This video was very informative. I never knew that an arch was a deduction. I always thought it was aesthetically pleasing to include it.

I do too although straight bodied Paks could look quite lovely too.

Honestly it's quite impossible for taller gymnasts to perform that skill without an arch. And in my opinion the arch makes it as beautiful as it is.

Pak herself arched her own skill. As that is how she performed it I don't see why an arch should receive a deduction. IMO, I think some arched Paks look quite beautiful like Nastia Liukin's.

Margaret Tudor During Pak’s time, the bars were much closer together, and therefore the inevitable arch.

I'm inclined to agree. Often the arch is a beautiful flowing display of back flexibility.

All this time I thought you were supposed to be arched while performing the Pak salto. It still looks nice when done that way & shows a lot of flexibility.

It’s funny because I always found Nastia’s to be the most beautiful BECAUSE of the arch.

damn I learned something today, I totally didn't realize they aren't supposed to arch so much. Nastia has a pretty big arch and commentators never said anything when she did that skill for example. It’s a beautiful skill either way!

Komova's pak is the most beautiful for me. I don't think it is really good executed but I really like Sanna Veerman's Bhardwaj.

This video demonstrates why I hate what they call the nabieva 1/2. I am expecting the gymnast to do a half turn and catch the high bar, after the completion of the turn. Not a mixed grip.

What about Dominique Moceanu's pak from 1996? They called it a Pak salto, but it appears to be a different skill as she does a clear hip immediately afterwards. Is that considered the same skill?

I never knew you weren't supposed to arch your back that much for the pak salto. I guess because so many do. I think it looks pretty either way

Is an overshoot to handstand the same as a pak 1/2? And is the bhardwaj an overshoot with 1/2 turn? Or is there some difference?
@hazelnutspred3348

An overshoot is the same setup as a pak half. If you were doing a pak half, you wouldn't land in a handstand like in an overshoot (to handstand), if that makes sense. The Bhardwaj isn't an overshoot to handstand with a half turn. Its s pak with a full turn because the gymnast goes under the bar when they catch it. I could be wrong though

Technically isn’t Komova’s not perfectly executed? The angle of completion is way below 45 degrees and would technically be a 0.3 deduction, even though hers is quite aesthetically pleasing.

for me, it is perfectly executed. Her body is basically straight I did not see way below 45 degrees at all.

Gymfan Channel I mean how she catches the bar with an almost horizontal body angle instead of say where Bailie Key catches it, which is where the code says it should be caught. Like I said (@Gowreesh) I think it’s still beautiful and if it were up to me it wouldn’t be a deduction but I was just pointing it out, not trying to hate...

Kojo Baidoo I know you are not "hating", it is always nice to have an actual conversation with gym fans. Thank you for the explanation. Yes, she catches it low bar a bit low but still I don't think it would be a deduction, I was more thinking about her form during the flight.
