video montage of NAMED skills

This is a terrific clip with examples, sometimes the originator, of skills that are named after female artistic gymnasts.

Shame the “flash” format of YouTube video makes it so difficult to see exactly what they are doing.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Leave a comment if you know of the same video posted anywhere else in a better video format.

Also, there is a good discussion in the YouTube page comments. I agree there are too many skills named after women with only slight variations in body position or degree of twist. The FIG Men’s code has been more restrained.
