Oklahoma commit Lailah Danzy brings impressive power and amplitude to her full out dismount. She has a dynamic tap throughout her giants that allows her to generate enough momentum to get plenty of height and time to spot the landing. Her ability to find the ground and stick makes this a strong exclamation point at the end of her routine and a dismount that will fit right in with Oklahoma’s bar lineup.

To say Lailah Danzy brings power to vault and floor would be an understatement. Last season, she competed both a yurchenko double full on vault and a double layout on floor, showcasing impressive height and amplitude on both events. Despite generating incredible power, Danzy also shows air awareness, control and an ability to find her landings. Although she’s an incredible all around gymnast, her vault and floor should be on everyone’s radar this upcoming season. She has also been training a double layout full out upgrade on floor, which would be an exciting addition if she brings it to competition.

Oklahoma commit Lailah Danzy brings the kind of combination of power and performance that makes her floor routine impossible to overlook. Her engaging choreography immediately draws you in, but it’s her tumbling that makes the routine truly stand out.

Lailah has the power to make these big, difficult passes look effortless, with the amplitude and control to consistently produce easy landings. Paired with her ability to connect with the crowd, she has the complete package on floor, and for any college lineup, this is a routine that simply can’t be left out.

Lailah Danzy is a powerhouse across all four events, and that strength is especially evident when she takes on vault. Last season, she posted a season-high 9.9 and captured the State title in the event. Danzy brings exceptional height off the table, pairing her power with a clean body position throughout the vault and the ability to finish with a strong landing. Her impressive power ceiling was on full display at a high-performance camp, where she trained a Yurchenko double tuck into the foam. With that kind of explosiveness already in her arsenal, Danzy has the potential to be a major contributor on vault at the collegiate level.
