About
That damn fouette. Everyone with a familiarity with the travails of compulsory beam in 1996 knows what I’m talking about. You’ve never seen gymnasts have more trouble with a B element. And I swear no one has done it since. Not so much because of 1996 compulsory PTSD but because it’s not really worth anything and doesn’t fit into modern combination-heavy beam routines. A B hopping element? Why don’t you just go jump into a volcano.
