Adam Buckingham, Adam McCassey, Alexander Uttley and Jonathan Stranks, Britain’s Men’s Four about their success with Spelbound. They will compete at the 22nd Acrobatic Gymnastics World Championships in Wroclaw (POL). It’s great they really use all the attention and point to competitive acrobatic gymnastics. Good luck, guys!
“It would have been too hard to choose between shows and competition. They go hand in hand. The people who saw us on Britain’s Got Talent will be watching us here in Wroclaw. They want to know if we can hold our own in a world class competition. People recognise us in the street, at the airport, even outside of Great Britain. A medal at this competition would be the ultimate victory.” And we’ve got our fingers crossed for these friendly young men!
Read the full interview here (FIG).
Unfortunately, Katie Axten (who also performed with Spelbound) and Nicolas Illingworth – one of my favourite mixed pairs – won’t compete. Hopefully it’s just because of Britain’s Got Talent and they didn’t retire.

I love that acro is getting more attention! It’s such a great sport. I’d love to see it in the olympics someday…
