If you got better at gymnastic skills as your body developed, got larger, and increased in age (especially over 16), then I would be in Beijing bringing home the gold.

But don't fret- in a couple of years it will be Winter game time, and your people should do quite well at flailing around in the snow. I've even heard that "igloo building" may be included this time. Yea!!
