Carlos Yulo, Philippines, 2 Gold Medals Olympics.
The best gymnasts in the world refused to vault-double-pike +-twist and a 2.5 twist in #Paris2024 for its difficulty — but for Carlos Yulo, Filipino: Leap, pierce the air with your body,
Rotate core on your axis 360 degrees midair,
TWICE,
land steadfast.
The man with the strongest core,
highest artistry,
and bravest heart in the world
is a Filipino:
Carlos Yulo.

In the Filipino language: Sa buong mundo, iisa lang ang nakakagawa nito ngayong araw sa Paris
at iisa lang sa buong mundo ang buong husay at buong tapang na gumawa nito —
hindi siya nag-alinlangan
at hindi siya natakot: Siya ay Filipino:
Carlos Yulo,
kumatawan sa buong Pilipinas at sa lahat ng Filipino.
Carlos Yulo, first vault double pike with twist on first vault, and 2.5 twist on second vault,
moves that none of the brave and best in the world dared execute in Paris for its difficulty
( flying then at mid-air rotating the core of the body on its axis 360 degrees … twice! while keeping limbs straight with great artistry, then landing on feet steadfast)
