Lilia Podkopayeva (Ukraine)
Vault: 9.781
Bars: 9.800
Beam: 9.787
Floor: 9.887
Total: 39.255
Now this is what gymnastics used to be like. Elegance, grace and beauty. Now it's floor on beam and men's high bar on unevens.
Her balance beam performance is a joy to watch. Looks like a combination of gymnastics and ballet. I'm in awe of her talent. Bravo!
i like that she seems to have such a balletic style in everything she does
A true combination of power, grace, control and beautiful lines. Old school - ballet and gymnastics. Always Loved watching her.
Ballet training makes for the most elegant gymnasts! Old school for me!
Never seen a better gymnast
She brought grace to these Olympic games!
Her toe point, execution, skills, everything was perfect! Love her! Thank you so much for uploading!
Lilia was a magnificent gymnast. She deserved every titles she got. Too bad Ukraine didn't have more great gymnasts for a team win.
Wow, they don't make 'em like this anymore, as far as having such balletic style goes! Really awesome to watch!
Наша Лиля - молодец!)
This is one of my favourite floor exercises ever... It's so graceful.
You could really tell she wasn't having the greatest day ever, but she fought so hard for this title and completely earned it in the end. Vault was a scary event for her considering her issues in TF, but she worked out all the kinks by AA. On UB I think her callous ripped during her opening hecht transition and she still had to do the rest of the routine - it must have hurt like hell! On BB she had a very hard landing on her crotch during the Rueda which was a bit off, but she covered well.
this is so beautiful it almost brought tears to my eyes this time... not even joking. maybe she's just that awesome, or maybe i'm just pathetic. regardless, lilipod will always be one of my favorites.
cellieeeeee You're pathetic... And I had the same reaction :)
I think we're all pathetic if we all had the same reaction
She’s the Queen of front tumbling and the best pointed feet ever
I loved her SO MUCH! Of course I loved the American Team, and wanted them to win Gold. But I loved this beautiful, and talented young lady, too! 🤗
Да не советские гимнасты были пожалуй самыми лучшими в мире.Остальные пыль глотали в попытке догнать их.
the commentators' tone makes me suggest they were the biggest lilypod stans
Не фанат олипийских игр но тогда помню не мог оторвать взгляд от ее выступления и сейчас спустя десятки лет смотрится как в первый раз! 👏
I remember that floor routine well, she's such a lovely dancer!
Lilia Podkopayeva, in my opinion, is the best gymnast, her performance is awesome!
That front tumbling....omg....that is so difficult to have the power and spatial awareness. Front tumbling is so hard because the landings are blind. Incredible. I have never seen anyone else do her first pass; front handspring fly spring double front half out. Amazing.
ralucagymnast check out Brooklyn Moors (CAN) 2017 floor! Beautiful routine, and does a Podkopayeva on the first pass. 💖
@@chrissyjoy08. But she doesn’t do any fly springs which is VERY difficult.
Bravo, I remember her from 96. I like her style of gymnastics, always a thrill to watch her perform.
Прекрасная гимнастка, яркая представительница советской школы спортивной гимнастики. Каждое движение - искусство. Браво, Лилия!
Sooo much control, grace, and power!
How is it 2024 and this is the first time I’m hearing of Lilia?!
I’m a fan!
Лилия Подкопаева- не подкопаться! Совершенство
Bella, me encanta como lo hace, espectacular!!!
she makes the whole thing look so easy....
One of the best - love her. Execution is not matched by many today.
OMG SHE'S SO CONSISTENT AND GOOD OMG
omg, she is SO GOOD! I LOVE HER! it´s fantastic!!!!
アトランタオリンピック女子個人総合はほんとに凄いメンバー揃いでしたね。今見ても最高の大会だと思います。
her landings are soooo friggin secure!!!!
You're the best Lilia :)
Everyone was so impressed by her floor routine, but I think she impressed me on bars the most. You don't see such grace in bar routines any more...except for maybe the Chinese. But I'm American, and it's definitely the apparatus we have the most trouble with.
She was kind of awful on bars though. Tons of mistakes and form issues.
Hello, do Russian bars not exist?
On her floor she landed first pass right into the corner... that's cool!
I noticed that for the first time, too. It just shows you the imperfections in gymnastics judging ... but because the gap between her and silver medalist Gina Gogean was substantial (by the standards of the sport, 0.18 is), I'd say that the faulty score of 9.887 awarded to her FX didn't make a difference. Lilia was still the deserving winner.
