2009 AYOF Natalia Joura AUS UB

[gymnasticsstar12345]

aweh! she was soo tight. she must have had a bad day.

[QueenieQue]

I'm sorry, I don't mean offense, but I REALLY don't see stardom in this girl's future. She is clearly not even capable of elite skills (I'm not even really sure why she's at the elite level), she clearly cracks under pressure, and she doesn't have a supportive coach. Even highly talented Aussie gymnasts like Lauren Mitchell have trouble making it on the international stage. I just don't think gymnastics is this girl's area of talent.

y so many toe shoots if she cant do them? shes good, but needs to work on those transitions. u roc natalia!

[Rebeccabwfc]

@TheHorseyGymnast Prob just nerves

[TheHorseyGymnast]

true. this video shows that all future champs start out somewhere. thats why, although i feel bad, i love this routine

[TheHorseyGymnast]

is she dasha's sister and is her score ou tof a 10? cuz in another one she fell and it said 9.7

[flippingymkid]

No, with open ended scoring, her total score is execution + difficulty, which gives you a number above 10.

[TheHorseyGymnast]

o. thnx

[alexzjay]

Gorgeous first handstand.

[LilMissCheye]

is that dasha in the backround? like saying cmon nat? it sounds like her lol

[flippingymkid]

I doubt it was Dasha, I didn't see her anywhere near me. There were families of other AUS team girls sitting near me, though.

[LilMissCheye]

aww poor nat. i feel so sorry for her whole bar routine :(

and the dismount.

she is usually amazing. she was jsut having a bad day.

[Illja3]

She obviously isn't as good as her sister on uneven bars.. Altough it's probably (hopefully, cause she has beautifull lines!!) due to a bad day or something.. In the AA her UB was just as dramatically..

[apluskel]

wow, that was terrible. I wouldnt have had her compete that routine, she wasn't ready to

[millythemoose95]

pretty sure she's 13.

and you do know that that is dasha joura's little sister...

[HereWasRachel]

poor girl, but like people have said, lovely handstands, especially promising because she's young.

[leetkewld00d]

She is way better than He Kexin on bars!!

[theramblingscot]

amazing handstands! i imagine she just had an off routine, but if she nailed all that stuff she would have an awesome routine!

[leeuwtjeeef]

Wow how can you still do such good handstands in such a dramatic routine. You go girl!

[smiFromBelarus]

nice lines, how old is she?

[LilMissCheye]

i think shes almost 14

[fcavalheiro]

Poor girl, she is very talented.

[gymdweeb]

it's painful to watch that. she has loads of potential. that gienger was sky high!

[MunchTheSilivasFan]

Ok, so logic says don't make her do that transition. She quite plainly can't, do they want her to hurt herself?

[EMTQueen]

Well, a 9.150 would be a decent score under the old system...

Poor girl. Not a good day, was it?

[smallsoph]

:S poor thing

[DanishRoyalFan15]

poor thing! but she has fantastic handstands!

[havarahel]

it looks like the bars were too close together for her.

[Giulyx16]

What e disaster!!!Lovely handstands!

[samaraGW]

thanks a lot for all these vids, really appreciated! :)

[schill2002]

such a nice straight handstand when she gets to it! kudos to her for gutting it out...

[dianajc]

at least she had good form on those tap swings!!

[rhys123abc]

poor girl. I think she could be great though!
