"good catch by Coach Nunno"

I really didn't see him catch anything.

For the last time, Tim Daggett: That is NOT called "the Miller"!

Good routine. Well done!

[LaurenAlexandra711]

I think he mostly rotated her by her legs so she landed on her back instead of her head

[katie66bug]

If it's not the "Miller" then what is it? Am I missing something? LOL I think Nunno helped to break Shannon's fall a little bit...didn't look like a catch to me either...:)

@MistRDonuT94 Yes, in WAG it's the Chusovitina. I once saw the skill referred to as a "Thomas" in MAG, but in my youth I read a lot of gymnastics books with less-than-accurate info so I assume you're right.

[MistRDonuT94]

@HeyButtahfly isnt it a chusovitina in women's gymnastics? i know its called a quast in men's

@MissAliciaDee The skill you're talking about is actually a back flip 1/4 turn immediate half pirouette to split, and it was never named after her officially.

@omegalavender I actually thought it was a little over scored, same score as chow who had more difficult and original skills.
