PERFECT SCORE!   Michael Schloesser won the gold medal with a 150/150

 

The quarter final against our youngster Shamai Yamrom was a really fun one to watch ended in a shoot off, and decided by Less then 9mm

Tumbling should so absolutely be on the Olympic program. Holy moly, that is awesome.

Yes, but we gonna get instead a brand new - and very exciting - mixed event in gymnastics allowing the same athletes winning more medals doing the same thing again ! So, so much better.

I would easily replace the trampoline event for tumbling.

If that was an option, definitely. Although personally I also like trampoline, at least it's different than anything else (and relatable for lots of people who have stood on a trampoline at least once in their life), but tumbling certainly beats it

My pleasure 

 

Anyway, with swimming becoming somehow a 50 golds sport  Gymnastics should be allowed to add a couple of events...

I'd easily replace trampoline, tumbling, rhythmic gymnastics, artistic swimming, dressage an so on with Kyokushinkai Karate

None of them are bad, although the only one I watch is rhythmic gymnastics. If you ask me the current Olympic champions in trampoline and artistic swimming I wouldn't know

But then without the nonsense of 'you get DQ'ed if you knock your opponent out', of course. It's a combat sport, one should be going all-out and not be holding back on purpose
