Jana Bieger - Floor Exercise - 2008 Visa Championships - Day 1
Her routine is filled with difficult elements, and she'll showcase them again here on the floor. She did step out, which will be a deduction of one-tenth of a point. The landing was a bit low; ideally, they should land exactly vertical without the chest bending forward. Many athletes perform five tumbling passes, but she combines them into four by putting two together. Despite not doing the element I expected, Jana did a very good job.
