Oh, wow...Awesome video!!!!....I actually believe the bars routines were more difficult in the 70" because of the way the bars were set for each gymnast. Stalters, hip circles and presses were the only way to get up into a handstand on the high bar. Compared to Giants which I learned very easily (in one day) when training for the new bar settings. Wow, I wish I knew someone to talk "Old School" gymnastics with!!!
its so funny that back in the day uneven bars were more like parallel bars and now theyre more like the high bar! gymnastics changed so much within an 8 year period
bar routines look amazingly hard. wow. i agree, when your hips bend around the bars must hurt. especialy at the end when she pushes off the bar with noithing but hber hips. and they probably made bar routines easier because floor routines got harder so they had to do alot more training. i am working on my bars alot harder than ever! floor routines are my speacialty. almost on a level 8! (:
@rockkitt88 Hiya. Nadia got me into gymnastics. Was in it for 6 years. It was in the late 70's. In BARS each gymnast had to take time to set the bars to fit their bodies. Cast into the low bar while gripping the top. Yes, some of those things were hard, but surprisingly did not hurt (much,LOL) Eagles for example, looked cool cuz gravity and centrifugal force would keep you spinning on the bottom bar with no hands so that you can pop off and grab the top bar. Very scary when you first learn it.
Some of the routines looked alot easier but the bars, wow.
In my opinion they looked alot harder to do. I mean can you imagine practising that in training? must of been painful especially when the hips bend around the bar.
Thats why I love Olga and Nadia so much, they're the legends of Gymnastics :) No one could ever beat them,
fabulosas imagenes, buen montaje; y además de todo lo bueno que puede verse, al ver la calidad de ejecución de Nadia, dan ganas de titular tu video como old gymnastic and perfection for ever
WOW, im really diggin those bar routines form back then. More entertaining for me to watch, creative. If someone did a routine liek that nowadays, people would be blown away! I love gymnastics!!
i love gymnastics and i did it for ten years but because where i live theres not many great training gyms and so recently i quit. hopefulley wen i grow up and have kids they will like it too.
look at vera smiling while she does her bar routine ... oh myyy ... imagine a gymnast trying to do that in todays gymnastics ... great music, great montage! keep up with this great collection u have!!!
Ludmilla Tourischeva, Nelli Kim, Olga, Nadia, Kathy Rogby and a few others I didn't recognize. Beautiful montage for a compelling, grafeful sport. Gracias alot.
omg did u c da bars i mn it cud b easy easier den wat we do now in d olympics but wen u lu @ it just seems complicated lol but i do fink dat gymnastix bak den was much easier den now
Woah Kevin!!! That was a beautiful montage! And the music ... just beautiful /// great "old skool" :) nice to see some ppl who still apreciate that ... :) keep upleading
Wow. This was beautiful. So much old footage I had never seen before. Was wondering if you had much footage from the mid to late 70's with all the great Russian and Romanian gymnasts etc. Would love to see a montage of the Nadia era! Especially gymnasts like Mukhina, Shaposhnikova, Filatova, Kathy Johnson and Emilia Eberle. I also loved your music for this video.
the girl broke the bars

Is it me, or are the uneven bars closer to one another in the past compared to today?
I think I might Google that.

@9BallQueen Yes they were....Each individual gymnast had to the bars so that she could cast easily into the low bar while gripping the top.
