Simone made it look so easy that I decided that I'd give it a try....the doctors have recommended several rehabilitation centers to help me recover from my paralysis.

[@donhayward1940]

Lol 😂😂😂

You know what….

[@camillegottholm606]

Lol

[@demetraglenn923]

***** ..I'm over here lmao!!..Thanks for the laugh this morning!!...How about being a comedian instead, might be safer!!!

[@LuKasAV6]

DEMETRA GLENN Yeah, Demetra, I think you're right - LOL!

[@OPpeters]

I love how she smiles! So many gymnasts are so serious and it's so nice to see one look so happy!

[@bergercookie]

I'm totally thinking the same thing , she really enjoys her sport and it adds to her routines that she's a very special and talented gymnast

[@sabatarodger9929]

true

[@NanaPelletier]

Gymstatic14 It's contagious and I find myself smiling just as big, while watching her. I'm excited to watch her journey to Rio. She is definitely one of our best gymnast of all time. She turned the sport up a notch or two.

[@dollylynruth]

+Gymstatic14 You can literally see her passion and drive, it is amazing. Stunning performances, fierce.

[@mocneeuq]

I know right and some fans associate that serious look as artistry. Please. I'd rather see a gymnast who smiles, than those who looks like hell came upon them. Must be one of the reason why Biles is on top. She is enjoying her own sport.

[@LuKasAV6]

0:05 Even her blink was on-point. Love it~

[@TheSquirrelGurl10]

she makes it look so effortless!! I'm speechless

[@FlipFlyTumble]

at the end she said "I whipped my double lay" Such a beautiful routine and the first thing she did was give herself a correction! I love how down to earth she is :)

[@jazmyndebono4927]

A lot of these gymnasts are amazing at what the do from years of hard work, but it will never top the sheer amount of talent Simone has for gymnastics, she was made for this sport!!

She's amazing, her double layout was beautiful and her whole routine was just perfect.

[@granttwilliam]

Her third pass was almost a Whip + DD. Could've been a 7.0 sv! Crazy, she did it so well. Should think about adding that whip!

[@ronniejoe4108]

***** I think she should keep her routine just the way it is.

[@e2theeyepie]

Ronnie Joe I don't think Simone would be in agreement with you...

[@blakegillpuente3904]

Ronnie Joe I mean, I don't think she should bother doing it if she can't do it safely or do it well, but if she's already doing it, why not? Lol

[@robertferguson2091]

The only way you can fly like that is if you've got wings. Are angels eligible for Rio?

[@tumblintwinstarz2506]

Haha, well Simone is definitely an angel through gymnastics and personality

[@KatieCarlson16]

PLGC Group ikr! She is a sweetie :)

[@vettegaddia6234]

Robert Ferguson Wait a minute...did she just do THREE G moves? This is the hardest FX I've ever seen from a woman!

[@vettegaddia6234]

***** Yes, I can't wait until she unveils a Moor.

[@vettegaddia6234]

***** Even if Biles is a man...which she definitely is NOT, she's still in a class of her own. NEVER in my life have I encounter a more powerful gymnast with her consistancy--the only exception being Kohei Uchimura. And we all know about him...

[@Sanchara]

Her tumbling is phenomenal!! I think if she got a lesson or two with Rachel Brice on her choreography this routine would be pure magic.

[@DYWK]

it is already magic!!!

[@denisepau4582]

can't wait to see her kick butt next year in rio!!

[@kawaiinekokawaiineko7849]

in fact she took the first place

[@dawnsolomon55]

The Serena Williams of Gymnasts. This young lady is about to dominate!

[@presleypeggy5504]

+Dawn Solomon true

[@vettegaddia6234]

