Event (FIG) Fig World Challenge Cup in Paris

I've honestly dreamed of seeing the whip double layout punch front for basically the whole time I've been watching gymnastics. I didn't think she'd be the one to do it, though.

Exactly the same here -- those Atler/Maloney-era dreams finally come true!

Seems like it's almost verboten in these parts to praise Voinea, but this routine was very exciting to me.

And ... a competitive FX with no wolf turn. Surely that deserves a little credit.

L-hop full on beam would, I think, be easier than a cat leap full by a long ways and should be at least a letter value easier than a wolf hop full

Don't agree at all. People already had some issues with keeping their leg at horizontal through the full turn when doing it on floor. Now we expect it to happen on beam, with a steady landing? That's certainly a D skill and not something I would recommend to anyone.

On the reputation meter +5 for the floor exercise but still getting downgraded weekly for her awful mother.

Isn't a wolf hop full only a C? I can't see an L-full being more than a B. I haven't studied values much in the current FIG code but there's no way it's even close to harder than the shape that requires more.

Wolf hops and jumps have been considered to be the same element and have the same value since the 2001-2005 COP.
