His partner is Arturo Miranda. Position 8. There are 6 rounds.
First round: They used back dive - pike with 2.0 difficulty.
Comment: Alex stood on the left springboard. He said “1 2 3 Go” and then they jump and…awwwwwwwww! His head is adjoined with his knees! How could he do that? *is very proud*

Rank: 3!
Another: Dimitry Sautin & his partner (RUS) is in rank 2 and, as always, China is in rank 1!

Round 2: They used reverse dive - pike with 2.0 difficulty.
Comment: Again, his head adjoined with his knees! *awwww* Well, I think Alex might be better if he dive alone. *look at his hair* hahahahahahahha. HIS HAIR! It stands erect after he shake off his head - like a dog shake off itself after take a bath. LOL I can remember this, he does like this 4 years ago. Alex is still Alex. :)

Well, he’s done his best. He’s still good, as I can see. He’s still got a chance in single event though. About another, as always, China won gold medal, no doubt, they dive so well in round 1-5 that’s why they got very high score BUT I have a doubt, why do they get very high score (90+) at final round though there’s a mistake that EVERYONE can see while in another round they dive perfectly but don’t get a score more than 90? Is there something hiding in this event? *find faults*
Newberry participated in this event also but…..sorry you’re good but your partner not! XD
Another one I want to mention, SAUTIN! Didn't he retired already? I thought that he's a coach now! He’s 34 4 years ago, that means he’s 38 this year! OH. Old but strong, I admire you. But don’t participated in single event, Alex deserve it, ok? XD
I know that I’m not a good reporter coz I always report only my favorite. XD I just want to keep this as one of my memories. :)
hmmm...Olympic day 5.....Alex end this event with rank 5. O_O what a bad luck!
