Simone Biles & The Vault Once Thought Impossible 

You were just counting down the days, weren't you? 😂😂

💯💯 Many people try to discredit Simone's entire career based on one bad competition, but you can't erase history

@@gymnasticsmasterclass it’s not her fault what happened to her in Tokyo she had the twisties and could’ve died luckily that didn’t happen but she still came back strong in beam finals which l haven’t seen and won the bronze but people shouldn’t be discrediting her for what happened in Tokyo because that wasn’t her fault but that’s my opinion

@@kawaiichan6897 I fully agree. People already hated on her before for "winning too much" but after Tokyo, people used her leaving as an excuse to hate on her even more smh. It's like they forgot everything she's done for the sport and all the times she's won gold/helped to win gold for USA. She chose to not fatally injure herself and I'm glad she didn't. The twisties are serious and I wouldn't want any gymmasts to hurt theirself for a medal

@@gymnasticsmasterclassFacts💯💯💯

Yes, the US media put tremendous pressure on Simone. If you only casually watched coverage leading up to the Tokyo Olympics it was as if Simone was the only American gymnast competing. It was ridiculous. They're no doubt showing their support and building excitement for the viewers, but they need to stop this hyper-focus on one individual athlete, especially with team events. It's too much stress on the athlete they've singled out and they practically ignore the other teammates. I remember how they overly hyped Phelps and several others through the years, and I agree they went the most extreme with Simone. Olympic athletes are tough and they are trained to perform under pressure, but the media need to stop putting them up on such a high pedestal that the only way off is to fall or grow wings.

J aime ce qu elle a décidé après les jeux de Tokyo Il faut que les gens de penser pour les autres Elle a été critiquée mais elle connaissait sa souffrance Elle a fait fi des critiques Car sa santé mentale était plus importante que les performances à ce moment là Elle aurait écouté ces personnes qui écrivent peut être elle ne ferait plus de sport car elle aurait pu se blesser Je dis bravo à cette talentueuse formidable incomparable gysmase Elle n est pas là sexy pour faire le show mais nous montrer avec du travail de la volonté de la niack et de l Amour on peut faire de belles choses Bravo SIMONE et que Dieu vous benisse Merci aux grands parents d'avoir donné ce pouvoir à cette enfant vous avez changé sa vie et grâce à vous nous avons une personne exceptionnelle Je vous rends grâce

this made me laugh out loud xD

LOL!!

Why would she (or anyone) take the name from the guy? That seems unfair.

@@Nothanks935 there’s no guy. If you’re talking about Yurchenko, just know that Yurchenko is a woman. And the name won’t be taken from her, as her name refers only to the entrance to the vault and not the whole thing.

Is this vault gonna get biles name?

@@Kbenhamu if she successfully performs it at worlds, yes

Don’t worry… this vault, not only will be baptized after Simone because she will perform it on a major competition, it’s only a matter of time, but after that, it will easily take several years for some other gymnast, to have the guts and the talent to perform it. Simone Biles is truly a walking legend already.

😂 don't know on which planet Jade's floor can rival Simone's. Jade is fantastic, no doubt, but nope!

@@beeh.613 Toyko Qualifying FX: Simone 14.133 Jade: 14.100 I guess that’s which planet, sweetheart.

@@cantor7723 oh so you cite ONE competition!?! aaawww "sweetheart" REALLY?? LAUGHABLE!! How about the TOTALITY of their careers!!!?? oh my goodness, sugarplum...

@@beeh.613 You wanted evidence of my claim, and I presented it. Have a nice day. 😉

@@cantor7723 and um, the score is STILL LESS. But there's no need to bicker here. Jade is who she is, absolutely fantastic!! But she is NOT Simone, period.

I’m glad you brought this up. I’d like to think of Simone as a boomerang 🪃 when she flies in the pikes position. I feel like since she’s shorter her center of gravity allows her to rotate a lot faster than someone with a taller build.

Many male gymnasts already did it. It's quite common especially in competitions

I think it's in the code since she performed it at nationals but it won't bear her name until she does it at a worlds or Olympics

Yeah right

I love Rebecca but I can't see her doing this vault yet nor does she need to. The poor girl has had enough injuries so this vault would be dangerous for her and she has one of the best Cheng's ever performed so she doesn't need it anyway lol.

The produnova is a 6 in the current code so yeah the yurchenko double pike is higher rated (6.4)

Produnova isn’t the highest rated vault anymore

Um the double pike is rated higher than the produnova so?

@@murasakino101 it is yeah

At the 2023 World Championships
