I actually think that this is a gorgeous routine, but I’m not nearly as impressed with that lunged position double twist as everyone else seems to be. I think if she kept her arms in one place throughout the twist that I would buy it as a double turn, but when she is constantly moving her arms in a way that looks like she’s about to touch down and catch herself and stop the twist then it just looks like a cheated, forced skill. I wouldn’t give that credit for more than a single twist.
