I really miss Kenzo Shirai😭💔
I think about him a lot, and just needed to express that.

“I know it's called "Women's" Artistic Gymnastics, but is there actually a rule in the CoP which would prevent Kenzo Shirai from competing? Because the UB he's casually doing "for fun" is amazing.”

George Nissen maybe didn't deserve that though
no idea where i was going with this but i abandoned it at the most disconcerting moment possible
#I know his daughter and several people who were his colleagues/associates back in the day#the man basically singlehandedly invented both the trampoline and the sport of trampoline gymnastics from the ground up#(the idea of flexible netting was taken from trapeze safety nets but the frame and springs that makes it rebound was all him)#and the trampoline and loose foam pit basically completely revolutionized the sport of gymnastics#the world would not have gymnasts doing what Simone Biles and Jade Carey and Kenzo Shirai and so on do without Nissen's work and influence#and like... let me be clear#Nissen equipment is HIGH quality#(not just the trampolines; his company also made all of the regular artistic equipment)#and decades after it ceased operation many clubs out there are STILL using their Nissen equipment because it LASTS AND LASTS AND LASTS#and if you've been on a Nissen trampoline you know... there have been imitators there have been duplicators but there is only ONE originator#it really was a case where there's a marked difference between the trademarked Genuine Article and the shoddy knockoffs#and the trademark has a role in consumer protection knowing that you're actually getting what you think you're buying#idk. call me crazy. he's got a sport he invented in the Olympics and you don't though#RIP

kenzo with kohei in his arms at the retirement celebration is the sweetest thing I've seen 🥺🥺
"The loneliness of retiring outweighs the fun of wondering what we can do together 😌
Suppose you have a book called Gymnastics Life by Kohei Uchimura. If my name appears on one page or one line there, I wouldn't be so happy.
I will continue to take care of you from now on ✌️"
more photos here or on his instagram
