Steve, you seem to have missed the question I posed directly to you yesterday at 08:01 AM Mudcat-time, so here it is again…

”OK, what action would you take if, as a gymnast, you found you had lost the ability to track your position and the physical attitude of your body in relation to the floor when performing high-speed aerial twists and rotations - e.g. during a vault, or during an acrobatic dismount from a piece of equipment, or during an acrobatic manœuvre in the floor-exercise?”

As your several posts compare Biles’ actions and reactions against those of other sportsmen and women in what can only be seen as a critical and judgemental manner, I feel it’s perfectly reasonable to ask how you would deal with the issues she’s had to handle should you find yourself suffering the same condition. Criticism is one thing - any fool can criticise anything - but constructive criticism is something entirely different. I look forward to your considered and, hopefully, enlightening response…
