Are we about to get another move named after Simone Biles after the Tokyo Olympics?
There are, after all, two floor exercise moves named “the Biles” and “the Biles II.” There’s a vault and balance beam moved named “The Biles.”
And now, there could be “The Biles II” in the vault, the Yurchenko double pike that she nailed earlier this year.
During practice in Tokyo on Thursday, she hit the move again. Even though she took a step back in the dismount, it was still stunning as ever. The slow motion look at it shows how much unbelievable height she got:
