Is Biles about to perform another new move at Olympics?

By
simone biles

Simone Biles is making her return to Olympic competition on Sunday even more hotly anticipated with the possibility she may perform another new move.

The American, the most decorated gymnast in history with 37 world and Olympic medals, will get the first chance to try to get an uneven bars skill named after her in the women’s qualifying event at Paris 2024.

The 27-year-old already has five other eponymous skills but this would be the first one on bars and would make her the only active female gymnast to have one on all four apparatus.

She submitted the original skill to the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) technical committee last week and so if she performs it cleanly here in Paris, it will bear her name.

How to watch Simone Biles go for Olympic gold -- again

Biles is back on the Olympic stage three years after pulling out of several events at the last Games in Tokyo with the ‘twisties’ – a disorientating mental block.

She already announced her arrival as a huge favourite to add to her seven Olympic medals when she nailed her Biles II vault in podium training on Thursday – the most recent of the skills named after her.

She and her American team have been keen to keep the pressure off her at these Games, with her coach fulfilling media commitments on her behalf and the gymnast herself being reassured that she does not need to compete in all events.

Bars would be the most likely one she would opt out of – with it being her ‘weakest’, if you can call an apparatus on which she has a world silver medal. Perhaps you can if ‘just’ one out of 30 world medals has come on bars.

However, with this new skill in the mix, that now seems unlikely.

She is scheduled to begin her qualification round at 10:40 BST on Sunday, the session after Great Britain’s women begin their Olympic campaign (08:30 BST)

FIG describes the uneven bars skill as “a clear hip circle forward with one-and-a-half turns to handstand”.

In other words, when she starts in a handstand on the upper bar, the American would dip her body to travel around the bar and then rise back into a handstand before doing one and a half pirouettes (540 degrees) and then stop to hold a handstand position.

The governing body says if she attempts the skill it is likely to be at the beginning of her routine where she performs a Weiler. The new skill is a variation of the one first done by Canadian gymnast Wilhem Weiler.

“In order for the move to be named for her, Biles will have to perform it without a major fault at some phase of the competition in Paris,” said FIG, which has given it a difficulty value of 0.5 points.

What skills does Biles have named after her?

Biles already has five elements named after her – two vaults, two floor tumbling skills and a beam dismount.

Only Soviet five-time Olympic champion Nellie Kim has more, with seven.

Biles’ most recent eponymous skill – the Biles II vault – was on show in podium training at the Bercy Arena in Paris on Thursday, where she landed it perfectly.

She only added this skill – a Yurchenko double pike – last year and so if she performs it at these Games that would also be an Olympic first.

The five skills she has named after her are:

Biles on floor: double layout with half-twist ie a double somersault in stretched position with a half twist (named after her in 2013)

Biles II on floor: triple-twisting double somersault (named after her in 2019)

Biles on vault: round-off on to springboard, back handspring with half-turn on to vault, followed by double-twisting somersault in stretched position (named after her in 2018)

Biles II on vault: Round-off on to board, back handspring on to vault, then double somersault in piked position (named after her in 2023)

Biles on beam: double-double dismount ie a double-twisting, double

The first glimpse of Simone Biles in Paris proved her brilliance is back

By
simone biles

The last time Simone Biles attempted to vault in a competition arena at the Olympic Games, all hell broke loose. As Biles launched herself into her extremely difficult Amanar vault, she completely lost track of herself in the air, only managing one and a half twists instead of the planned two and a half. After withdrawing from the team final, Biles would spend most of her Olympic experience in the stands.

Three years on, Biles returned to the Olympic competition floor on Thursday morning as the women’s gymnastics teams worked their way through podium training, the one chance that gymnasts will have to train inside the Bercy Arena before the gymnastics competitions begin with the men’s qualifications on Saturday.

In her third rotation of the day, Biles flitted down the vault runway before launching herself on to the springboard with a back handspring. The 27-year-old increased her upward momentum by rebounding off the top of the vault table and wrapping in two piked backwards somersaults. She landed with her chest upright, her feet completely still: “Perfect! We’ll take this one in a heartbeat. It was really good,” said a smiling Cécile Canqueteau-Landi, one of Biles’s coaches, afterwards.

Days before the gymnastics competition begins, Biles has already produced one of the greatest pieces of gymnastics the Olympics has ever seen. Her Yurchenko Double Pike vault, which has been officially known as the Biles II since she unveiled it internationally at the world championships last year, is one of the hardest skills in the sport. No other female gymnast in the world vaults with enough power, strong technique or repulsion off the table to even think about attempting the vault. It is also one of the most difficult vaults in the men’s code of points.

