Changing to the International rules seems like a good idea. It will especially help the athletes who are looking to compete in the Olympics.

It's about time. Most other sports are in line with international rules, so it's good that gymnastics has moved there. And yeah, hopefully it will help come Olympics time.

I like how we are going international and using other countries standards instead of just our own. This provides a first step towards adopting more international rules.
