Defying Gravity – part 4/6
You need YouTube Premium to watch the episodes 3-6.
My favourite episode of the first four.
I love seeing Grace and Jade in the Gym. Best interviews I’ve seen, so far.
Vault is the featured apparatus. They did not hold back on the terrible truth that competition landings on this event are very, very dangerous. Ellie Black and others were interviewed on injuries.

I don’t understand why FIG has never tried to improve vault landing mats.
