why she did a two and a half? she should do a whip triple.

[fabogymnastics]

The commentator thinks that she wanted to connect this two and a half with another skill

[vivelagym]

i think she was supposed to do the whip-triple, but she accidentally did a back handspring, and it all messed up her concentration so she stopped her twist in the triple.

[AnnaPavlovaFan]

I think she was trying to upgrade (2½-punch front as her combination pass, whip-triple twist as her 3rd) to make up for the fall on BB. It didn't pay off, unfortunately...

@MegaSpiderman5000 I love that skill, it's a Straddle Jump with a Full Turn to Front Support. It is worth a 0.2 in gymnastics.

[MegaSpiderman5000]

can someone please tell me what the move was when she dropped to the floor at 1:28

[ParanoidAndroidDA]

I wish Pavlova. Cheng and Sacramone had all had the Olympic experience they wanted and were capable of

Dude, she mess the routine, but 13.850 was a very low score. Even with that mistake, Anna deserved a score highter than 14.000.

[MadeleinePhillips666]

@mowill50 I think she just missed that whip + triple twist. When she reminded, was too late.

I think Anna does quite well with this music [but I'm a huge fan of hers, so I tend to be biased!]

[synchrohobbit]

I don't understand why they use music in floor routines. Very, very occasionally they do a move or two that might go with it, but on the whole it doesn't make any sense...unless of course they just need some sort of auditory timer.

@TikiBoy382 It's weird because she really looks like she is going to punch front. It is more weird when you know that whip to triple was her second pass in Athens. I don't really know what she meant to do. I can't imagine she forgot the whip. I mean she's been doing it for 6 years as her second pass.

@SvetlanaBaitovaFan I dont really think that she would get the triple around as her third pass....She wanted to do 2 1/2 punch front layout,and probably went too far with her round off and Bhs,so she saw that she is going to go out of bounds...I dont know....she got 0.30 for that second pass....both legs out....but she didnt land outside...that would be 0.50...But i dont know why the score was that low....And i dont think that she wanted to do whip triple...thats my opinion...

[MdrnDncr87]

my problem with her is how inconsistent she is
