Olympic Vault Final – Simone, Rebeca, Jade

The medalist order most predicted.

No controversy today.

1. Simone Biles, United States, 15.300
2. Rebeca Andrade, Brazil, 14.966
3. Jade Carey, United States, 14.466
4. An Chang Ok, North Korea, 14.216
5. Valentina Georgieva, Bulgaria, 13.983
6. Ellie Black, Canada, 13.933
7. Yeo Seojeong, South Korea, 13.416
8. Shallon Olsen, Canada, 13.366

Yurchenko Double Pike should be valued much higher, in my opinion.

Simone Biles & Mckayla Maroney

Simone’s Yurchenko – fingers in

Exactly how we should introduce this Vault with beginners.

Later. MUCH later. There might be reasons to block with fingers facing out.

Leaving a mat only 5 metres behind the Vault table is obviously way too close for Simone. 😀

U.S. Olympic trials day 1.

Helen Kevric – 4 apparatus

Helen is qualified to Paris.

And we should expect her to qualify for the AA Final.

I like her leaps, in particular.
