Special achievement: Following the 1999 World Championships, the
FIG (Federation of International Gymnastics) added new elements
into the Code of Points, and the uprise full turn or uprise 1½
turn was officially named the 'Reeder'. The skills were given a
difficulty value of "D" meaning that they were recognised as
very difficult elements. |