Difficult skills are often produced at the detriment of form and technique, with gymnasts often having to force their hardest skills around, leading to issues like crossed legs or low chests on their landing which receive significant judging deductions. Not only has Biles shown that she can consistently perform the vault, she does so with near impeccable form, her legs squeezed tightly together and completely straight at the knee.

The Biles II requires no twisting and so last year, as she began her comeback after taking a break from the sport, Biles opted to re-introduce the vault in part because she still lacked confidence in her twisting following the mental block she suffered in Tokyo. It is reflective of Biles’s greatness that her idea of easing her way back into the sport was attempting one of the most difficult skills possible.

Such is the challenge this vault presents, Biles still had to mentally come to terms with executing it. Having debuted the vault in US competitions in 2019, last year Biles only attempted it with her other coach, Laurent Landi, standing beside her on the competition podium. Gymnasts receive an automatic neutral deduction of .5 points if their coach is on the competition floor during the routine.

After nailing the vault throughout last summer, Biles fell attempting it in the world championships vault final and she finished in second place behind Rebeca Andrade of Brazil. Even her errors are somehow impressive; she fell because she actually had too much power for the skill. The vault commands such a high start value (6.4) that without the automatic half-point deduction, Biles would have won the vault final with a fall. This year, with many more months of training behind her, she now attempts the skill without any coach nearby.

The objective of podium training is for gymnasts to adjust to the equipment on the field of play, which often feels significantly different on an elevated podium, and the dynamics of the arena as they finish their preparations. It was clear from Biles’s performance on Thursday that she was ready and relaxed on all pieces as she worked her way through the four apparatus with no issues.

While Biles was focused on the job at hand, she also laughed and chatted with her teammates Jordan Chiles, Suni Lee, Jade Carey and Hezly Rivera, the former three gymnasts all returning from Tokyo to form one of the most experienced teams the US has ever boasted.

After a strong day of training, the US team, led by Biles, marched through the weaving mixed zone without stopping, their coaches delegated to speak with the media. They have been here before and in the qualification round on Sunday morning they will attempt to re-establish their dominance at the Olympics.

Difficult vaulting was a common theme on Thursday as the Bercy Arena witnessed the return of the Amanar vault. The Amanar, also known as the Yurchenko two and a half, was one of the defining skills of women’s gymnastics around a decade ago, an essential element that separated the top contenders from the rest. In addition to its significant number of twists, the vault finishes with a forward landing, meaning the gymnast cannot see the ground before the landing.

But in recent years it has faded from view. In Tokyo, few other than Biles and Andrade, arguably the two greatest ever vaulters, attempted an Amanar, and Andrade has not performed it outside of an Olympic Games in nearly a decade. The International Gymnastics Federation controversially chose to lower the difficulty of the vault, leading many to conclude that it was no longer worth attempting such a difficult and dangerous vault.

UPDATE:Simone Biles Receiving Yet Another Gift From Jonathan Owens Would Melt Gymnastics Community’s Heart

In Paris, the Amanar renaissance is actually coming from Great Britain, with British gymnasts continuing to perform such difficult gymnastics on the biggest stages. During their early morning podium training, the British gymnasts Alice Kinsella and Ruby Evans attempted the enormous vault and after some early difficulties they both landed the vault to their feet. “It’s pretty cool to bring back the Amanar,” said Kinsella, smiling.

Neither gymnast was sure about when they might attempt the vault in competition, but they were pleased with their progress. Kinsella actually prefers the Amanar vault to the very common Yurchenko double twist, an easier vault with only two twists, as she can unleash her full power when she attempts the more difficult version: “I think we just need to feel the block [vault table] and we’ll be fine,” said Evans. “We know what it feels like now so hopefully we can do it.”

Simone Biles’ Husband Embraces Important Role For His Wife Ahead Of Olympics

By
Simone Biles

Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens may not be competing in the 2024 Olympics, but he’ll play an important role for his wife, Simone Biles, when they go to Paris for the summer games.

Owens is embracing his “cheerleader” role for Biles heading to the Olympics, all while expressing his excitement to see his partner attempt to make more history in the quadrennial event.

The 28-year-old NFL vet shared as much in a recent interview with People, highlighting that it’s “super exciting” because he gets a “chance to see all the work that she puts in prior to.”

“I love watching [it] from an athlete’s perspective because that’s how you’d be great in any sport, is just being consistent and doing the same thing consistently good every day,” Owens further said on cheering for his wife and watching her train and compete.

“You know what I mean? I love to watch it and I love to be out there and be a cheerleader.”

For what it’s worth, during his years of watching Simone Biles train and compete, Jonathan Owens also took the time to learn about gymnastics in order to fully embrace his role as a “supportive” husband.

“I know the routines. I’m getting the score down. If I’m going to pay attention to it, I have to lock in. I’m going to go full in … So I had to make sure I did some research so I can talk gymnastics language,” Owens shared.

