Raj's dismount.... just incredible. I forget that's coming every time I watch this and then I end up yelling and clapping outloud in here, lol. Awesome.
Before the American Cup was simply a USAG invitational meet. Now it is part of the FIG World Cup circuit so there are more rules about who is allowed to compete and therefore the amount of American gymnasts.
It's such a shame that Paul Hamm fractured a bone in his hand at Visa's (I think), otherwise, I think he had a very good chance at getting a second all-around gold, or at least medaling. Just the fact that he made a successful comeback, unlike others, (ie, Nastia Liukin, Rebecca Bross, etc.) gives me warm fuzzy feelings.
@@You.Tube.Sucks. much as he did originally say that, he had no reason to do so. The other athletes and coaches have a specified amount of time to protest the results, didn’t do so until much later and so at that point it’s their choice to accept the results. It’s a very big reason why everything is done electronically these days, to eliminate (as much as possible) the potential for a miscalculation of scores but when you don’t take the time to protest within the allotted time, it’s on you only. It would not surprise me if he was advised not to do so- for that exact reason. It’s disgusting how he was villainized for the situation when he had no part in it.
Shawn had the most beautiful form. She was a power gymnast, and completely different from Nastia. Yet, they both got to compete together, and we got to see it. Neither one was perfect, but they were both the best in the world at the time. It is just so different today. Nobody will ever be a Simone Biles, as far as I can tell. But I miss the old gymnastics of Shannon Miller up through this quad. I'm so glad that the gymnastics environment is better for these gymnasts now than back then. However, I still miss these days!
This was not a World Cup event at that time... so the USA could send as many gymnast as they want, but they have to qualify into finals, which we see here.
Then the other vaults should be even lower than they are. The Amanar is an extremely tough vault- just like the Cheng- and should be rewarded as such. The DTY has become so standard it should be valued only slightly higher than the 1.5.
juan carlos miranda enojado??? Los errores son más claro por video, también ella podía tener una nota de 17.2 y recibido .6 puntos menos que eso. Creo que lo notaron....
I'm sorry but I think the Worely defeats the purpose of the Onodi. I mean I know landing the Onodi on two feet is hard, but its not as graceful as a one foot landing Onodi. I def think that the Onodi is more graceful than the Worely.
I have only seen an alternate compete once though the one with Gabby but I am not sure but I think that they that to bend some rule for that one even though
That's definitely the issue with the scoring system. If someone does a great job on an event and have a low difficulty they're going to score lower or the same as someone who has a higher difficulty but made a mistake on the event. I can see why fans were upset.
I could talk about this until I’m blue in the face! Especially Elfie. They’re both amazing gymnasts but Shawn is by far the better gymnast. Nastia is great on bars and beam but when it comes to floor and vault it’s pretty rough for her. Shawn is great on beam,vault and floor and on her weakest event bars she’s still really good and clean! Also how many competitions did she beat Nastia? They don’t give Shawn the credit she deserves. I don’t know if it’s because they’re still stuck on the past of the “classic” routines the thin, non muscular gymnast look that Nastia has but either way they both should’ve been respected equally as two of the best gymnast of their time.
@@traciejimenez2589 I find that gymnastics and scoring changes over the years. Better? Depends on the year. I don't know. I think at the Elite Level most of the gymnasts can do everything. They have it. But can that gymnast hold their nerves under the pressure of traveling and international competition? It comes down to choreography and will it win at Worlds? Will it win at the Olympics? Two different monsters. I love them both, Nastia and Shawn. I try not to let commentators or online opinions sway my respect for both of them.
Hahaha Worley getting an 8.8 with a fall and Nastia getting a 9.6 with only visible errors on her dismount... Shayla had form issues on her worley, underrotated her arabian, had a step on her dismount... smh
There's a vid of Nastia and Shawn, the one where they watch their Olympic routines together. Shawn comments on Nastia's RBF. I had to look that up. I felt that both Shawn and Nastia had intense looks in this competition. Shawn looks sad sometimes. Nastia looks nervous. I think it's just the pressure.
samantha peszek on the balance beam was seriously sick
Drink every time Al Trautwig says “The Pride or West Des Moines, Iowa, Shawn Johnson”
I’d be drunk.
😂😂🥴!
You’d have alcohol poisoning.
Ya it was weird he kept saying that.
I’m wasted
Considering she fell on vault, Shawn was pretty competitive in AA
Just like Nastia, when she fell off the beam during the 2007 worlds.
We will be uploading everything we have eventually.
Thx bro
Paul Hamm was a BEAST! Great to see him here and not just the ladies.
Raj's dismount.... just incredible. I forget that's coming every time I watch this and then I end up yelling and clapping outloud in here, lol. Awesome.
The female gymnasts all look extremely uncomfortable w Marta's attention and touch
i love you nastia liukin and shawn Johnson
Gymnastics is a tough sport. Everyone is good or they wouldn't be at this level. It takes dedication and skill. I love Nastia and Shawn too.
1:14:25 Shawn’s reaction is just way too cute!!!
Watch this then Watch the story of Nastia Liukin It is truly inspiring
Thank you for responding so quickly. Great customer service you have and great uploads. Greatly appreciated! One of the best channels on UA-cam
anyone know what joeline mobius's floor music is called?
Impresionante !!!
One of the best American cups in the past 2 decades, really excellent gymnastics when no one makes mistakes !
I’m confused. This American cup was a train wreck with a BUNCH of mistakes? Lmao
Samantha's beam was fire.
I love shawn.💙💙💕

