Biles wows fans with video of daring vault
Los Angeles, February 7
Simone Biles, the most decorated American gymnast with 30 Olympics and World Championship medals, has excited fans with a four-second video clip of a training vault no woman has performed in competition.
The 22-year-old reigning world and Olympics all-around champion showed off a Yurchenko double pike vault and landed in a pit of red foam-like bricks with the Twitter caption “2020?” and three sets of widened eyeballs. The video had been viewed more than 2.3 million times. The vault features a back handspring onto the vault, then two flips in the air with her legs straight. — PTI
