Nastia Liukin - 2007 World Championships - TF - Beam

[bernardmvella]

That is quick thinking....

[afgymnast96]

I love how they didn't notice until she landed!

[AtlanteanxPrincess]

I dont think he foot actually slips off, i think she sort of landed on the middle off her foot, rather than her whole foot on the beam. I remember what happened when her foot did slide off at the 2006 Championships and she looked scared. It was probably safer to do that, than try and do her twists. =/

[level7gymnastics]

Stop at 1:31 or 1:32 you will see her foot landed on the side...

[nastiafan1]

:) nice job!

[Pedro375]

It´s really strange !

Her fall was terrible !

She made all the coreography and vaults perfectly .

Her exit of the beam was her worst exit !

[Nasiir48]

Her foot was completely off the beam. She would have fallen and hurt herself had she tried for her triple.

[Stella1love]

both of her feet were on the beam during her dismount! at least she didnt hurt herself

[Beccka]

No - on the back handspring one of her feet slipped off . She saved it as best she could.

[UGGO87]

I Love Nastia!!!

[horsegirl04]

bridget is injured right now, she had surgery on her knee.

[snickbick]

when does she get time for it to heal? Because she really needs it! Is she going to the olympics?

[exohitzcrysta4]

YES SHE IS! same with shawn johnson!

[crazy4gymnastics4224]

i wonder if she tried her real dismount and fell she would've gotten less taken off? idk, she probably just did it to avoid more injury.

[KajaRG]

A fall is a .8 deduction.

[gymweb]

NO. her foot slipped on the hurtle and when that happens u dont have enough power to pull off a dismount.

[crazy4gymnastics4224]

yea, it probably would've cause more disaster. possibly even another injury.

[mrflipz]

yea. I think something might be flairing up again becuase Nastia had her ankle wrapped at the 08 Pac about week ago and also watered down her first pass.

[exohitzcrysta4]

yah if you tried to do her normal dismount, shed prolly brake her neck! ahh and we rlly dont want that to happen!

[crazy4gymnastics4224]

it WAS such a good routine. she probably got a little over-excited. she is so great though. she will be SO ready in 08.

[NastiaLiukinFan]

Hei , she give a 15.125 With NO Dismount!!! I think that she would give a 16.100/16.120. The greatest score never give on beam by Nastia

[gymnast08ia]

shes gotten scores like that many times

[mmmgym9876]

hmm.. what happened with this dismount?  anyone no ?

[nastialiukincom]

Nastia said she lost her concentration after doing a good routine and rushed her dismount a little. If you look closely you can see that she missed her foot on her hurdle and elected to do a very simple dismount to avoid serious injury.

[vesperholly]

Watch her right foot into the cartwheel. It slipped completely off the side of the beam. No way to get enough power for a double back after that.

[NewMinako]

yep even if she never did a double back but a 2.5 or triple twist

[ANAsfee]

she is so grat - but what happened in the end?
