Epke Zonderland "The Flying Dutchman" goes for Olympic gold on his best event, the high bar. The top qualifier, Zonderland will likely wow the crowd with this high-flying release skills. Can he beat 2008 Olympic champion Zou Kai?

Epke Zonderland is a member of the Dutch National Team and is nicknamed the "Flying Dutchman". He is a World medalist and his best events are high bar and parallel bars.

Zonderland throws some of the highest difficulty on his best events, with a massive 7.9 on high bar and 6.7 on p-bars. His high scores of 16.4 (HB) and 15.8 (PB) in 2012 put him in strong contention to medal in London.
