This was probably the last time she did "normal" choreography, thank goodness. But even at a young age, her gymnastics was beautiful. And I love to see how people's unique mannerisms carry with them throughout their lives. Svetlana has many of these unique qualities: that stoic stare, the way she hunches her shoulders at times, and the somewhat masculine gait. All combined to make a beautiful gymnast.
So she's always had that stare...brrr. Well, fabulous routine but the music and choreography don't exactly fit her the best. She was at her absolute best performing avant garde and dramatic routines.
Here, she didn't yet have the gravitas or experience of her later, more dramatic Era. I think this music was age appropriate and, of course, totally 80's. But of course, her later routines were her forte.
She didn't improve acrobatically much after this anymore. Also because of her heigth of course. Gymnasts often say that that acrobatics was easier when they were younger, shorter and lighter. Especially as a woman it's hard to compensate your maturing body with power. I think this video is an example of that, compared to what she could do let's say 6 years later. Of course she did improve a lot artistically, in an era when that still was appreciated.
I love how she warms up throwing a back handspring-full as if she was just doing a back bend or something.
Her dancing was so mature and confident for a little girl of 11 or 12! If she were in today's Olympics everyone would go crazy for her.
Omg! I never saw her at this age before! She is so adorable!
Las RUSAS.siempre las #1!!

This sounds like an 80's new wave remix of the Benny Hill Show theme song.
it looked very similar to most of the routines she did later- she was always quirky in her choreography- it was nice to see someone different.

Spot on!
She was self-conscious about her dead tooth 😔

even at 12 shes far too sophisticated for the cheeky adolescent music selection
Гениальная спортсменка!
There was always something about Boginskaya 💙
Boy, she's a much better dancer than most. Even better than she did at the Olympics years later.

A born stunner.
Great power and great control!
I love the 80's music!
WHAT A QUEEN I WILL ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS BE A FAN!!! I love you Svetlana you will always be my very favorite. You are flawless.
She'd been doing gymnastics for 4 years at this point.
😳😳😳 OMG, I just had to look this up and what the....
You can tell she had the elegance at a very young age. However, she always looked so sad/mad until 96 when she got her teeth capped.
I got her autograph at my gymnastics meet today 2013
So good, even at this age!
Love the claps in time with the music lol.
Yes. Those claps were such a cute touch in the routine.
I bet that music was so cool in 1985 hahha it makes me laugh now I love the 80's!
I gave that a perfect 10....good job RUSSIA!!! She grew up to be a pretty woman, too!
Well technically she's from Belarus
Considered too tall, Svetlana would be a dominant Gymnast for the next 15 or so years! She IS a Swan in human form!
One of my favorite gymnasts❤❤
Beautifull forever but everytime with her KGB agent face
She would have made one heck of a KGB agent, too, lol!
Awesome routine AND music! Bravo!
omg i remember this. she was so flexible. hard to believe she was a teen only :) shes cool.
This choreography is conventional compared to her later routines lol.
Wow that mess.up hair of hers is amazing
"Hai" means yes.
She started Gymnastics at age 6.. here she is almost 12... so it's 6 years of gymnastics not 4.
You can see over a thousand years of Mongolian descent
gorgeous even then!
Its the music box dancer. Its cute routine she got the body type. Puts a smile on ya face watching it.
No one knew that she would pretty much be the number 1 in the World for a decade!
Steeley eyes even at the age of 11.
omg shes so cute aaaaaaa
Bella
Thanks babe! Hai! ;0)
既に手先、足先まで素晴らしいボギンスカヤ選手(^_-)-☆

Shes still beautigul
that's AWESOME floor music! hahahahaha
The Swan was The best!
i met her
Omg the 80s synth
She was 12
She performed very well- in typical Bogi style. But that music is about the most cringe inducing I've ever heard even for the 80's, lol.
ボギンスカヤのボインスキヤ

A lenda urálica
First routine from Svet-swane-a the belarussian swan svetlana boginskaya on yt?
yes there’s a consolation made my world art gym
Made In Japan
今は亡きテレビ朝日、三好康之アナウンサーの声がなつかしい。彼女のプログラムで、最終タンブリングが２回ひねりで終わっているのは不満。ソウル五輪でも故・加納弥生さんが「せめて２回宙返りですね」。直後の中日カップ体操でも、加藤宏子さんが「イワノワやシリバシュに比べて技が落ちる」と、それぞれ指摘していた。１９８９年には２回宙返りに変えていたのだから、この時点でプログラムの問題点を改善すべきだと思った。
この時代の体操のファンで、この演技もテレビで見ていました。ボギンスカヤは技がこの時以降難易度が上がりませんでしたね。練習では伸身ダブルを練習していた動画がありましたが。
表現力やムードで点数をもらっていましたが現代の採点方法では無理でしょうね。技の難易度が低かったですから。
ソウル五輪ではバイトワやシェフチェンコ、ラシェノワの演技の方が技の難易度が高く(シュシュノワは別格です。)、表現力もそれなりにありましたから何故ボギンスカヤが高得点を取れるのか？個人総合に出場出来たのか？不思議でした。
いずれにせよ、この時代の体操が懐かしいです。近年の女子体操は選手が凄い筋肉で特に肩～腕が凄くてある動画のコメントに動物に例えて『ゴリラみたい』って書き込みがあり、そうかもしれないって思いました。
あの流れるような、一つの線でつながったような美しい演技が懐かしいです。
@@yukkoyunho-1146 さん、ご返信有難うございます。当時の床運動は、フィギュア、シンクロ同様、半分はショーでしたから、音楽の選曲、プログラムや振付、エンターテインメント性、それらの実施、が採点基準だったので、美人やカワイ子ちゃんでなくても高得点が出せましたね。ボギンスカヤやシュシュノワ、ラチュノワ、等は、どうみても容姿の点で、ツリシチェワ、フィラトワ（ちびっこ代表だったが、成長したら相当な美人になった）、ユルチェンコ等、には及びませんでしたね。オメリアンチク、クチ、その後のイワノワ、デュドニク等は見た目も良かったのですが。
I wish the japanese didnt feel the need to talk a whole way through performances and say the enigmatic 'skay does gorr nay...' after EVERYTHING
"So des neh..."😂
Haha, yes, my mistake. Thanks for the correction!
저 얼굴에 체조하기는 너무 아깝다.완전 공주네.가만히 아무것도 안해도 공주대접 받아도 되겠구만
잠오는 목소리 일본아나운서...!😑😮💨
