WASHINGTON — Even while training, Simone Biles does not disappoint.
A day before the Tokyo Olympics Opening Ceremony, U.S. gymnast Simone Biles demonstrated her brand new vault during a podium training session in Japan.
Biles, 24, nearly stuck the landing after executing a Yurchenko double pike.
The Yurchenko double pike is extremely difficult and involves a roundoff onto the springboard, a back handspring onto the vault and ends with a piked double backflip to the landing.
Back in May, the fan-favorite Olympian became the first woman ever to land the move during competition.
In order to have the move named after her, she still needs to land it in a major competition like the Olympics. However, Biles' coach Laurent Landi told NBC Sports last week she would need some convincing to allow the four-time Olympic gold medalist to perform the "very, very dangerous skill."
Watch her perform the difficult move below:
Biles already has four moves named for her -- one on the vault, one on the balance beam and two in the floor routine. She's the favorite to again win the women's all-around gymnastics gold.
The five-time Olympic medalist is also making headlines ahead of the Games by becoming the first female athlete with a Twitter hashtag.
On Wednesday, Twitter Sports unveiled the newest hashtag emoji, a goat wearing a leotard and a gold medal. It appears when "#Simone" or "#SimoneBiles" is tweeted.
For those that don't know, G.O.A.T. stands for "Greatest Of All Time."
