As someone who used to watch HOURS of gymnastics on TV, I was delighted to see this viral video come across my Twitter feed. Floor routines are usually done to classical music with precise moves. UCLA gymnast Sophina DeJesus changed all that by incorporating popular hip hop moves like Hit the Quan, the Nae Nae and the whip all while landing incredible tumbling. She finished with a salute into the dab, perfect!
According to ESPN she received a 9.925 for the performance and tied for fourth place in floor exercise results. I’m sorry but I need to see which ones were better than or equal to hers.