I am so exited because I am going to be at Woodward one of the weeks she is there!
Una diosa de la Gymnacia
She was so good
The best ever!
for 1996, her handstand work was fine
so beautiful!
my ALL TIME fave =)
Наша гордость!
Чья ваша ?
Украины
Кирилл
ааа, а я чёт думал,что она из Донецка,а не из Львова например. Да и Киев,Днепр и Ивано-Франковс такую гимнастку тоже чёт не воспитали... странно.
А Бубка чья гордость ?
+Пират XXI века Я тебя что то не пойму!
Что ты имеешь в виду?
А что Подкопаева в лугандонии живет , или считает себя "донецкой" а не украинской спортсменкой?
Троль убогий , за что тебе только платят.
Lilia Podkopaieva, Nadia Comaneci y Olga Korbut las 3 con más gracia en la gimnasia olimpica
Amazing and original
Very graceful! Modern gymnasts focus solely on technicality .Unfortunately.
Gold Lilia❤
This NHK coverage shows some of Lilia's little form breaks which were unnoticeable in the NBC coverage.
I love her
Как четко все . Артистка !
Oh, she is so smart!
Her bars were definitely overscored compared to the rest of the competition. But I guess they had to in order for her to win and save us from having Gogean as the Olympic Champion.
Pretty high score for bars considering the major form break. But still a legend.
Волшебная девочка
La última presentación del video fue genial, en piso
Great 👍
Супер!
Перекачанная Симона Байлз нервно курит в сторонке :)
Lovely
she certainly did
I met her today
Best lines of all time?
I definitely feel that Komova is likely the gymnast with the best lines of all time.
That bars was a 9.650 at best but hey at least we didn’t end up with Amanar or gogean as champion so I can overlook it.
I disagree. Lilia's technique on her full-in dismount off bars can be pretty dodgy at times.
And she didn't really need to have a more difficult dismount because she already had a 10.0 SV.
im gonna meet her at woodward
Is it just me or did she miss most of her handstand on bars
😊
Ah you can really see the errors on her UB set on this angle
Not the biggest fan of Lilia in that I found her gymnastics to have somewhat of a heavy quality, especially on UB and BB. I also found her form overly rigid and locked in and her choreography on floor to be kitschy (others are free to disagree of course). But credit to her in being able to rise to the occasion and deliver the goods when it mattered because that's what a champion does.
gk891 I agree. At some point this is a gymnastics competition, not the ballet. She had incredibly beautiful lines, but I question the difficulty level of some of her routines. You can’t tell me that her beam set was anywhere close to the level of difficulty of Dawes or Miller, and she was way overscored there. Still, she hit when it counted, and Dawes fell apart.
Podkobyeva blew Dawes and Shannon out of the water as far as difficulty is concerned whilst being so artistically superior at the same time. What are you even talking about.
@@shushunovafan4301. Right?!?!?
@@shushunovafan4301 harder than Shannon? Hardly lmao
@@josephqualtier961 not on beam. Everywhere else yes, floor especially had become an issue for Shannon by 96
Hubiera sido genial si no fallaban las 3 rusas ....cómo hubiera sido el resultado...
где ты. научилась ктакому
В Украине.
she was so much favored by the judges at that time, and was put into the gold medal position with her over scored performance.
She definitely deserved it that day, there was definitely potential for others to beat her but there were a lot of mistakes especially from the Americans. Well deserved title.
That's not the point. Rather, it was that her routine wasn't as flawless as the score of 9.887 would indicate (a little more than a tenth away from perfection). As somebody below posted, these videos show form breaks in Lilia's routines (floor and elsewhere) that the NBC videos did not.
scoring at this olympics was messed up.
i agree that lilia was a deserving winner, as she was clearly the best. but her scores are wacko. how on earth did her bars score more than her vault?
My scores:
Vault: 9.825
Bars: 9.75
Beam: 9.825
Floor: 9.9
You have to keep in mind that the two vaults were averaged.
They were averaged and also start value. Even though it was technically high, her vaults were not considered difficult and she hit her bars set.
If only it were in english
she had big problems at the UB, but the referrees decided not to see that...big mistakes for an AA Olympic champion.
I did not like
Who cares?
You are wrong.
She's great.
