@The2bfamous There isn't a limit to how many moves you can do, but in 2008, they took the 10 most difficult skills done to count towards the D-score. Since 2009, they changed it to the 8 most difficult skills. Also, in general a time-limit isn't needed on an event like bars, where it's constantly moving (unlike floor and balance beam)
When you watch the 2008 Olympics, you can tell they were in China because when the Chinese perform there is lots more applause... and needless to say they all are fantastic.
sorry misspelled tkachev. Also, I do agree with the one comment that the chinese have been underscored for years... take a look at 97 world beam EF when Khorkina won and the chinese got bronze... That was a robbery
@citiuscovax1 That was Gina Gogean who took the gold, not Svetlana (she got silver). Svetlana's routine wasn't as boring as Gina;s but Kui was definitely better than both of them...
Wow, they both had great routines. However, there were visible issues in Nastia's routine that were just not present in He's. Other than the giant cowboy on her double front half out... and its not a blind landing so thus not more difficult... she has legs apart at the bottom of almost every front giant she does AND the back giant before her tchakev. There are errors there and please dont say because they were tall... so were betty okino, boyginskaya and khorkina
@citiuscovax1 he has dead hangs, muscled up kips and leg separations as well. her arms are bent at times and had some difficulties with her pirouettes. he's routine is more impressive, but you cant say there were no visible errors.
I love Nastia's gymnastics but there is no comparison He Kexin deserved that medal. That was an amazing bar routine that Nastia simply isnt able to do.
Just like that, huh? Why doesn't every gymnast just simply raise their difficulties? I guess no one heard that Beth Tweddle had a routine with a higher difficulty than Nastia.
wow she did amazing! anybody competeing at this level of gymnastics is amazing, but i think that Nastia and Yang Yilin did a better job then He on this one. He definately got a little overscored. she had a dead hang a step on landing and a couple form breaks.I think the judging was a little unfair for yilin and kexin.
He Kexin is awesome but honestly I think both Nastia AND He should have gotten gold because of the fact that He took a step on her dismount and Nastia's only real visual error was that her knees were apart in her dismount but most double fronts are done that way so it's easier to land.
@XxSportyMusicGirlxX Even considering only the visual errors you mentioned, He's step is a -0.1 deduction while Nastia's knees apart are a -0.3 deduction. So I'm having a problem with why you think Nastia should have also gotten gold. Also, why does doing something that makes it "easier to land" excuse Nastia's obvious form problem? I mean, taking a step makes it "easier to land" too and is even more common.
@GetAGrip2016 Taylor Swift has a beautiful video. Beyonce has a beautiful video too. There should have been two MTV video music awards. They are both great music artists and both deserve it.

@LCAmarkymark i completley agree, they need to stop doing it and thinking they can get away with it! htey will be caught one day and stripped of two golds which will go to americans. they deserved thise medals but its their fault if they lose them
@TheJordy456 Kexin's step on landing is a minor deduction. Nastia's horrible form on her "cowboyed" double-front dismount, however, is a major deduction. So the only bull here is maybe the one Nastia was trying to ride.
@bikerOGX i didnt see anything wrong with the form on nastias dismount because you are aloud to tuck like that she also tucks with her knees like that on her double front on floor ex so i dont see where that would bring a big deduction and if you didnt know her and he kexin tied and the way the computer was set up made He win. so its your opinion and btw i love he kexin too so im not being harsh just because im from the u.s.
@TheJordy456 You do realize that you're supposed to keep your knees together in a tuck, right? Toes should be pointed also. Now go look at a video of Nastia's dismount again and tell me there's nothing wrong with her form. You're correct that she cowboys her double front on FX also. That's why she gets the same deduction there too. And the tie-break rule may seem kind of arbitrary, but the rule has been in effect at numerous competitions for over 10 years before the Beijing Olympics.
@bikerOGX i'm pretty sure that he gold winning coach/father would not let her get a deduction on such a stupid thing so i think they know what they are doing. and she put her legs together when she lands so thats what really matters. and many people tuck like that on floor too and there olympians. im not trying to be mean im just saying and we both have our opinions.
@TheJordy456 LOL. Try reading the Code of Points. It has nothing to do with opinion. You have a leg separation, you lose points. You flex your feet, you lose points. It's that simple. It's not like Nastia prefers to have bad form. She does it because she knows she doesn't have enough rotation to land her double-front properly, so she pulls her legs into ugly cowboy form in order to lower the moment of inertia and speed up rotation. It's better than under-rotating and landing on your ass.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@bikerOGX Well it also doesn't help that Nastia, who plays by the rules, has to compete against 13 year olds who are the size of 10 year olds, which makes it so much easier for them to rotate fast. He Kexin should lose a ton of points for the way she loses ALL momentum after the transition from low bar to high bar and has to totally muscle her way into a handstand, it looks so labored and inelegant.
@courtneysk8s Well, if it's so damn easy for 13 year olds to perform on UB, then name a single U.S. Junior in 2008 that even comes close to Nastia's 7.7 start value. If you can't, then STFU about all this underage advantage crap. It's really getting old. If Kexin really was 13, it just makes it that much more impressive. Also, Beth Tweddle is taller, larger and older than Nastia, yet she's able to get the proper rotation on her dismount without looking like a dead frog. Why can't Nastia???
