    This video is also useful to give us one more reason as to why a RG athelte's peak can be quite short. A younger gymnast may train to become the best according to a certain CoP, developing certain skills better then others, but if that code changes significantly she would have a hard time adapting to the new one, maybe struggling to keep up as she used to.

  • @gaaraofthesand9370
    @gaaraofthesand9370 4 роки тому +307

    Guys, you are all forgetting something very important. All these skills are body difficulties. This CoP (2017-2020) gives more points to apparatus difficulties. For example, the Averina twins and Ashram are always winners in all competitions, as they have insane apparatus difficulties and masteries in their routines, because that's what the CoP demands. This is why we don't see these skills so often anymore, they won't give you higher scores. That's exactly why I really like the 2013-2016 CoP. They gave more attention to body difficulties, dance and execution!!!

      Yes, I included mainly body difficulties because, a lot of them aren't important as they used to be. But maybe n 20, 30 years, some masteries or body difficulty (penche, font scale etc...) will not be as popular as they are now. We'll see...

    I hate it when they make changes to things or elements to make it easier. I do agree on the knee changes since it was not such a clean move let alone healthy for the gymnasts but to take connections and don´t give credit for pivots and catching on a scale is puting the sport in a simpler manner at risk of loosing it´s curent status of sport. May be more accesible to more gymnasts yes, but less impresive for audiences and not so challenging forthe gymnasts posibilites and potential. Stop so much dancing in the routines!!!

    • @drenikat
      @drenikat 4 роки тому +8

      Connecting a jump and a pivot or balance is bad for the knees, too (and the ankles, hips and spine to be exact). So they'd either have to define connections better to exclude unhealthy ones or remove them altoghether. They went for the second option. IMHO people creating CoP are not very good at it, as they do not seem to have a vision of how they want this sport to develop. It goes left, right, up and down, changes like the wind. Mainly it seems to adapt to the first and second Russian gymnast of a particular period.

    For me quintessential BD of rhythmic gymnastics is the backscale pivot starting from floor, honestly I miss a lot the variety of BD difficulties in the recent COP'S, I think the problem is the FIG has not been enough competent to pack a COP that gave all the gymnasts the chance to shine with their own abilities and dexterity, for example in the 00's if you don't have back flexibility you were a no one and couldn't aspire to move forward ob rankings, 2013 - 2016 gave more emphasis to turns and apparatus handling so with those 2 kinds of factors you could shine through, now it's a lot of risks and apparatus difficulty no matter if you're privileged with flexibility, it you don't have what the COP requires during its cycle, maybe you could be a great gymnast but would never move ahead on rankings, for me one of the best examples of it was Almudena Cid that firstly the collapse of the Soviet Union pulled her down on rankings and after 2000 the brutal change of Codes that did little to reward the apparatus work and cleanness, Almudena has everything to be a world medallist but the right COP to work with

    • @ClematisRGVideos
      @ClematisRGVideos  4 роки тому +1

      Backscale pivot starting from floor is also one of my ''best of the best'' element!
      I think the evolution of the code isn't that bad indeed. 2001-2008 was very unbalanced, not using all the possibility of rg (aka apparatus and cleanness as you said, with the example of Cid). The current code tried out apparatus difficulty. So maybe the next code will try to balance it a bit more. Or maybe we'll have to wait till 2025?

I think if we took away points it would look like ballet: not in the technical content because ballet is very different from rhythmic, but in the variety. There would be much more variety, with extremely difficult routine and very easy one, some orientated only on pivots or only on apparatus handling for example.

    it seemes that this CoP Killed Body difficulties, i really liked connected lemetes like Tchachina did (the queen of bd connection for me ), althought some values were jokes,2013/2016 was ridicolous for pivots, too much points easily done (i think it was the CoP with gmyanstwere able to arrive at 10 in D in a easy way compared to the past), the chest balance compared to backscale pivto..and knee bd are a bog no for me, but i miss some elemts and creaitvity, as you said agiurgiuculese risk so much without getting really points just because she is one of few gymanst who loves art and spectacle .

    Question for everyone:
    do you prefer more CoP with more focus on body difficulties or apparatus difficulties, like the current one?
    I know it's a very generic question cause it always depends on the specific CoP, but think about the gymnasts: do you prefer Soldatova, Barsukova, Bessonova or Averinas, Ashram?

    • @user-wn9kt6ij7r
      @user-wn9kt6ij7r 4 роки тому +3

      I personally prefer current CoP, than previous 2013-2016 CoP. The exercises have become more dynamic and more entertaining to watch, with interesting and innovating apparatus work...especially groups performances during this Olympic cycle are more spectacular than ever.
      But of course there are some issues with clean execution and artistry, as well as lack of BD diversity. The 2018 season was, in my personal opinion, the most balanced.
      The ideal CoP for me would be CoP where body differently and apparatus work are equally represented, and that different types of gymnasts would be able to fight for the TOP encouraging their strongest abilities, doesn't matter if it's BD, or apparatus work, or artistry.
      2009-2012 CoP wasn't ideal of course, but it had very diverse BD offer and put bigger effort on apparatus work than previous CoPs. The Mix of 2009-2012 CoP and current 2017-2020 CoP would be ideal for me.
      The 2021-2024 CoP draft looks promising (except rope elimination), but of course we must see the final version, which will be out after January symposium in Moscow, promoted by RG Technical Committee.

    Also I was thinking about the connected elements...I don't like them all that much, it depends on the music and composition...but I would have loved to see bessonova with the actual code...performing 8 jumps in a row like she did in her galas! I always thought it was sad that she couldn't do it in the actual routines...

    • @ClematisRGVideos
      @ClematisRGVideos  4 роки тому +2

      In theory connected element can be very cool if clean and connected with the music. But back in 2001-2004, connected element were generally not very clean, even quite ugly with wobbly balances and pivot and jumps with heavy landing...
      On Bessonova: ahah yes she would (it was already a bit the case in some of her routines, hoop 2007-2008 for example), and then she would take the rest of the time to perform AD and Risks!

      Today RG code (2017-2020) is much more focus on apparatus difficulty than on body difficulty, for the simple reason that apparatus difficulties aren't limited (in number) whereas body difficulties are. The score of difficulty being open, you can understand pretty quick why we see less body difficulties than before. Also in previous code (before 2013), you could performed more body difficulty in the routine.
