He performed a very good compulsorymand voluntary routine in the preliminary rounds, scoring a personal best of 64.7. This put him in 5th position going into the final. Nathan made a small mistake on move 4 and didn't complete his routine, but he was happy with his performance overall and has learnt a grreat deal from the experience. Nathan was going for a medal andneeded to pull out a big routine. Nathan however finished a creditable 8th. Well done.
