    Simone Biles continues to separate herself as the greatest gymnast of all time.

    Before the Opening Ceremony, Biles submitted an original skill on the Uneven Bars to the FIG Women’s Technical Committee.

    "The new skill is a clear hip circle forward with 1.5 turns (540 degrees) to handstand, a variation of an element named for Wilhelm Weiler (CAN), which Biles has performed for much of her career. Should she attempt it, it is likely to be at the beginning of her Uneven Bars routine, when she typically performs the Weiler."

    USA Gymnastics shared the news with an announcement on Friday morning.

    The team shared a video of Biles performing the skill in response to the news.

    Olympic fans are blown away by Biles' continued greatness.

    "When people talk about who the GOATS are, I want to know how they moved the sport forward. Biles does it again and again," one wrote.

    "Simone said I'm coming to the Olympics and leaving an impression for years and decades later. Who is going to stop her? Good Luck, Simone!" another said.

    "Back to this… Simone doesn’t even like bars and is really going to have to Biles 1 on bars. Like God really took his best pieces and made Simone," another said.

    "They go high, we go higher!!!!" another wrote.
