Bars used to be so much cooler!
Mukhina is a rock star. RIP Elena
yelena mukhina is absolutely incredible i love her
Mukhina was the best
Mukhina, the best!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When they hit their hips against the lower bar, I just imagine the pain.
Elena Mukhina and Kim Gwang Suk were AMAZING...
Great choices. I really miss having the bars close together. The transitions were so creative back then.
i'm not saying gymnasts today arent talented, i'm just pointing out the fact that gymnastics today is way less difficult.
first: the bars are set much further apart nowadays, allowing the gymnasts to swing. This makes it much too far to do such transfers.. it's a shame indeed. I don't know exactly when they officially changed the heights and distances, but the gymnasts wanted to do skills more like the men on the high bar. Also the girls were allowed to compete at a much younger age (now only from 16). The turns on the pelvis are indeed painful, and much other elements have been banned like the skill at 1:00
Mukhina 😭
I thought the last one was extremely fascinating and then I saw she didn't even have grips! OMG!
omg these moves on the uneven bars back then are insane!
I love the bars being closer together but Kim Gwang Suk and He Kexin are my favorites.
Wu Jiani's routine is such a huge revelation to me: insanely unique. Ma Yanhong's dismount is out of this world.
I would also add Lu Li from China at 1992 Bar Event Finals where she won the gold. Exciting and a perfect 10.
I think the best is this of Elena Mukhina but this of Kim Gwang Suk is just... Waouh!
Interesting that several of OP's faves were from the late 70's/early 80's era. Thank you for sharing these gems! Also, I've said it before and I'll say it again: the Li Li is one of the most beautiful skills in ALL of WAG. Love it! Thanks for a great upload!
it's so sad that someone as talented as Elena Mukhina has passed from this world! Her gymnastics is some of the most beautiful work I have ever seen.
I love Li Li's combination with the German giant. I've never seen anyone since do that!! I feel bad for Kim...she really was a beautiful gymnast and very elegant for such a young kid. Her bars won't be forgotten 😍
