Beam
A beam is 4 feet tall and 41/2 inches wide and it is made out of wood. This event is very hard and to master this event you have to be daring and have lots of balance. Shawn Johnson, the champion of the balance beam, once said "its seems so unreal that I'm flipping and landing on 4 inches." Beam is a graceful event but at the same time complex because staying on the beam is very hard and landing tricks just perfectly demands for a lot of skill.
