Grigoras – tucked front 1/2 on Beam

Peng-Peng is back. The gymternet is happy. 🙂

Before the London Olympics she competed a crazy Beam routine. It included this element done from a full speed running the length of the Beam.

That’s from Pushy Queen’s GIF Skill Guide.

She typically landed like this. Heels OVER the end of the Beam. I was terrified to watch.

In the gym Christine was training harder routines than in competition. One of the upgrades was this Grigoras … to connected back tuck. GAINERING that back tuck to stay on the Beam. I was triple terrified to watch. And thrilled.

What a shame she didn’t get to compete the London Olympics. 😦
