Simone Biles reveals impressive new skill she has learned while rehearsing for highly-anticipated US tour
Simone Biles continues to learn despite being the most decorated American gymnast at the Olympics.
After winning three gold medals and a silver at the Paris Olympics this summer, the 27-year-old is preparing to lead the Gold Over America Tour with other gymnasts this fall.
As she prepares for the nationwide tour, Biles showed off her newest addition via her Instagram Story on Wednesday.
In the clip, Biles positions herself upside down on the balance beam, cradling the platform between her head and arms and resting her shoulders on top of it.
With her legs straight, Biles does two 180-degree turns in this position before stepping down with a cheering laugh.

“From the world stage to the GOAT stage, this incredible journey continues and I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in store this year,” Biles said in a press release for the event. “I love creating unforgettable memories for our audiences every night on tour.”
The tour kicks off on September 17 at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside and ends on November 3 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
