Last clip is fantastic.

She lacked the skills and people lacked the common sense to stop her from attempting the vault.

@Mattteus *ungainly

I understand a lot of skill is needed to perform a side flip but they look so ungainy

The first one is so elegant, how is it called?

Most of these were just not in regulation with the stupid new 'CoP

Julissa was injured attempting a Yurchenko - her coach (guess who) made it clear that to get into the elite (ie Olympic squad)] she needed to master it. Sadly, it was not the difficulty of the element so much as she simply didn't have the vaulting skills nor (most importantly) the necessary size/strength to safely attempt it. Such physical limitations of female gymnasts is recognised hence the ban on those variations.

Probably because if you would land wrong, the beam would hurt your back/back off the neck pretty hard, because when you flip off the beam, if you are too close, the back off the neck will touch the beam and that's dangerous cuz u can paralyze >.O
