The HIGHEST-RATED ELEMENT in the Code of Points

[@chaoticyank5772]

I really hope when Jade throws that skill in competition, she gets more height. It scares me every time seeing her land so low. I have seen that video a million times and I am still cringing. Simone is a queen.

[@brenden6218]

Simone jumps almost 10ft in the air I doubt jade goes higher maybe 9 ft max

[@steveb.7278]

Jade’s version we’ve seen her train is actually a laid out triple double, so more difficult than Simone’s. So I wonder if she actually nails the tucked version

[@murasakino101]

@@steveb.7278 I think the original comment was referring to the triple double. Like the video stated, Jade and mikayla have both done the biles II too and they both landed it well. The triple double lay out is concerning though. Jade's landings have gotten a lot better, but the skill is hard to keep form on AND land safely on. Since she'll be doing college, I don't think we'll see it for a while, but I hope she's able to land it successfully one day. I personally think she might have done it I'm Tokyo if Simone was able to do floor finals but since she wasn't there, Jade didn't need it.

[@geraldsonofgod]

To me, Carey is the silent successor of Biles. She’s consistent, performs very difficult skills and is on her way to performing a skill more difficult than the Biles II. Now, though I believe she will be the successor, I don’t think she will be as trascendental to the sport as Simone is. I mean, let’s be honest, we won’t have another gymnast like Biles for decades from now.

[@zayx2908]

@@geraldsonofgod Just because you have one hard skill doesn’t make you a successor. Maybe a successor on floor but Jades all around program isn’t anywhere near Simone’s.

[@susandilaudo9534]

was just watching vid i took at trials of her on fx. u cant quite appreciate the physics of Simone until u c her in person. the height she generates is literally out of this world. i waz speechless then and typing this out several months later is difficult bc there simply are not words that accurately define what i saw. You know thosegiant tv cameras that move as gymnast competes? theyre like a mini crane with long arm that extends upward and are at eye level of audience sitting on 2nd or 3rd levels of arena? well in the video i have, right when she does RO BHS the camera moves upwards toward ceiling about 5 or 6 feet bc thats how far out of a regularly positioned camera shot she would be if the camera stayed put. i hope that makes sense. i dont know what those cameras or their parts are called; however, im sire they have a name, unlike the amazingness that is Simone. there is no word for it--it is simply Simone Biles. what a treasure.

@@kanyebreast6072 The COP has ruined this sport, in my opinion, by ignoring these hideous glaring errors and still scoring her first. She's destroyed the beauty of this sport by going beyond the sweet spot of difficult, artistic gymnastics with exceptional form and execution. It's not Simone's fault; she's just playing the COP but these huge mistakes and form breaks should be heavily penalized. She's just a glorified acrobat.

Anyone else know how to count the twists? Sometimes I can’t tell the difference between her double double and triple double, even in slow motion.

[@womwom6774]

Idk if this helps, but look for 2 twists in her first flip when she does the biles.

[@murasakino101]

Watch it in slow mow, it helps a lot since she's moves extremely fast in real time.

[@aslbozer5445]

simone never does the triple double after the first pass since it’s so difficult maybe you could look for that

[@MensGymnasticsAnalysis]

Watch it in slow motion, count the half twists then divide by two. It's easier at least for me. Then watch it in normal speed trying to see what you've counted. With practice you'll eventually be able to count right away most of the times or at least have a clue :)

[@kanyebreast6072]

[@funkopop7335]

Actually there is another skill too difficult that people don't do either not only bc of its difficulty but also because is too underscored, wich is dos santos II submitted by the world champion daiane dos santos. It was also a skill that they was only seen on MAG. When it comes from south america they score it low.

[@murasakino101]

That skill should at least be an H or I imo. Even dos santos herself had to pike a bit to perform the skill. Idk about men's gymnastics, but no one else in women's gymnastics has done it other than is creator and it still hasn't been performed fully laid out yet. If anyone could do it, I think it could either be Simone or Jade but I haven't seen either of them do Arabian type skills so idk if they'd ever try it

[@STKTSTKT]

@@murasakino101 didnt Simone have a Dos Santos II in her routines early in the quad? Youre right no one really does it full (Chellsoe Memmel posted a training which is the closest/beyond layout, some others hve too) but I don’t think that’s true. Also, the triple double definitely is the hardest still

[@idrisatardis5553]

Idk a lot about gymnastics but I’m hoping that the great advancement in the last decade is due to the fact that there’s more of an emphasis on wellness now than ever before rather than just coaches pushing gymnasts to their breaking point. They are great gymnasts making history for sure but I’d really also want to see them flourish as human beings ❤️

Gymnastics IS a sport to test endurance, strength, flexibility, control over your body, control over the laws of physics, muscular tone and conditioning, and to inspire other people to keep their own bodies in FANTASTIC shape.

It takes an insane amount of power and technique to fit 3 twists into 2 saltos. It’s not merely an “apparatus change” that allowed for this skill to even happen.

[@jordansefton]

I think that’s harsh and unnecessary. A lot of gymnasts today are graceful, and a lot have great technique. You’re clearly just bitter, I’d rather be watching this era of gymnastics where they’re allowed to basically do as they please, rather than watching 14 yr old girls be starved and forced to do the same basic routine, or the exact same tumbles in their optionals. Sorry but there’s pros and cons to both and for you to phrase this the way you have just makes you sound bitter because you can’t have what you want now. Gymnastics is still an amazing sport and you discrediting athlete’s hard work is just laughable. Could you do either gymnastics back then or now? No I didn’t think so

It's great to see innovation in tumbling, but if the Code awarded equally difficult dance and control aspects of the sport it would become more balanced and encourage gymnasts who excell at the more precise aspects.
