If she competes that in a world cup, it becomes the Disidore, yes?

Yes, I believe so.

Wow! That looks better than I would have predicted! Good for her!

 

[Passion]

Love the leg form.

Amelia announced her retirement from elite a few months back

Does Jake Jarman compete this?

I love this and the Disidore would have been such a fabulous element name.

"His" skill is double layout 3.5 twists.

That is beautifully done. Maybe they can tempt her into the new Scam cup next year just to get it named. I think a world cup counts doesn't it?

It’s not a World Cup event. Also who is “they”? USAG? No one cares about named elements other than (some) gymnasts. Although I think even then, fans care about it more

Amelia is at Florida now. American Cup is the middle of the NCAA season. We have no idea how old those videos are, and all but one of the clips is performed on a rod floor. Like, it's cool and all, but the idea of her coming back to elite in the near future, let alone performing a 2.5 twisting double tuck, seems extremely unlikely.

This particular Youtube content creator specializes in random and often misleading compilations of gymnastics videos that they just lift from instagram and recycle with almost no regard for chronology. And yet... their click-baity titles always get me, so they know what they're doin'.
