[edit] Removed "Skills" section, too technical, et al
I removed the section entitled "Skills" because it is filled with technical gymnastic terms that only gymnasts or someone else deeply conversant with gymnastics would understand. An encyclopedia article should not require a technical manual to be understood. In fact, isn't the purpose is to make the recondite accessible?
Finally, none of the terms were referenced. The editor might want to create entries--or reference them if they already exist--of the aforementioned terms.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
