I can see both sides.. but I guess I'm in the minority when I say I like it.
When we went to one vault we didn't see teams only doing layouts and not going for the 10.0 vaults. And I don't buy that athletes will start to devalue their skills. It will just take one athlete to do a huge skill and everyone else will need to step up...
In today's situation if say on bars.. we had two falls, would we see both Jenn and Leslie take out their full ins or a realease move to be safe? Or would they throw everything like normal?? I think it will be OK, just different and needing to get used to.
GO BEAVS!!
