It is believed that Ksenia is the first female gymnast ever to perform the move known as "Tkatchev to immediate giant full." This is a very challenging move to perform, normally only seen on Men's High Bar. The move is difficult because a gymnast must get enough speed after the release skill to continue swinging but also must clear the low bar.
