My Favorite Olympic Event
What's your favorite Olympic game sport ? Well my favorite sport is gymnastics. My three favorite things you can perform in gymnastics are uneven bars, floor exercise and pommel horse.As you can see in order, my most favorite rotation in gymnastics are the uneven bars.
In uneven bars you have two bars in different heights. You have a high bar and a low bar to perform on. You swing around on those two bars and do releases, flips, turns and transitions. This event is for girls in the Olympics, but anybody can try it for exercise and fun. The girl with the most points in uneven bars was Gabby Douglas. My second favorite rotation is floor exercise.
In floor exercise you can run, jump, do flips and twists. This event is extremely dangerous event for untrained people because you can land on your head, fall while trying to perform a stunt and much more. This event is for both boys and girls in the Olympics. If you want to make a floor exercise stadium you should, find something wide and bouncy(like a wide bounce house) and make a place where people can watch. My third favorite rotation in gymnastics is the pommel horse.
In pommel horse you have a short balance beam with two handles on top.In the Olympics this event is for boys only. Pommel horse is one of the more difficult events but less dangerous. Pommel horse was made by solders because they used this to practice dismounting and mounting their horse. You hold the handles or the edges of the balance beam doing handstands ,turning your legs in a circular motion and trying to get perfect landings.
Gymnastics are hard and dangerous, a lot of people fall in the Olympics so don't be sad if you are bad at it.
