@@gccstan31 I'd also include Vladislava Urazova, Angelina Melnikova, and Suni Lee because when they do wolf turns they do them confidentially unlike most today who fall out of them and fall off beam due to those turns and beautifully.
@@Gymnastics-me8hu Just saw Urazova's triple wolf turn at the Russian BB EF. Holy moly you weren't joking, it was a thing of beauty. Edit: Okay and a double wolf turn connected afterwards, what the hell :D
Deng Linlin is a beautiful gymnast - I feel she isn't given enough credit for her job at two Olympic games (one of the few chinese gymnasts to be in two olympic teams) including individual beam title in 2012 and other performances (like this one). Or maybe I just haven't followed closely enough to see credit she has received.
“They think it’s fashion, I think it’s a faux pa”. Good thing your opinion doesn’t mean jack Tim- wish someone would just gag him when this stuff is being aired.
I cannot deal with the commentary. They don’t comment on much of the routine. It’s about colours of leotards, politics of gymnastics, etc. BBC commentary is far better.
Tbt to when wolf turns were “cool” and “unique”
I had to lol too :D I don't like wolf turns tbh, they look wonky unless prime Simone Biles does them

don't forget Grace mccallum tho
deng linlin is a BEAST her beam is PHENOMENAL and it has been for a LONG TIME
And she proved it by winning Olympic gold in London!
Deng Linlin really was special.
Less than a minute in, and the commentators complain about an Italian athlete not wearing her country's colors because she's wearing... Green.
:D
They are idiots. It’ll be a great day when Tim retires.
What happens when idiots commentate.

She definitely is given credit in China :D Love her as well
She is considered a legend in China.
Have they cut routines out
Yes they did
Lauren would have won gold easily in a later quad. Deng would have been hammered for her chest being so low on so many of the landings.
And some very questionable connections.

I am clueless why he is still hired as the Olympic commentator. So many better options.
@@pappysprite same here. I so much prefer the BBC commentary- so much more professional
