Interesting to watch this routine from '11 and see her improvement on the landing. She now has much more power and grace in her routine. She's much better now.
@JohnPhilipSousa519 yea, i heard she's even upgrading to a 1.5 to double arabian tuck to punch front layout, and a dos santos pike to a punch front tuck/pike. absolutely amazing!
Ah, yes I didn't consider that she didn't stick any of these tumbles and that jumping out would take away a -.1 hop. Thanks for reminding me, TheGymSavant. Even still, this was Afanasyeva's final. In London, Afanasyeva was prepping a double layout + stag so the same thing could be said again about her in Tokyo. The "if" game isn't entirely relevant.
@happyari13 I saw that particular training video but I don't remember if she did just a tucked double arabian to layout or a 1.5 to double arabian to layout. If she did, that would be simply incredible! Well whatever she does will be amazing, especially the Dos Santos to punch front. I don't recall ever seeing that done in combination!
I love this routine, but the people talking really just need to SHUT UP! They are so annoying, its hard for me just to watch this without getting irritated

15.00 in Worlds and a 15.80 in the Visa Championships. I think she will win 1st in the Olympics!
She is now the 2012 Olympic Champion on this event :) Congrats on your gold
For sure!!!! and its choreographed well for her. She can really work this music well.

I LOVE HER CHOREO
By far the best tumbler in the world right now. She has absolutely no competition.
I love her floor routine
i agree. i think the saddest 4th she got was in the all around at the olympics.
Love her she always inspires me
Her career is just spammed with fourths. Finally a bronze and well deserved.

Pretty and good.
if she just added the split jump after her arabian double pike she would have won gold
Wow. She is amazing. BUT THIRD? Oh c'mon thats gotta be a first!
but then she got bronze on beam and gold on floor, she said she wouldn't change anything about the Olympics
2:42
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if she did a split jump out of one of her tumbling passes she would of gotten first
No she wouldn't have CassidyMcComb2010. She'd be second.
Jewish, Still goes HAM anyway.
Best meme ever.
