where is shannon miller 1992 olympics AA vault 1? That has to be somewhere in the rankings! it was the most beautiful vault ever

[javajunkie6]

It's in there. All of these are in need of some re-rankings. There are a lot of others that I want to add and a lot of stuff that I want to change about the order of this. I was relying a little too much on difficulty and too little on execution when I first made it.

Are double fronts considered difficult vaults?

[javajunkie6]

yes, it's the highest difficulty vault ever done by a woman-- only Produnova has ever done it.

The triple twisting yurchenko is a 7.2 (but it's never been competed), the Amanar is a 6.5 and the handspring double front is a 7.1.
