Savannah Vinsant height - How tall is Savannah Vinsant?

Although Vinsant's scores qualified the United States for an Olympic spot, she still had to compete in a series of qualification competitions to earn her place to represent the United States at the Olympics. Savannah won all three of the qualification competitions securing her spot easily. "I'm speechless – I have no words for it", was her reaction upon being named to the Olympic team, "I'm filled with joy and I'm at peace that it's over. I had a big group of girls out there with me this year who were awesome, and they definitely kept me on my toes all year. I'm honored to be representing Team USA."

Vinsant competed on August 4, 2012 at the London Olympics. She was the youngest competitor of the female field. In the compulsory round, she scored a 46.400 for her routine that included a half in Rudy out and would be standing in 11th place. However, Vinsant's second routine, her optional routine, would score a 54.955, which moved her to seventh place in the prelims with a total score of 101.355. This would grant her one of the eight places in the finals competition on the same day. Vinsant became the first U.S. trampolinist to qualify to the finals at an Olympic Games. "I wanted to make finals, but overall I just wanted to do 20 skills," she said. "Making it to finals in seventh, I was shocked actually– I thought that was a pretty high standard for me to reach."

On November 21, 2011 in Birmingham, England, Vinsant finished tenth at the 2011 World Trampoline and Tumbling Championships with a score of 98.445. With her performance, she advanced to the women's individual trampoline final and secured a spot for the U.S. team at the next summer's 2012 Olympic Games in London.

In 2007, Vinsant filled out an application to attend the U.S. Olympic Training Center without her parents' permission. She called her mother from Newton High School and told her she was sick and her parents would need to get her now. Her mother took her home from school, where the then 14-year-old Savannah received a call from the Olympic Training Center saying she was a few years too young to attend. Vinsant lived in Newton from the time she was 10 until one month before her 16th birthday, when she left home to train for the Olympics.

Vinsant's parents are Neil and Ramonda Vinsant. Savannah Vinsant began gymnastics in 2000. She had always lived in cities that had trampoline gyms. However, when her family moved, in 2005, to Newton that changed. Her family drove her a constant back-and-forth trips to practices in Orange and Lafayette, La. until it became too much. It seemed as though at this point Vinsant's trampoline career would likely end, just shortly after it had started. "We didn't think she was going to bounce again," said her father. Savannah made it quite clear that she was not going to take giving up the sport quietly. "I hate y'all. I hate y'all for making me quit," Ramonda recalled Savannah telling her during one heated argument. The parents, who had taken courses in judging and coaching, began training Savannah on their own. They trained her on a 7-by-14-foot competition trampoline (a rectangular trampoline with a different bed than regular outdoor trampolines) – in their backyard. Soon roughly 40 children began coming to Savannah's house and joined her with her practices. Her parents then offered to build a gym in their front yard.
