    So...to be clear, her moves are the hardest... They're worth the most points...and she's the only one that can do them. She's a boss level dude. Anybody finally beats her at something she's just ginna start the second health bar and start actually flying.

    I Love how you showed some of Simone's "not-so-perfect" landings followed-up by her eventually accomplishing perfect landings on the same moves. It shows how "little-by-little" we all can improve. Through determination, courage, training, talent and shear focus, our goals are attainable.

      Watching the The Queen's Gambit, a tv show about a chess prodigy who sometimes lost games and had to STUDY chess games, tactics and strategies to get better and become a champion was so eye opening for me that I decided to finally learn how to play chess, on my own, at 35 years old. I have gotten VERY good at it since 2020 and I still play every week. The lesson here is that even "gifted" people have to put in the effort and IMPROVED on their craft.

      Oh, and I don’t see how anyone could seriously deny she’s the GOAT. Sure, objectively quantifying is hard, but she wins by an insane margin on so many levels (skills, difficulty, scores in different CoP, medals, execution). To say "But her ARtistrY …“ is just pathetic as it is the most subjective part of the scoring (not to mention sexist and eurocentric) and couldn’t even mar her achievements if she was indeed severly lacking in it.

      @franksantiago2088 3 місяці тому +2

      I was skeptical at first but FYI - it's named after Yurchenko for being the first to perform it, but Simone was the first to actually perform it in competition, which is why it was renamed, since no other woman before her could pull it off in competition. It's also known for being very risky since there's a much higher chance of this move resulting in landing on your head or neck than most others. So while she didn't try it first, she's the only one to land it in a competition, plenty of justification for renaming it.

    I come from a ballet orientation. I observe that Simone Biles needs a good line. I would like to see her feet, pointed and not stuck on the ends of her legs. I know that she is extremely strong, but I would like to see that strength melded into beauty, I would like to see pointed feet and more dancerly movement. It is as if I’m watching a machine instead of a body moving through the air. I would like to see length and grace in her body. I would like to see it at all the gymnasts actually. But because she is the acknowledged, Best, I would like to see that in her, it would take gymnastics back to a virtue that it once had but lost, in it’s quest for one more twist, and one more turn. Go ahead twist and turn, but make it beautiful.

    I thought the double tuck stand-wolf turn on the beam that she does was also named after her (she also does it in the dancing portion of floor). Who is that skill named after?

    The guard at the end of the obstacle has to have razer shart accurate judgment to move in at the exact moment it appears she's going to land wrong. I would have anxiety having this job. Their life is literally in his hands.

    But isn't Yurchenko named after someone already?? I mean if she put some more funk on it thats great but its already named after someone tho right??

      Yurchenko refers to the approach to the horse (a round-off back handspring). Double twisting Yurchenko is the most common vault, but when Simona Amanar added a half-twist at the end (producing a 'blind' landing), they named it after her. We've seen double-pikes done off the horse before, but not with a Yurchenko (i.e. blind) approach, making it way more difficult, so it's rightly named after the first one to land it in competition.
