yep. the soviet era WAS THE golden era. beautiful, graceful, floating in the air like nymphs...the tumbles, the dances, the beam jumps...it was a pleasure to watch them, it was the most beautiful ballet ever. today's only about muscles....
they'll always be remembered! thanks for the video!
these girls make gymnastics more complicated that it already is--twisted and tumble-crazy. just look at those mounts, they're always innovating moves.
Thanks for that - you've got some pretty rare footage there. I love the unusual roundoff swing down (like a korbut but from a roundoff) that a very young Shoushounova performed on the beam in that montage. Thanks for sharing.
