My Favorite Floor Routines from the 2017-2021 Quad

[@kiraalldredge48]

Suni's 2019 routine is one of my all-time favorite floor routines.

Have you ever seen Shawn on the floor ? 🤡

[@ansonpang]

I used to hateee Biles 2019's music, but after the Tokyo twisties incident, I can't help but watch it in awe. She really performs it and it helps that that is probably the most iconic floor routine of the 2017-2021 quad with the triple double

@@bluepanther1013 I like her Olympics routine better because it's more mature and dramatic than her other one which is more playful and definitely more.of a junior look for her which isn't bad, but as a senior I like her Olympic one because it's more powerful. Also, it's super dramatic which reflects how we were all feeling during the Olympics.

[@Appaddict01]

Roxana Popa 2019.

[@BDjoetaxi1999]

All of these were beautiful. In addition I really enjoyed Murakami Mai's routines from the 2020 Olympics and 2021 Worlds. Melnikova had some beautiful routines this year too.

[@vreedlak1833]

I loved Melnikova's routine as well. It was interesting because she cleverly picked 4 cuts of music so that she could perform dance elements "in sync" with the music. Just about all of the other gymnasts throw at least one dance move that isn't remotely with the music to meet the requirements.

[@bagelized]

I love the moment when 2019 Suni does her wolf turn combo, because even though “ugh two wolf turns” the music is so appropriately timed, like it pauses and then waits for her to resume her second turn lol. Edit: the music is “Pirates, Thugs and Bandits” from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey! Also play the game, it’s fun :)

[@ginagogeanfan4791]

I feel like Diana’s 2019 routine was so underrated, she performs it stunningly and the music fits her so well.

[@mojovr5003]

I love the floorwork section of that routine

[@AnywhereChrista]

Shoot every time I watch Morgan's world's floor routine I end up in tears and this time was no different 😭

[@ragansmithgymnastics7782]

Note: I limited myself to one routine per gymnast, or I probably would have had more from Morgan and maybe Ragan.

[@kevinjewell233]

Ragan had some of the best floor routines in the last quad!!! Sometimes watching her reminds me so much of a very young Kim Zmeskal I saw in Paris at the International de Paris when Marta brought her and Chelle Stack...nobody had head of Kim, and then she exploded on floor and the journalists fell in love...I was mesmerized. her triple whip double tuck was beyond anyone else on the floor that night using some French CanCan music!!! The competition was a good one for Stack but Kim stone the show!!!

[@lukebeauchampp]

Morgan’s Floor choreography is literally my fav of all time, she put the artistry in artistic gymnastics

[@nicky9757]

the fact theres not a single Roxana popa routine. im gonna give u the benefit of the doubt and say it was #11

[@Appaddict01]

Her 2019 routine is definitely one of the best of the quad.

[@goodstuffs1986]

Morgan 2017 routine is one of the best routines I have ever seen in gymnastics. So beautiful and artistic. I'm so glad that she could become world all around champion.

[@Appaddict01]

It was better earlier in the year when she had that awesome ending.

[@MD-722]

@@Appaddict01 I agree, that was by far one of the best I've seen in years. If I could build a time machine I would sit her and her coach down and force them to let her elbow heal properly before attempting to do anything that hinders the process.

[@Appaddict01]

MD-722 In hindsight she probably should have taken off all of 2018.

[@MD-722]

@@Appaddict01 Literally. For me it was when I was watching Golden and she was there outwardly admitting to doing things such as trying to train bars up to as little as 1 week after surgery provided she could at least _"hang on the high bar"_ and the fact that her coach allowed it! When I saw that all I could say was _"*that*_ right there was how your career was sabotaged," especially when she showed the camera the state of her elbow. Morgan Hurd was my *FAVOURITE* American gymnast of the 2017-2021 quad. After first being introduced to her at the 2017 Stuttgart Cup I was blown away to see an American gymnast with a completeness comparable to those of Golden Age. Of course in time she was followed by several others as the quad went on--Riley McCusker; Mailie O'Keefe; Sunisa Lee; Leanne Wong; Kara Eaker etc--but when became World Champion in 2017 I stood up and declared that the pendulum had swung! So when I found what had actually been going on, I was *infuriated.* Because considering she got injured at the VERY beginning of the quad, taking the ample time off to rest and recover properly should have been the priority from the start. But the refusal to do so caused her to never meet her full potential (even as a specialist) and ultimately cost her her place on the Olympic team.

[@Appaddict01]

MD-722 Yes, it was a huge mistake. I absolutely loved that early 2017 ending pose, it gave me Ivana Hong vibes. I love all of those gymnasts. That is, why, I get super annoyed when people act like artistic American gymnasts don’t exist. Just because they might not make the Olympic team doesn’t mean they don’t exist. This happens almost every quad. I think my overall favorite routine of the last five years is from Helen Hu. kzbin.info/www/bejne/laGlZGefrcxnotk

[@kaioemanuel1939]

I love that Thais Fidelis is here, unfortunately she has been plagued with injuries and never got to show her best and i think that at this point she’s not coming back to a good shape anymore, so sad. But lets pray for her❤️

[@ghostt4634]

I would def of included Listunova 2021, Biles, Leanne, Urazova, and Ferrari.

[@pescafredda905]

and andrade's qualification 2021

[@tofarati2032]

Giorgia Villa's 2019 floor is truly one of my all time favorite gymnastics routines🥺. And the specific one you posted is a huge fave cos she made the decision mid-routine to redo that triple wolf turn, and that was one of the little things that pushed them into bronze😭🥺

[@gaodrob7938]

Both of the Triple and Double Wolf Turns were already planned in her routine if you didn't know ^^

[@tired4748]

@@gaodrob7938 it was meant to be the other way around but she realised she would only get credited for the double for the first one so she decided to do the triple second time when it was meant to be the other order

[@-sela]

@@rawendhamid3665 2018 was not even her best routine

[@MD-722]

@@rawendhamid3665 Gymnastics is a sport that involves dancing; hence why WAG floor routines are performed to music. It is incredibly challenging to be able to tumble and dance with equal profiency--which is why even those with low difficulty still can't do so. But more than that, tumbling is not why gymnastics is a sport, sports are sports because of their formats. And in the case of artistic-sports it is because they have codes of points, standardised scoring systems and objective composition requirements to be fulfilled in each exercise--whether they include dance or not. Hence why breaking is set to become an Olympic sport. Then most of all the word "gymnastics" is actually in reference to the dance elements, not the acrobatics, so how much more so the choreography? So if you like Jade Carey, that is perfectly fine--to each be their own. But dance is the primary reason that women's FX is the most watched event of any discipline in the FIG, so if a floor-worker shows a lack of proficiency in that area they will draw criticism for that.
