    Nice. Is baladin, the skill, named after him?

      Yep, it’s named after him.

      I think there are two.
      Balandin. Butterfly pull to Maltese
      Balandin 2 – Butterfly pull to Inverted Cross

    incredible display of strength.  yet he is relatively unmuscular compared to other gymnasts

      Also, being super pale doesn’t help looking muscular.
