THANK YOU seriously this is my childhood, I am so happy to be able to rewatch this. I recorded this onto an old VHS and watched it so many times as a kid.
And bars as well. WOGA made it seem like they "discovered" the Chinese pirouettes for Nastia's '08 routine. Wholetime, Hollie had been doing these skills for years.
Sandra Kaye Hansen considering how hard it is to master these skills it’s pretty normal to try to keep the same routines as long as possible unless the code devalues the skills.
Delusion in the comments above -- love Chells, but she had very little chance of medalling in 2008 or any time thereafter. A giant full and a jam that's usually at least 45° away from handstand no longer cut it (as of 16 years ago).
Wow! Gymnasts really take a beating. I can't believe Courtney Kupets was already recovering from a knee injury at these nationals and she went on to worlds only to compete one day and then rupture her achilles. The physical and mental toughness to come back, compete and medal in Athens '04 was remarkable. Then she went on to compete collegiate gymnastics and do well there as well!
Hollie Vice had great form on bars, but she missed almost all of her handstands. By a LOT. She would not be considered a strong bar worker by today's standards at all
@@TsubasaDreams Nadia is kind of not the same thing as she performed back when literally nobody could do a giant. Many were hitting handstands fairly well when Vise competed, and they were supposed to be deducted even under 10, but they generally were lax, but under the new code it is impossible to be lax on that as that is a huge sticking point in the rule book.

OMG... Rest your voice Tim!!!!
Or drink lots of water...
Him with laryngitis was a miraculous thing lol
Until now never realized how much Nastias floor routine was not that unique, but similar to Holli Vices’
Same gym same choreographers similar styles,. Not that surprising.

Just realised that too!
Chellsie pretty much did the same bar routine her whole career
chickchick0509 if it ain't broke don't fix it
And won the world championships with that routine.

Always thought Courtney Kupets had one of the coolest floor routines
Courtney Kupets's first tumbling pass was amazing!
I miss when ending floor with a triple was almost standard
Adam Travis now it’s all double pikes lol

Was crazy is she ruptured another achilles in college in 2008… and won the NCAA all around national title a year later as a senior!
Sad Annia Hatch did not win the title!
The fluff on Annia Hatch was good.
Exelente perfecto
Does anyone know the music used in the annia piece?
Unitone Sampler 1 - "Odessa" .... Thomas Newman - "Road to Perdition"
Who let Tim commentate with laryngitis?
"Please don't talk to me right now" 57:36
Is Chelsie's floor X music's Jaycee Phelps' old music from 1996? X
No. Its not
Anyone else despise the code of points during this quad?
Weird how beam was the highest scoring event during this time.
Karolyis. 🤔
Listening to Tim commentate with his scratchy throat is super irritating
He probably had to commentate lmfaooo😭
Bolero was not a good music selection for Postel
Always thought her floor was a bit messy
Hey everyone
Hola !!

Lmao by that logic neither would Nadia, who couldn't do a giant. You can't judge past codes and gymnasts using the current one.
