I agree, this is a very nice routine! Someone who actually hits the handstand position…shocker!!! I like how she kind of pikes the first layout then arches the second, it looks cool :)

I like the composition of this routine.

This floor routine is by Ioannis Melissanidis from Greece in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. His landings are incredible and he makes it look effortless! This routine scored a 9.85, which won him the gold medal in the event finals, well deserved! It was the first Olympic gymnastics medal for Greece since 1906!
