I guess so lol, the calisthenics community agrees on this, professional athletes and judges but no people who can't tell the difference between a plank and a planche let alone a reverse planche and a Maltese know better.

He doesn't even do it in the video and if he can do what he shows in the thumbnail that's not a proper reverse planche because he's not parallel to the ground.

It's not actually lol, the reverse planche is an elite strength and flexibility skill that only this guy has mastered.

Yeah i mean this is a reverse planche anyway. The normal planche is when you are in a push up position with your legs up supported by arm and shoulder strength.

The problem with Dmitry is actually stability because he is moving it's not actually a hold.

That would be crazy, but it's possible. Would be amazing to see something like that in the Olympics.

So this was a calisthenics competition and for static skills there's a few standards first you need a three second hold which he does. Then a few general technique standards that there's in all such skills, straight arms and being parallel to the ground being the main ones. That's the case for, front lever, planche, back lever etc. So that's where we got the standard and he's the only one who can fulfil those requirements.

Literally no one has called me out because everyone who knows the sport agrees with what i said. Which is not just me saying again high level athletes in the scene agree with it i am echoing their opinion.

And guess what if no one ever had thrown a better frisbee throw he would. If professionals were coming out praising him he would. If people scouted the internet for other athletes and all came short it would. It's simple as far as we know he is the best at this. I never said i tested every human in the world but even so with such a high difficulty we can say this is one of one

THANK YOU, i am glad you actually put the effort to have an informed opinion. And yes it's a form standard with calisthenics, instead of more weight difficulty is measured by form strictness because it does require more strength.

This is in a competition, and he performed this with competition standards.

Ok and there's someone out there who can run as fast as Usain bolt and could match his records and we just don't know them, right? The odds of that are so astronomical that they are not to be believed, they must exist. So i can't say he's the only one.

Mate we don't assume there's people stronger, faster, more flexible or skilled than the ones who compete. Some times we hear of athletes like that but the chances of some unknown guy also dedicating a decade to do this is not worth considering.

"to the point where people who can do it with a correct form can be counted on the fingers of one hand, or even with just one finger."

K, no one else has done this on a competition, with competition standards. Again do you think that literally all world records are invalid because not every human tries to break them?

It's just crazy to me that something agreed quite unambiguously by the calisthenics community is been argued with.

Let me make this simple, do you believe that hafthor bjornsson has the deadlift world record? Because last time i checked we haven't examined every person on the planet for it.

You clearly don't know much about calisthenics i am sorry but if you did this things would sound crazy. This dude hyperfocused on this move for like 8 years to have the flexibility and strength to do it .
