    Ksenia is so mentally strong. When the russian team was falling apart after Viktoria's beam routine, she hopped on that beam and delivered a great routine, even though their was so much pressure on her. On floor too, she managed to nail her first 3 passes. Such an amazing gymnast

    • @i.am.heather
      @i.am.heather Рік тому +1

      While I agree that Nastia’s routine was a beautiful watch, I have to disagree with that as a favorite bc I absolutely love Shawn Johnson’s 2008 beam routine. Quite possibly my favorite. I also adore Dominique Mocheanu’s 1996 beam & floor. She was such a talented gymnast completely exploited by her family & the Karolyi’s. It would have been great to see her with a coach that worked her body less to where she’d have to go into early retirement.
      Idk. I just enjoyed Shawn & Dominque’s gymnastics way more than Nastia’s. Not that hers wasn’t absolutely *gorgeous* with the lines.
      Those are just my American favorites. Aly Raisman is amazing, but her 2016 routine is 🤌🏼 She is such a powerhouse.

Their naivety was way more enjoyable to watch here.

      @@autumnbriggs1035 Tbf Simone had been dominating competitions before that so it make sense that they'd mainly be watching her, plus she had a lot of Brazilian fans too. All eyes were on Aly as well and no matter how many times I watch it, I never get tired of her floor routine. London was definitely more nostalgic for me, especially since a lot of people underestimated Aly and Gabby and thought that Jordan would dominate (and she was amazing still) and McKayla's vault will always be legendary. I love Rio too though since Aly and Simone's friendship was the cutest, plus it was the last time we got to see either of them really enjoy the floor.

      Think that in 2012 the gold wasnt guaranteed sp they were more excited, 2016 they knew the gold was theirs to lose, if someone messed up they would lose as they were so dominating with Biles. It was a bit of a different atmosphere but they were supportive of each other, just not as exciting given their dominance.

      It's because they always show us UB from the front so to speak, if you watch them from the sides - like the judges do, you can see the bend in arms and hips better as well as how vertical they are on handstands, which is where the deductions come from most of the time.

I kept hoping GB would win a medal. Being the host country calls for a lot from a nation. It isn’t just their sports teams that have to keep smiling in the face of insurmountable odds.

    • @Allhoney33
      @Allhoney33 5 років тому +7

      They were all mostly underage when they won that Gold. (Same thing in the 2000 Sydney Olympics, which disqualified their bronze medal).Prepubescent girls have an advantage over ones who've hit puberty. Look at how Nadia was when she was 13/14 years old vs 17/18 years old. That's why China cheats. But cheating catches up with you. Now that the Chinese gymnasts are the appropriate ages and gymnastics is more power centered, they can't deliver! They should have used all that energy to evolve with the changes in gymnastics vs cheating.

    • @kristinc1349
      @kristinc1349 5 років тому +3

      I think Cheng Fei was so over scored in Beijing. Not to mention the fact that the Americans couldn’t catch a break by the end and were making major mistakes everywhere.
      Plus, the Chinese gymnasts were so young. There is such a difference and advantage to using young gymnasts.
      Their injury rate is much lower and they are a lot less cautious with their routines.
      Gymnasts like Victoria Komova, Rebecca Bross, and Katelyn Ohashi were all incredible as juniors but with age and injury they lost talent.
      Yes, many gymnasts get better with age but their is a huge advantage to using young gymnasts.

    For everyone I’ve seen commenting in the All Around about Gabby Douglas not deserving to go I’m the all around over Jordyn Wieber, I wonder if they missed the fact that Gabby scored higher than her not just on that one day in qualification, but also in the Team final! Every one of the scores Gabby put up were higher than Jordyn Wiebers, especially on bars! Not only that, but Gabby also beat Jordyn in the All Around at Olympic trials, securing the only guaranteed berth to the Olympics. Jordyn may have been able to beat Aly in the All Around if she hit all four events (but maybe not with Ally’s FX score and the same vault, and same weakness on bars) but I still think Gabby would have beat her with all four routines hit. She had the better Amanar, equal to better floor and better beam when she hit her beam routines, because Jordyn wasn’t credited Internationally for her beam connections the way she was domestically, and Gabby had that Chow punch on beam when she hit with great positions and acrobatic skills, and Jordyn could not compete with Gabby at all on bars. To be fair, Jordyn didn’t compete beam in the Team final, so I could only go off of qualifications, but Gabby not only made it into the All Around fair and square, she also put out higher scores on everything in the Team final, and she then proved herself again in the all around with four quality events (though if Komova had controlled her vault better and prevented the extra steps off the podium down to just the first step to the side, and two less balance checks on beam, she would have won gold over Gabby-you have to be better on the day of) and her gold medal was proof enough that she belonged in there competing with the world’s best, and Aly Raisman’s qualification performance and floor FX earned her spot fairly as well. Every one of those girls (the Russian ladies included) should be incredibly proud of what they accomplished though, because an Olympic medal of any color around their necks is nothing short of incredible and puts them in a very prestigious group of athletes and their names forever cemented in gymnastics and Olympic history! The fact that Russia was so good that even with errors in Komova’s beam dismount and vault landing, and Musty and Grishina’s floor errors, that they still won silver, is a testament to just how good they are! London Olympic gymnastics was a bloodbath that made it exciting to watch!
