Andy Thornton remembers London Phillips:

… Some have already been naming Biles as the first gymnast to perform this skill (assuming she competes it in tonight’s competition).

That second pass was a 1 ½ twisting double back! And to this day I can’t think of too many gymnasts – if any – who have competed a front layout to double front as a DISMOUNT! Wow. We didn’t hear too much from London after that, but I wanted to credit her as having competed this difficult and innovative skill nearly a full decade ago. …
