Only FIVE WOMEN in HISTORY have pulled off this move

The Biles 1 on floor entered the code of points in 2013, after American gymnast Simone Biles successfully performed it at Worlds. It consists of a double salto backward laid out with a half twist off, and was given a G rating by the technical committee. However, it remains one of the rarest floor acrobatic elements in women's gymnastics. In this video, we'll take a look at the only four women, besides Simone, to have performed London Phillips was, as far as we know, the first woman to successfully perform the double layout half out in competition. She did it in 2005, eight years before Simone claimed it as her own. However, at the time, new scales could only be submitted at the Olympics or the World Championships, and the American gymnast never made it to any major international competition, so she never got the chance to stamp her name in the code of points. In 2019, Trinity Thomas became the third gymnast to have nailed this skill in competition. However, her technique is slightly different from the other athletes on this list. The American gymnast twists between the two layouts, and not just at the end, making the last somersault a forward one. So since she twists earlier, it's open for debate if her version should be considered a Biles one or a different skill. Bree Clark, a Daphne High School senior, successfully landed the Biles one back in 2021, which made her the fourth woman in history to do so. She was not competing at the highest level, so the fact that she was able to not only put it to her feet, but also stick the landing was a huge accomplishment for the Utah State gymnast. In 2023, Hilary Heron from Panama became the fifth woman to pull off this skill. She gained a ton of notoriety at the World Championships by becoming the first woman, after Simone, to perform the Biles one at a major international competition. A few weeks later, she competed it again at the Pan American Games, so it seems this skill is now part of her routine permanently. Its high level of difficulty and the blind landing may be among the reasons why we don't see the Biles one so often. Nonetheless, it is undoubtedly one of the most impressive and cool-looking skills in women's gymnastics.