It's a shame Paul Hamm claimed he would give back the gold medal from Athens...... but didn't.
p.s. your "i.e." should be "e.g.,"

Any chance you have the full broadcast of 2009 gymnastics events. For example Tyson American Cup? Thank you for all the wonderful uploads
Have the rules changed with the American Cup? There are a lot of Americans competing compared with the more recent American Cups.
Every time Al stated that Shaun and Nastia are rivals when they were best friends.
Shawn johnson4life!!
I screamed loud when that Canadian gymnast fell! As if she was my daughter! WOW 🥺
I was kinda surprised Nastia threw her dismount with the half twist, because she was obviously way way tired by the end of that routine
kras118 she always did that dismount, since the second day of nationals 2007. She never went back to just the double front after that
@@adamtravis9380 you missed OP's point. She was saying that she was surprised Nastia threw a dismount, period (as opposed to a basic flip).
Idk why she didn’t keep the double layout, the double front 1/2 has so so so many deductions😭
with Shawn Johnson's dismount nastia would have a 8.0
How the heck did Nastia get a 16.6 on bars? Ridiculous.
Yes, but even with her high start value, there's no way she could have gotten a 9.1 execution score. Too many form errors and missed handstands.
snowfire18 you're wrong
snowfire18 Nastia was always overscored on bars.
She got 16.9s at the olympics. The code was different during that quad
I'm aware that the code was different in that quad; I meant that I was in disbelief because I think she was overscored.
17:58 Nice to see both Shayla Worley's doing so well!
Lol good catch - that's surprising!!

alicia didnt compete bars and thus couldnt compete at the american cup because its strictly an all around competition.
Love NY crowds. They all did amazing. Once AT&T took over for the sponsor it became two per country.
2021 or 2022 American Cup during this year or next year.
Shawn was good on beam here. But seeing HOW much better she was at the Olympics ... I bet nobody thought she'd be the Olympic Champion!
'an' Olympic Champion 😀🔥
No, they worded it right- THE. She was THE Olympic champion on the event they were talking about, the balance beam.
This was not a World Cup event at that time... so the USA could send as many gymnast as they want, but they have to qualify into finals, which we see here.
Yikes, Alyssa's fall really did look painful..good thing she wasn't hurt
Those Amanars/1 1/2 twists on vault were so overvalued at D score 6.5! It's better now with 5.8
Then the other vaults should be even lower than they are. The Amanar is an extremely tough vault- just like the Cheng- and should be rewarded as such. The DTY has become so standard it should be valued only slightly higher than the 1.5.
Must of felt strange wearing the name of a chicken company on your leotard/tank.
mst3kanita - 😂😂😂
Nastia!!!!
Shawn Johnson!
aw, baby Nastia. what a cutie
doooope
nastia liukin tuvo 2 errores en la rutina de barras y los jueses no lo notaron, bien por ella,
juan carlos miranda enojado??? Los errores son más claro por video, también ella podía tener una nota de 17.2 y recibido .6 puntos menos que eso. Creo que lo notaron....
I'm sorry but I think the Worely defeats the purpose of the Onodi. I mean I know landing the Onodi on two feet is hard, but its not as graceful as a one foot landing Onodi. I def think that the Onodi is more graceful than the Worely.
This is also my opinion!
Star Tetrahedron ?????? The normal onodi already is 1 foot
Pls none of you talk about the scores professional judges are better than our love for some gymnast
Samantha’s beam!! Slay
miss shaylaaa
What a shame Sam was injured at the Olympics. They could have had her on beam in team finals. Same with Chelsea.
Nastia is the worst spinner. She hasNevverrr performed her double-L correctly.
I'm assuming English is your second language because that made no sense. Try Berlitz!
Joe L
Joey Lehman The irony is you spelled never as "Nevverrr"
I have only seen an alternate compete once though the one with Gabby but I am not sure but I think that they that to bend some rule for that one even though

I like shawn Johnson
Nastias score on floor had a 6.2 d score and a 9.500 execution score. She was supposed to get 15.7, not 15.6
1 tenth out of bounds penalty :(
Why is it when Nastia is in a competition with Shawn the commentators always praise Nastia more?
For real

She had more accomplishments
Joline sortta looks like lilia pokepieva
Shawn Johnsons legs are ridiculous...
Paul Ham’s head is fucking huge
Okay, why is that male gymnast putting honey on his hands at 32:09??????
luig2121 so the chalk sticks better to his hands
Hahaha Worley getting an 8.8 with a fall and Nastia getting a 9.6 with only visible errors on her dismount...
Shayla had form issues on her worley, underrotated her arabian, had a step on her dismount... smh
Nastia's score was fine, Worley's was just way too high.
the big difference between shawn and nastia it was that, the first one actually enjoys gymnastics and look happy
🙄

she in no way should have won!!!! UGH!!!! damn judges make me sick
lmao at 11:34
I despise Shawn beam mount.
lmao at 34:08
Simone Biles is the best
