English term or phrase: Stick the landing
Hola, colegas.

Estoy traduciendo una película y cuando termina la rutina, dicen "And she sticks the landing!"

Encontré "fijar el aterrizaje" o "caer de pie", pero no me convence demasiado. ¿Alguien que sepa del tema o conozca la jerga que me de una mano?

Muchas gracias.

Explanation:
En deportes gimnásticos se dice así, al menos en España (y parece que en Argentina también), de forma más o menos coloquial.
