[Tanya Shivari]

Landing in Womens Gymnastics. Following a move that includes a jump into the air, a gymnast will always want to come back onto the mat without falling over. A good landing is vital for a high score, and they will aim to jump back to the ground with both feet firmly together. The gymnast will sometimes have completed a 180-degree turn about the long axis prior to the landing.