+Dawn Solomon Biles is more than great, she may the greatest female gymnast ever. Some say Nadia because she was so far ahead of anyone in 1976. Biles has now upgraded her first pass to a double layout with the twist in the 2nd layout. Her V is still not doing a Cheng Fei though. I do not know why she can not land it. She has upgraded her UB and I saw her practicing an Arabian on BB. If Biles puts in an Arabian and still do her front somi with a half. It will be by far the hardest BB routine in the World. And she can win BB with a fall. On BB, Biles will have 2 F and one G. No one who is in contention of a World medal on BB can do a G, currently. And Biles;s G is connected to two ffs. As for the men, I do NOT think anyone will deny the complete dominance that Kohei has for winning the 2012 Olympics AA titles AND SIX consecutive World Championship AA titles plus a silver in the 2008 Olympics in the the AA BTW, Shirai just increase his DD on FX by adding a perfectly straight double layout 3/1...the most difficult pass you can do on FX with a H rating. That makes his max difficulty level at a ridiculous 7.7 without doing a roll out. He intends to upgrade to a 8.0 by the next Worlds. Shirai can do this by doing either a layout Thomas or a Ri Jong Song(double tuck with 3 twists which is easy for him instead of one of his triple twists. Kohei downgraded his FX to a 6.5. He said he did not need a higher start value to win the AA and there is no way he can beat Shirai anyway on FX. I a;m shocked that Kohei downgrades his very difficult Li X at 6.2 to a mere Y.2.5 at 5.6 while Shirai may win V with his upgrade to a Li X at 6.2 and aY.3.5 at 6.4 And he is far cleaner than the Koreans. But Kohei increased his difficult on PH, HB and added a double front 1/2(F) as his PB dismount just as Shirai did. I can not wait to see the next WC. Unfortunately, I saw the Russians in practice, and if they do not peak by WC, they will not medal. The Chinese have increased their level of difficulty already. And the Brits are looking very good in both the men and women side. I have not seen the Romanias doing well. I really miss their legendary legacy.

[@angielin1479]

+Vette gaddia good news for you! Simone has FINALLY started practicing the Cheng Fei and hopefully she'll compete it!

Way to go Simone Biles...Gabby and the rest of the ladies are going to have to step their game up, or they will be out of the competition before it start. #Houstonbaby#Spring..way to rep the hometown and in Rio rep'ing #USA

[@kellyl470]

I love watching floor routines. I met Dominic Zito (lead choreographer for US women's gymnastics team) several times. He's from Cleveland OH & comes to a casino where I work. He said he's working w/ 18 different girls righr now. He's so interesting to talk to. Last time I saw him he said "yeah...I was just working w/ Gabby this week..." I love asking him about the gymnasts. Alicia Sacramone is my personal favorite & he said she's very cool & laid back. I wish I could just be his personal assistant or something so I could travel around & meet all these gymnasts. I've always had such great respect for them & the amount of work they put in. Can't wait for Rio!!! #TeamUSA2016 #GOLD

[@leo.lefevre]

with the power out of that double lay (full) simone defintely has it in her to do a moors, or maybe upgrade the moors and just do a triple double lay? that would be amazing -she should train it! then we'll have to call it the "simone" ;)

[@brandonapter6148]

she is so cool

[@e2theeyepie]

Wouldn't it be a hoot if, by the time Rio comes around, Simone's FX consisted of four variations of the double layout? -- Moors -- Double Layout, Full Out -- Biles (+ jump) -- Double Layout One can dream, LOL -- but seriously, I think she's got it in her to pull that off.

[@TheGymnastic101]

Sounds great, but if you either replace the Double Layout with a Dos Santos (layout double arabian) or get rid of the double layout completely and put a silivas between the chuso and the biles it would be total BEAST MODE!

[@e2theeyepie]

OH WOW! I like your dream layout much better. :D

[@TheGymnastic101]

e2theeyepie I just finished planning Simone's dream routines on paper. The D-Scores are Vault : 6.8/6.4 - 6.6 Bars: 7.1 Beam: 7.4 Floor: 7.9 Can't wait to make the videos.

[@tylerkihm8131]

***** she's already in beast mode, if she pulled off what you're suggesting she would be a legend.

[@TheGymnastic101]

Tyler Kihm Dude. 6.8 d score is already legend. The only thing higher on the scale is Simone.

[@aarontse2014]

that third pass with the double double. how much deductions would she get for chest being low?

[@gymlandia4467]

Wow

[@EdGringo78]

Now, I hope she can hold off the Russians, and pull out another all around win for us in Rio!! I still hope McKayla Maroney can hold out and finally get HER vault gold in Rio.

[@beyoncestan101]

Ugh no Russian gymnast is remotely close to being in n her level

[@liukin95]

EdGringo78 The Russians are doing everything they can to catch the US team and really seem to be the only team who are hungry for it. China is really just going with the flow and Romania wonders if they'll even make the podium nowadays. So far they have 2 Amanars (Paseka and Afanasyeva) and 3 Amanars in the works (Mustafina, Komova and Tutkhalyan and possibly Melnikova too) so they're really trying to up their D scores to match the US team.

[@blahblah2176]

She indeed did get the W for the US

[@MyFusao]

sansacional

[@LilPetit]

So if she adds the Moors and performs it better which I know she can. Then a change should be made.

