+Aislinn G Maybe because the Olympics are in Brazil and so they're trying to go for a party-type sounding music? I don't know, that's the best I've got lol
+Ilise Angel I think she was trying to pike it down so she would land in bounds because she knew she was going to land way out. However, the .3 for landing with both feet out would have been way less than counting the fall...
+iPhone6SGymnast2003 it looks to me like she landed with bent knees and her chest folded more than half way down while leaning forward with her hands in front of her. And she was leaning forward, so you can't just "hop" out of it. She probably rolled to save her ankles from the landing.
+iPhone6SGymnast2003 Yes but I'm guessing it wasn't the Olympic year and your trying not to get injured so you can represent your country in 2016. I'm not saying it wasn't possible, but she also landed with what looked like to be locked knees so she probably rolled out not to risk injury. Yes, she probably could've hopped out and saved it but she didn't probably to avoid more landing deductions than a fall would've given her. Like Yao Jinnan in 2012 QF Floor.
whats up with the burlesque floor music?? like 3 of the girls had it. and tabea is great, wish she hadn't fallen but that was a very artistic save!
I think afanasyeva started the trend

+lkfredd You should see how many times Yao Jinnan has done it😂
I think this is why Team Germany didn't use her on floor during Rio. Who agrees?
Such a nice save but sadly still counted as a fall ;-;

Well, she already landed before she fell so technically she could've stood it upp
+iPhone6SGymnast2003 Um pause on her landing. I don't think she could've stood that up... Especially without stepping out of bounds.

Why the hell would- wait I just realized Germany let Seitz do a Def
+iPhone6SGymnast2003 what's a Def?
+jennyendlessly yesh I'm wondering that too.
+A Ka +jennyendlessly It's a release on bars. You do one and a half twist before catching the bar again.
oh yes I saw Seitz doing it , hasn't youna dufournet done it too?
Yes, she also used to do it.
