leykin USA VT: 14.100
2:12 pm. Thomas Mejia COL PB: Missed a handstand and fell onto the bar, ugh. Also got sketchy in a full pirouette with his leg form. Hit the Tippelt, arched over on the handstand before the Bhavsar, press handstand was nice, full-in off the end of the bars, a bit short with a hop. 12.266
Kawakami Shohei JPN PH: 13.766
Yang Haonan CHN SR: 14.000
Mattia Piffaretti SUI VT: 13.833
2:10 pm. Jake Jarman GBR PH: Scissors to handstand down to circles, solid enough. Circles on the single pommel, Russians between the pommels, travels in Russians with LOTS of leg separation, travels in circles go better, just some noticeable hip form moments, gets into the dismount. 13.366
Florian Langenegger SUI VT: 14.066

ROTATION 1
2:03 pm. Arseniy Dukhno RUS PH: Going back in time to watch this. Had some minor leg sepration on early circles, nice single pommel Russians, travels in Russians, minor hip form, same with the circle travels, rushed the pirouette in the dismount but ultimately a hit! 13.833
Casimir Schmidt NED VT: Got a replay of this, Dragulescu, chest down, big step to the side. 14.000
2:01 pm. Jake Jarman GBR FX: I jumped in a second late but THINK he opened with a double double layout and then 2.5 to punch front, little bounce back on the latter. 3.5 down the side, small hop forward. Lil hitch kick into the corner. Triple double, small hop. Triple full side pass. Double double to finish, tiny bounce back.
Tian Hao CHN PH: 13.666
Mattia Piffaretti SUI SR: 13.433
1:59 pm. Kameron Nelson USA SR: Had a nice planche, a little wobbly in a giant to handstand but loved the way he lowered down into the inverted cross, to iron cross, fab series. Back giant to handstand had a little bobble, looked like he stuck the triple back! 13.366
1:56 pm. Doi Ryosuke JPN FX: Triple double, step back. 2.5 to double front, tiny bounce. 3.5 down the side, CASUAAAAL. Good landing. Nice on the front full to randi. Wobbles a bit in the Y scale. Dobule dobule with a step, think his heel is either OOB or right on the line. 13.733

1:50 pm. Zou Jingyuan CHN PH: We’re definitely way behind on this feed because his score already came up. Spoiler alert! He hit. Watching now, everything at the beginning goes well, his transitions between elements are so clean, Russians at the end of the horse with nice form, quick into the dismount but not rushed, overall fab work. 14.100
Matteo Giubellini SUI SR: 13.000
1:48 pm. Joe Fraser GBR FX: Hands down on the full-twisting double layout, nauuur. Double double with a step back. Stuck the double front down the side. 2.5 to front layout with a hop forward. Arabian double front half, step back. Good recovery after the fall but also OOF. 12.500

Full-twisting double layout, chest down, a little bobbly. 2.5 to front layout down the side was stuck. Double double, almost stuck? Looked like a foot moved a hair. Double pike, stuck with his chest really far down. 13.700
1:42 pm. God I hate Peacock broadcasts so much, give me my multiple chaotic individual apparatus streams! We’re of course watching an ad while Hashimoto Daiki is on floor. I think they’re waiting for Shane Wiskus to go up on rings because Murica.
Based on live scores, the comp should be starting now.
1:35 pm. Touch warmups should begin shortly! The final groups of athletes are walking in now.
1:32 pm. Athletes are being introduced now!
If you missed qualifications, I did a quick recap after they finished so you can catch up before today’s competition.
1:26 pm. The team final will begin in about four minutes!
I’m watching on Peacock, which definitely will not show every routine, but I’ll try to share scores for routines that we don’t see.
Full disclosure that I am also working my day job so might need to step away from time to time but I’m also excited to see how good I am at multitasking.
Let’s gooooooooo!
