Thank god you chose Dani for #1! She's my favorite gymnast of all time, and by far the best floor worker. Thanks, that was a beautiful selection of gymnasts! One of the best lists I've seen so far that was free from bias and full of lovely gymnastics.
Though Lashenova was a tremendous tumbler it was kind of boring to see her throw 3 double backs into her routine, clever yes, just a bit un-original (in no way am I taking her out of your top ten Mrs T ! ) im sure she had power to throw a full in on one of them or a triple twist......
@garyj79 maybe it was boring but i guess she did it because she had so much on her first tumbling but like you say she was very powerful and i think she could have done a double double.
@mrsTorrard88 - thx, I hope it didnt come across as a critiscm of her being in your personal top ten, It wasnt! im assuming that wouldnt be allowed in todays rules anyway, three tumbling runs being the same???
@garyj79 yeah it would be a deduction and actually i agree with you it would be boring and because she cowboyed the double twist which was very common in the 80s it looks ugly. One of the best double twists i have seen would be Nelli kim in 1976 on floor.
I love that backbend at 1:00 which is slow, the little walk she does with her feet, all the dance moves and she stuck the landing without taking a step back (which I don't really like, I am not really a fan of the prepare, breathe, shrug and salute).
Second one:
I love the little layout kick thing at 2:14 and then all the continuous bouncy handsprings.
