Daiane dos Santos - Arabian Double Front Layout

The Brazilian Gymnast performing the most dificult floor routine (Double Arabian Layout). Daiane is the only woman in the world who has performed a double Arabian somersault in all three positions: tuck, piked and layout. She showed that she is one of the best specialist on the floor. Her temperament is extremely explosive.

If level 10 can perform it, why dos Santos is the only one that performed it on Olympics and Worlds?

She's always amazing, but this might be one of her best performances. I really wish she'd gotten a medal at the Olympics. She's so much more interesting than the girls who did.

@JohnPhilipSousa519 Grishina's floor marks out of a 5.5 but she executes stupendously! Her bars was 6.5 as of 2010, her beam was pretty good too! I heard she might be training an Amanar but she was never a strong vaulter so I don't know... I hate the 5 per team! It's crazy! They have the difficulty, it's the execution that kills them! I thought Musty's Amanar was great in 2010! Terrible form, but I think that was the most amplitude I've seen on that vault! This year it was lower. Too bad. :(

@ShawnVikaKomova2012 I know Grishna is fabulous on bars, but anything else? I know she has a killer floor routine, though. Besides, I think its stupid that only 5 can be on a team. That's just plain ridiculous. But jeez Aleksandrov had better clean up those two. They have already shown their talent, but they really need to improve their form. Honestly I wasn't surprised when Musty got hurt, since she seemed to just chuck her Amanar. Unfortunately, it was only a matter of time... :(

[ShawnVikaKomova2012]

@JohnPhilipSousa519 I think it's a bit of a Russian trio. Grishina might steal Mustafina's spotlight as time rolls on. 1996 and 2000 were pretty crazy IMO. Poor Khorki getting upset both times. Actually, I could potentially even see Mustafina, Komova, and Grishina doing all events! They really only need those three! Pavlova will be there. I guarantee it. Nabs will be there too. Someone once posted a comment saying that maybe Aleksandrov will clean up Nabs and Musty after seeing Musty's injury.

@ShawnVikaKomova2012 If the Russian duo are healthy, then they should win team gold. I'm all for USA winning, but I want them to fight for it like in 1996 or 2007. But if Mustafina and Komova do all 4 events in TF, then that will be 2/3 of the score right there, with two gymnasts!!!! I hope Pavs gets onto the team! I love her gymnastics. I saw the video of her all around and she's making good progress so far. And Nabieva....what a character. That's all I can say about her hahaha.

Jessica Savona of Canada ahas competed all three positions of araiban double so she is no longer the only one

@JohnPhilipSousa519 Continued. springy as the Americans were used to and it sort of was Mattie's fault for losing. However, I'm more than estatic that the Russians won and I can't wait to see total dominance in 2012 with hopefully a healthy Mustafina and Komova, and Grishina, Pavlova, and Dementyeva. That's my guess on the team unless Sidorova takes Pavlova's spot or Nabieva somehow cleans up her skills.