It’s certainly amazing to see how supportive Owens has been for Biles. Without a doubt, he’ll bring some extra motivation for his Olympian wife later this July when the Paris games officially commence.

The Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens reacts to LeBron James’ comment about his wife Simone Biles ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics

Jonathan Owens just hailed his wife Simone Biles alongside the NBA star Lebron James. Biles got her ticket to the 2024 Paris Olympics, and the entire nation wishes her luck, but Lebron James and Jonathan Owens’s wish is special. Where James claims that Biles is the best, and her husband Owens agrees by writing “can’t wait to watch her perform.”

Biles claimed her third consecutive ticket to the Olympics. With seven medals to her name, fans are anticipating that Biles is on the quest to grab her fourth title. However, looks like according to James and Owens, Biles will most probably win.

Jonathan Owens’ reaction

Biles is one of the most celebrated gymnasts of all time. As per ESPN, Lebron James hailed Biles, saying, “She’s the best. It’s that simple. She’s the best.” Like many others, Lebron James’ comment caught Jonathan Owens’ attention.

The Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens reacted to James’ comment by writing, “They all know. Can’t wait to watch.” Moreover, Owens has always been Biles’s first supporter. And he never shies away from applauding Biles in public.

Owens commented on BIles: “An inspiration to my daughter and to all, not only Black girls in the world but also, kids, anyone, not only just in gymnastics but any field.”  However, the Bears also extended their support toward Biles by providing Owens with leave from their mandatory camp.

Owens accompanies Simone Biles to the Paris Olympics

Bears granted their safety Owens to miss their mandatory training camp and support his wife Simone Biles at the Paris Olympics 2024. Highlighting this gesture by the Bears, Simone Biles said, “The Bears are literally granting him a few days off from training camp, so he’ll be there, sure. For only a brief little time. Anytime we are able to show up for each other in support, we simply get tremendously excited because our schedules don’t align that much.”

The 27-year-old Simone Biles is among the most preferred athletes to win at the Paris Olympics. But only time will reveal what the future holds for Biles. And Owens is one of the prime picks for the Bears in the off-season. However, one thing is for sure: both these top-class athletes in their respective sports are going to perform at their best.

By
Simone Biles

Ledecky, winner of 10 Olympic medals and Biles, rated the top woman gymnast of all-time, are only two of 66 Olympic champions and 250 returning Olympians in a powerhouse US squad named on Wednesday.

Gymnast Simone Biles and swimmer Katie Ledecky headline a 592- member US Olympic team that will again be targeting the top of the medals table at the Paris Games starting this month.

edecky, winner of 10 Olympic medals and Biles, rated the top woman gymnast of all-time, are only two of 66 Olympic champions and 250 returning Olympians in a powerhouse US squad named on Wednesday.

At the Tokyo Olympics, the US won 39 gold, one more than China, and returned home with a Games best 113 medals in total.

“These remarkable 592 athletes of Team USA have demonstrated unparalleled dedication and passion in their pursuit of excellence on their road to earning a place on the 2024 US Olympic Team and representing the United States in Paris,” said Rocky Harris, USOPC chief of sport and athlete services.

“This summer, Team USA athletes will amaze us with extraordinary talent and indomitable spirit – and they will undoubtedly inspire the next generation.”

Three athletes, Diana Taurasi (basketball), Steffen Peters (equestrian) and McLain Ward (equestrian) will be appearing in their fifth Olympics while flamboyant sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson and breaker Logan “Logistx” Edra are high-profile Games debutants.

The US roster consists of 314 females and 278 males, marking the fourth consecutive Games the US has sent more women than men to the Olympics.

There are at least six sets of siblings in the squad, including badminton twins Annie and Kerry Xu while gymnast Hezly Rivera is the youngest at 16 and equestrian Peters the oldest at 59.

The US will be represented in 44 sports at the Paris Games which begin on July 26 and run until August 11.

Simone Biles fires back at former USA teammate who accused 2024 Olympics roster of not having ‘the work ethic’ ahead of Paris Games

By
Simone Biles

Simone Biles has issued a thinly-veiled swipe at MyKayla Skinner after her ex-USA teammate criticized the 2024 Olympic gymnastics roster for not having ‘work ethic’.

Skinner, who won a silver medal on vault at the 2020 Games in Tokyo after stepping in for Biles, took aim at the Team USA athletes selected to represent the country in Paris this summer in a now-deleted video on YouTube.

‘Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be,’ the 27-year-old said.

Along with Biles, current all-around Olympic champion Suni Lee is on the 2024 roster, with Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Hezly Rivera making up the rest of the five-woman team.

