Here's all the elements in her floor routine:

1st pass - Front handspring front full + front double full
2nd pass - Front handspring double front tucked
Leap pass - switch ring + tour jete 1/2
3rd pass - Ro back 1 1/2 + front 1 1/2 (Rudi)
Double turn with leg at horizontal
Tour jete
4th pass - Ro 2 1/2

When I first started really watching gymnastics it was really hard for me to tell what they were doing, especially on floor and bars, but really paying attention, watching what the older girls did at my gym, and a couple years of practice really helped :). The 3 main things to look for are direction (front or back), number of flips (usually 1 or 2) and number of twists (anywhere from 1/2 to 3 1/2 - this is usually the hardest to see). Isn't our complex sport amazingly wonderful? :)
