Stella Umeh - 1992 Worlds Semifinals - Floor Exercise

[braveheartlioncarebe]

one of the most underrated gymnasts of all time. I always enjoy her routines, this was no exception

[jamesbug2002]

THIS IS GYMNASTICS! hahaha..it's funny to see how the judges were confused at how to put her first jump sequence..then her spins..hahaha..poor judges..but GOOD for Stella for bringing such a wonderful routine! I wish there is a top notch gymnast out there who'd dare the judges and perform such magnificent pieces like this!

I am no really a follower of WAG but I think this routine is probably the best FX  I have ever seen a WAG do. She did not do something cutsie like Fraguas (who made finals) and was true to herself and her heritage. This routine should have been in finals just so people could see you can be a muscular woman athlete with curves, do an exercise that is not Euro or US focused, and still be a great gymnast. This was really good work by Stella.

She went on to compete NCAA at UCLA after she retired. She is from Ontario (Missisauga).

She often used African music because her father is from Nigeria.
