Physics of Sports: Twisting and Turning with Simone Biles

Check out the Wired article (by Rhett Allain) about the physics behind Simone Biles' historic triple-double jump.  Allain breaks down her jump into different elements and provides information about the physics associated with each element.  

Physics is involved in pretty much everything...sports, music, art...you just have to take a minute to recognize and appreciate the connection!  In the article, Allain addresses the kinematics, rotational dynamics and torques in breaking down her moves.
