Now THIS is artistic gymnastics; just beautiful. The attention to detail, such as beautiful poetic hands, and perfect splits positions, just makes such a difference. Todays gymnasts should be forced to watch this and maybe learn something about amplitude and extension on elements. I blame the death of the compulsories for the shocking form we see in many of todays gymnasts; its a lack in performing the basics which leads to horrendous form.
I know what you mean but personally I always hated having to do the compulsories. I like to think that the lack of good form is due to the fact that coaches rush into the really difficult skills as opposed to spending time on perfecting basic skills like kips
I think the final layout was a mistake, (just about the only mistake she made) based on the fact that she redoes that pass at the end of her training.
Thank you for finding this for me and making it available again, since I lost what I captured. lol YAY! I shouldda shared so much more than just that 4 part series extra at the end.
She has to be the best gymnast I've never heard of! Her beam is amazing and her form is exquisite on every apparatus. Thank you for uploading this!

What happened to Kati? She seemed to vanish without trace. She didnt win any major titles did she? I dont get it; she was such a beautiful gymnast:(

That handspring swing through to Onodi-exquisite. I would even call it a different skill. She positively floated that Onodi. And the turn-divine.

Her toe point scares me, and her splits position is perfect. Oh gymnastics of the olden days, how I miss thee

Absolutely exquisite. I wish gymnastics still looked like this.

Incredible. Reminds me a bit of Liapina. I miss these older code of points that encouraged long tumbling passes and lots and lots of layouts.
Was the landing on her final layout a mistake or intentional for style?
