Svetlana Boginskaya - 1996 Olympics Team Compulsories - Balance Beam

I didn't realize she was in the 96 olympics as well. At that point, was she there representing Belarus? I had thought 92 was her last one

[indiatree]

she just seemed unsure of herself or something.....and a little bit choppy.

[bbhouk1]

her Valdez was very choppy

Rewatching it, I think the judges could've been a little more generous. I think when I looked earlier it said she got a 9.425--the same score as what Dominque Dawes received.

elfi needs to fucking shut up, i can't stand her.

Not that I could do all the moves, but I started fooling around with gymnastics 3 months ago and could do that dismount...Front handspring front tuck with half twist? Easy!

[jeterlover03]

where's the difficulty?

[QueenieQue]

@jeterlover03 This is a compulsory routine, duh. It was a routine made up of "basic" skills that all the gymnasts have to compete. If you want the difficulty, watch her optionals routine.

@jeterlover03

It's Compulsories = minimum requierments.

[Timtation69]

lovely and underscored a bit

[willsbob123]

I would have scored her: 9.775.

[gymnasticsloverxoxo]

@willsbob123 are you a huge bogi fan? because you score her much higher then all the other gymnasts.

[willsbob123]

@gymnasticsloverxoxo I wouldn't say I'm a fan at all. I just think her grace is superior to any of the other gymnasts who competed her, apart from Svetlana Khorkina and Lilia Podkopayeva.

[moopoo66]

@willsbob123 i love svetlana great bar worker but i think her style is a little more originalty more then grace

[LhunGalad]

I miss beam routines with substance like this!

[chitinaak]

Flawless!

[saltlakecity2002]

Actually it wasn't too flawless. She was short on the 2nd split.
