Talk:Floor (gymnastics)

message: The focus of the article seems a bit unclear to me. Is it the Floor apparatus or Floor exercise? It may be helpful if this is reflected in the name of the article aswell. Mpavlik20 (talk) 15:38, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: My suggestion would be to rename this page "Floor Excercise". It discusses the rules as well as the apparatus, and it is specific to gymnastics so "Spring Floor" would not be applicable. I think that this change would make the page more similar to those of the Uneven Bars and other events. Mpavlik20 (talk) 16:29, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

message: I've notice no references to famed tumblers. One of the most famous tumblers in history is Troy Maillis. See reference http://www.jonesbahamas.com/txt.php?a=13785 I surpise there no reference. The known online clips that I could refernce is

(this his top student & himself) called: All Star tumbling tumbling video. 
The other 3 on Zaneskater's clips are called "Gymnastics Tumbling", "tumbling", & the last is: "Crazy gymnastics". We should show some respect to a least some skilled tumblers, this helps people understand it better.
:Tumbling (gymnastics) or other such exercises perhaps? This is more about the apparatus used for a number of things. Dmcq (talk) 07:56, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

message: Has this event always been in the olympics? If not when was it added. Also did the floor ALWAYS have springs or foam blocks under it to help the gymnasts go higher? 68.104.247.142 (talk) 02:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe it was brought in as a men's sport in the 1936 Olympics and they used a lightly sprung floor. Before then gymnastics used to mainly use grass or mats in competitions though professional tumblers have had small spring floors for the last 150 years I think. Yes I would like to see a good history in the article. Dmcq (talk) 08:04, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

message: in gymnastics? because I know when Nadia Comaneci was a gymnast the floor wasn't sprung. Sweetie candykim (talk) 18:33, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you certain? Gymnastics as an exercise used normally be done in the open on the grass rather than a hard floor. Professional gymnasts have long before that used mats and spring floors as standard. When the mens gymnastics was introduced in the 1936 Olympics they had a lightly sprung floor. It is just simply dangerous to do gymnastics on a hard floor, even if somebody doesn't get killed it ruins ankles and knees. Personally I'm a bit appalled by the number of halls which still have hard floors and people do aerobics or line dance, somebody doing gymnastics on such a floor without mats is just an idiot in my opinion.

message: Hello! I have noticed that many of the citations no longer work as you cannot reach them. I will be going through to remove dead links, and attempting to find new sources that include the same information. I also plan on updating the rules with changes for more recently (past 2012) Mpavlik20 (talk) 14:52, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
