The vault, called a Yurchenko double pike, requires a back handspring off the vault and two complete flips with the knees kept straight. It's named after Natalia Yurchenko, a Russian gymnast who performed a version of the move with a single flip, but Biles is the first female gymnast to perform it with two. Previously, the double pike had only been performed by men.
Fittingly, Biles performed the impressive move in a new leotard decorated with a tiny rhinestone goat, because she is in fact the GOAT.
