Comparing Their Styles: Kyla Ross and Simone Biles

Even though both Kyla Ross and Simone Biles represent the United States of America, they can not be more different. 


Kyla- Kyla has that gorgeous international look: Clean lines, stellar toe point, all around impeccable form. Even though Kyla doesn't have a lot of difficulty, she can have almost a perfect ten in terms of execution. You rarely see Kyla have bent legs, and she always sticks that dismount whether it be the double layout off bars or the double tuck on beam. Even though she only does a Yurchenko Double on the vault, vault is considered one of her best apparatuses because she can land with minimal deductions. Kyla is known for the international look.


Simone-  Well I think Simone's stats prove it all: 1 time US Secret Classic Champion, 2 time National Champion (AA), 2 Time World All-Around Champion, Two time floor world champion, one time beam world champion, one time team world champion, and much much more. Simone is an athlete of absolute power. She has the hardest floor routine in the world, and even has a move named after her (Double layout with half twist) Simone can bring an Amanar to the table, a huge beam set, and a AMAZINGLY POWERFUL floor routine. Simone is known for chucking the biggest skills, and most of the time, does so successfully. We barely ever See Simone waver, thats what makes her so dominant



    So even though these two girls represent the same country, their gymnastics styles are TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
