Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by valerie.

It took me a minute to figure out what I am looking at. That is gorgeous! I can see the gymnast in motion, flying through the air.

To solve it, here's what I did:

If you put the 3 in row 8 in columns 7-9 and solve forward, you get a contradiction, so row 8 column 7 is a dot.

Trying that 3 in columns 10-12 also leads to a contradiction, so row 8 column 12 is a dot.

Then line logic from there.

This was a little too trial-and-error-y. Hopefully someone else will have a more logical way of solving it.

Excellent image/solve!

Clever title and pun. And of course her leotard is in M livery!

Brilliant. It took me a minute to figure it out.

Great image. Since they have been playing a lot of gymnastics on Facebood it was easy to see.

I didn't write down my steps but did solve it logically without anything that felt like trial-and-error. It was some tricky IEL dealing with the black in rows 7,8,9.

Image popped for me at the end after staring at it for a bit.

I did lots of 2-way and color logic. First I placed the red 5 in C17. which meant that the green had to start in Rs 14 and 15, in C20. The lower red & green area solved easily after that.

I solved C15 completely, and was able to place the rest of the color logic from there. 2-way logic placed her legs in the correct spots, and voila!

Excellent grace and movement in a tiny figure, Yonah!

Following after Valerie's first step, the same logic (placed in R7C7-9) can be used on R7 to make R7C7 a dot.

No matter how you fill in row 9, this causes R8C8-9 to always be black and R8C11-12 to always be dots (I believe this is the 2-way logic Kristen referred to). LL to finish.
