About
The travail of Aiko Sugihara and the double Y spin ended in a moment of success when she completed the turn in the 2017 all-around final to get it named after herself, establishing it as one of the three most difficult turns on beam, all rated at E. Further attempts have been less successful, and we all agree it’s fine to stop now.

Value
E

Because gymnastics is a comedy, not a drama