‘The girls just don’t have the work ethic,’ Skinner continued before referencing the US Center for SafeSport – a non-profit organization set up to reduce sexual abuse of minors and athletes in US Olympic sports.

‘And it’s hard too because of SafeSport. Like, coaches can’t get on athletes and they have to be really careful what they say.

‘Which, in some ways, is really good. But at the same time, to get to where you need to be in gymnastics you do have to be, I feel like, a little aggressive and a little intense.’

Skinner’s comments sparked outrage on social media before she released an apology, insisting her words were taken out of context.

However, while she didn’t mention her by name, Biles has appeared to fire back at her former teammate in a post on Threads.

The four-time Olympic gold medalist wrote: ‘not everyone needs a mic and a platform’.

Biles and Skinner have known each other for quite some time after both representing USA at the 2014 World Championships in Nanning.

They also both picked up Olympic medals in Tokyo seven years later despite Biles withdrawing from several events with a case of the ‘twisties’ – a mental block that that sees a gymnast lose control of their body during a twisting skill in midair.

Amid the backlash over her recent comments, Skinner said in an Instagram video last week: ‘I feel like a lot of you guys had misinterpreted or misunderstood exactly what I was meaning or had said.

‘A lot of the stuff that I was talking about wasn’t always necessarily about the current team, because I love and support all the girls that made it and I’m so proud of them.

‘It was more about going back into my own gym and the work ethic is different compared to when we were doing gymnastics in the Marta [Karolyi] era. And I’m not sticking up for Marta or saying what she did was good, I’m just saying it was different.’

“1% Everyday”: Simone Biles Cheers for Husband Jonathan Owens as He Returns to The NFL for The Chicago Bears

By
Simone Biles

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are having a rather splendid year with oodles of good news. The two have stood the test of time and shown us all what true love actually looks like. What’s even more awe-inspiring is the fact that they come in clutch for each other in times of need and distress.

At various occurrences, Jonathan Owens was seen supporting his wife with a fervent dedication, and vice versa as well. From cheering Biles after she qualified for the Paris Olympics this season and witnessing her ‘big day’ to her supporting Owens throughout his NFL season, wins, losses etc., the power couple never hesitated to address their love publicly. Recently, the dynamic duo was again seen engaged in the same shenanigans when Olympian Simone Biles was seen hailing her husband like the ardent fan she is on his Instagram post. He was seen hustling at a training camp for his team and it’s safe to say that wifey came in clutch with her regards.

Mr. and Mrs. Owens have shown up as the prominent cheerleaders for each other from time to time. One such incident left their fans in ‘awe’ when the NFL safety for the Chicago Bears, Owens, posted a video of him training for the upcoming 105th NFL season, 2024. Owens evidently posted his rigorous training video on his Instagram handle on July 6th, captioning, “Work!!!! 1% better every day #7years.” Simone Biles couldn’t help but comment. She wrote, “1% every day babe.” There have been ample incidents where the romantic duo have stood by as a rock for each other.

This was not the first time Simone Biles was seen actively praising her husband. Last year, when Jonathan was still with the Green Bay Packers, Simone stood as a mainstay for her husband. She was frequently seen on social media cheering for Mr. Owens. Simone quoted, “Love supporting you & your dreams.” The Olympian was even seen wearing a black leather jacket with “Green Bay,” showing her love and support for her husband. There have been various occurrences when not only the legendary Simone Biles but also Jonathan were seen supporting his better half. Let’s delve into those.

Jonathan Owen’s heartfelt tributes to wife Simone Biles

Owens and Biles, despite their individual growth in their respective fields, are seen acknowledging the importance of growing together. Not just Biles, but Owens is also seen standing for her wife through her ebbs and flows and important days. As Simone was bound for her Paris Olympics trials, Jonathan, in spite of his busy schedule, was seen cheering Simone to the fullest. Unfortunately, Owens was unable to be there for her during her twisties incident in 2021, yet he did make up for it this year. Simone revealed that the Chicago Bears have granted Owens a couple of days off. He made full use of his downtime to shower heaps of praises to wifey and he will be en route to Paris to be by her side. The Bears probably acknowledge the fact that family is paramount and thus decide to relieve Jonathan for some days.

Owens not only witnessed Simone’s power-packed comeback but also celebrated her triumph. He summed up his out-pour of emotions and pride by writing a heartfelt tribute to his wife on social media, captioning, “No words can describe how proud of you I am baby.” He added, “Cheers to going to your third Olympic Games!!!!!! Just sounds so surreal being able to say my wife is the best to EVER do it, how did i get so lucky 😌 I love you so much 🤞🏽🤞🏽” He this with a six-image carousel. The couple hyping each other is unmatched, and we’ll catch a sliver of their admiration for each other at the mega games. Until then, stay tuned.
