Jordyn Wieber was a great all-around gymnast, she won everything she entered up until the 2012 Olympic All-around. With her being retired, for the moment at least, its time to judge her gymnastics.
What I liked: Jordyn was an amazing power athlete. She did some of the most difficult tumbling in the whole entire world, from her Amanar on vault to her double double on floor (Two flips, two twists) Jordyn had the perfect amount of power. She even had outstanding artistry on beam. Jordyn was a fearless athlete. She didn't let risk of injury stop her from attempting the big stunts. Thats what I liked about Jordyn: No fear.
What I didn't like: The only thing I didn't like was that her bars were weak, Jordyn often missed handstands on bars, which is one of the most important parts of the apparatus, and often had that lower back arch.
Jordyn was an amazing power athlete, and she thinks she will skip a year or two of college and enroll later just to focus o on her redemption: If Jordyn makes the Rio team, she will get into the all-around. Jordyn WILL win.
