Seda Tutkhalyan (RUS), Giulia Steingruber (SUI), Lisa Top (NED) on the vault podium at the inaugural European Games in Baku.
Mary-Anne "Mez" Monckton, Emma and Jessica chat about:
- The unusual format of 3 up 2 count over two days for team, and men and women on the floor at once.
- One per country rule for finals - spoiler alert, we hated it!
- The level of difficulty might have been lower than usual (12.8 for bronze on bars) but the performances were gorgeous! We choose our favorite routines and skills
- The return of Komova! Rejoice!
- Showdown of the Olegs, plus the big payout for medals given to Oleg Stepko by Azerbeijan. He made bank!
- The Russian Dream Team: Seda, Aliya and Komova
- Giulia Steingruber, is she the new Sacramone of vault and floor?
- Concussions in context: Brinn Bevin high bar fall and why concussions are always serious.
- Fabian Hambüchen's dinasour roars and new floor skill.
- Miguel Rayderley Zapata from Spain won floor just like Jessica told you guys he would! If you don't love him, you are not paying attention!