[@sunilgautam1345]

Nice

[@bediebedia9373]

manifique

[@jordansefton]

Still don't think it should have been 9.2 execution yes her tumbles and leaps are done extremely well but her landings, not so much (apart from the double double)

[@nchllltmr]

Jordan Sefton I agree, but the scores always swell for Americans at the American Cup. However, I dont think it would actually matter in simone's case; she couldve taken another step on each of her landings but her difficulty and execution are such that she still woulddve blown everyone out of the park, haha

[@JosephCampanella614]

Her chest was low on her double double. So while it was a good landing, she still would've had a tenth or two taken off there. She can get away with it because her difficulty is so high. Most gymnasts perform the equivalent of an E rated skill here, some have an F equivalent, but Biles pulls an H.

[@destiny236231]

+nchllltmr The scores aren't just inflated for Americans, they're pretty inflated for everyone. Although I do think this routine of a Simone's was a bit over scored with all the large bounces and I believe it's sort of like Ashton Locklear where they are so blown away by the difficulty that they don't pay as much attention to the large hops or low landings. But I do think her judging in worlds in qualifications was on point.

[@MrJungleWarrior]

WOW!

[@fe-ne1ri]

I am directing this to someone who knows gymnastics and is not bias. Is there even much competition for Biles if she stays uninjured until Rio and continues like this? I am serious, is there any realistic contenders to take gold from her? I understand anything can happen THAT day, but it is kind of taking the excitement out of Rio AA for me. She is just too good.

[@mocneeuq]

Yes We know Biles is on top of right now and can be unbeatable come Rio 2016 if she stays healthy and as good as this. But for me personally, it does not take the excitement come Rio because every gymnasts from other countries is trying to catch up on her and wants to be the one to beat Biles plus all this fans of the other gymnasts tries and prays so hard for Biles to fail and always tear her apart on artistry etc, I am excited on Biles proving them wrong and taking those medals in Rio and letting them eat those words.

[@Thebeautybox56]

No 2nd at worlds this year was gabby Douglas so was 1 point behind and simone had a really bad day she touched beam went out of bounds on floor and took a few steps on vault , in qualifications she was 4 points ahead

[@ctssam7008]

I don't think. in MAG Full Twising Double Layout -> E Double Layout Half out -> D Double Double Tuck -> E Full Twisting Double Tuck -> D No F Element through her routine and no CV

[@giovannit9057]

[@ctssam7008]

Men's Artistic Gymnastics

[@MzKaylcC]

cts sam but men don't have to do dance skill, if Simone could just tumble I think she could do a double double layout, all the passes she showed here plus a side combo pass

[@mennatarek762]

what level , ✋

[@eunicefotso5614]

Wowwwww

[@MrPatetiiko]

please, this is artistic gymnastic? lol

[@europamale]

+Andrés Pérez What you consider or deem to be "Artistic" obviously differs from other peoples' perspective. Many people do not consider Picasso paintings as artistic; so, therefore, the meaning of artistry is open to interpretation. As a world class gymnast, her movements are incredibly accurate and fluent laced with "Artistic" motions!

[@Romanse1]

+Andrés Pérez Pure old-school artistry doesn't cut it anymore in today's gymnastics world. Open your eyes and at least acknowledge that this is a new world order for ALL gymnasts.

[@kristiankowalski8922]

I know everyone is all for Simone as the best tumbler in the world, but has anyone seen Sae Miyakawa's new routine?? Yeah she won't ever beat Simone but Sae can tumble just as good

[@JosephCampanella614]

It's awesome! But she doesn't get the amplitude of Biles, and unfortunately her dance skills aren't as difficult. But that layout to double front - LOVE it! Rio's going to be interesting!

[@vettegaddia6234]

Kristian Kowalski No one can come within 1 point of Biles in Worlds.

[@kristiankowalski8922]

Yes people can come within one point of Biles....that would mean if Biles hit a 15.7 no one could score 14.7..and in terms of D score, there are already gymnasts with 6.7 d scores now

[@vettegaddia6234]

Kristian Kowalski I'm talking about coming within ONE point of Biles in the AA. After 4 events, no one could come close to her if she hits. Even if she does not hit beam(the only place she can miss), she will still win because of her extreme high DD on V and FX. I believe she has a 6.3 V and a 7.0 SV on FX. And her amplitude is so extreme that it would make her execution score sky high even if she takes a step.

[@kristiankowalski8922]

This stream is about floor, not All Around...also what I saw at the European games was very compelling..Komova is back, she didn't perform well but good enough to make her point, as for Mustafina she performed underwhelming but is still at 58.898