The almost dead hang after her first series of releases and the heavily muscled kip up to high bar are what kill me. I like that she has a bold routine when everyone else relied on pirouetting that quad. Now, she has improved her kips in the last two years which makes her routines all the better.
Nastia is a lovely bar worker. She has a lot of flair, but I saw more mistakes in her routine than I did in He Kexin's routine. They both have a different style and both are exceptional athletes.
she did do amazing skills and was good but that toe up to high bar was kind of a dead catch her last blind tuns were sloppy and then the step on the dismount with her chest down nastia had a lil close hip to the bar catch on her pak (layout to low bar) and legs apart in the air on her dismount and i guess her tkatchev could be a little higher but other than that her routine seemed way cleaner and closer to perfection then this one.He Kexin ahould of been second
so u know how nastia liuken seems really tall? well shes actually not. shes about my height (5'3) and shes like 7 years older than me too! she seems so tall compared to all those other gymnasts, especially the chinies ones. does that mean there like 4 feet only?
nastia liukin is not 5 ft 3 and to tell you, youre short!! nastia liukin has a body for rhythmic gymnastics and shes about 5 ft 6 -7 ft. the other chinese gymnasts, the shortest is 4 ft 9
no shes actually 5'1, not 5'3. ive seen her and shes about 3 inches smaller than me. im 5'4 and thats pretty tall (unless your a volleyball player) for a 12 year old girl. I go to the same gym as her and i (used to) see her all the time
Nastia is NOT 5'6 she is like 5'2. To do bars at the elite level you have to set them at fig. So she just appears to be really tall. Plus everyone else is wicked short
Kexin is awesome. :) So is Nastia. Personally, I think Nastia seemed to have done in better because she was taller and all that which made her look more elegant on the bars, but truly, they are both really really good.
i love her release combination and the layed out jeager. she's not the best in bars, she only beat Nastia because of a tie breaker rule that was unrelated to bars. in my mind they both are the best. many other Olympic competitions have had people share medals in the past.
That "Nastya" girl is over scored, Yilin was much better as was Beth. Kexin showed originality and an exciting routine which few people can do in this code. While Nastia's is so eeehhhhhhh
She's absolutely fantastic, but it always kills me that gymnasts who can do as much on the UB as the Chinese can still muscle their kips and can't do a decent toe shoot to save their lives.
Are people actually making excuses for Nastia cowboying her legs because she's TALL? lol Tell that nonsense to someone like Khorkina. Liukin could learn a thing or two from her on how to keep your legs together for her dismount.
At least she can do it with beautiful pointed toes!
Nastia's dismount is a D, like Kexin's.
''Such a difficult dismount'', yeah right
Nastia is not the only woman who can do that dismount, and many others can do it WAY better than her, besides Nastia separes her legs in her inverted gigants.
I don't speak english, so I may have some gramatical mistakes.

I know there are many fans of He Kexin, but looking again to Nastia's exercise you could notice the handstands, better, the mounting of the bars from balance not from force, the perfect landing... I admire He Kexin, but in my opinion Nastia was better. Anyway, things are done for almost an year now... the rest are just words.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i agree...she misses handstands like crazy in this routine where as nastia hit most of them...shes not perfect, but she deffinatly did a lot better. and her dismount is a joke compared to nastias
She had some mistakes. She mounted the high bar from force few times, not from balance like it should be. The skills she is doing are amazing, but still, there should be deductions for those things.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
theres somethin 2 sayy about throwing the skills, and executing them well. dont get me wrong, imma 100% nastia, but it seems like kexin is not executing. theres a difference in my opinion about cowboying such a dificult dismount, and having bad hects. in myy opinion the standings should have been liukin, yilin, kexin. times like this are when the 10 should still be alive. the a score is bogus, and y teams like china are succeding, and not russia and romania. the FIG should bring back the 10!
Yang Yillin was near perfect, even though I love nastia. That day yang performed the best. Both nastia and he both missed handstands, which should have put them both out of gold medal position
the thing that gets me about this performance is that her pirouette before her dismunt was way off like beth tweddle's was and they destroyed beth for it and he gets gold, in my book thats BS
its the move she does at 0:28 - 0:30 and 0:37 - 0:39 and 0:44 - 0:46 and 0:48 - 0:50 (you can see on this one how much strength she needs to pull up because she doesnt have a lot of swing), nastia uses a kip to mount the bars.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What are you smoking? Her entire fucking routine blew ass. Nastia was beast. And no, I'm not being biased, I normally like Kexin- and she does do a good job- but this was TERRIBLE! She even hit the fucking bar. WTF?!??
@ninjachild5 Shut up! first of all she did win bars! second nastia has to spread her legs when she does giant because she is tall and would hit her feet on the bar if he didn't so dont comment if you dont know what you are talking about and nastia is far more grace full and nice looking in the air.
@TheJordy456 First, Khorkina was taller than nastia but never had any bent knees on giant. Nastia has: BAD TECHNIC. Being tall is not an excuse to have bad form. You work on it, you adapt the skill to your body. Second, your legs are supposed to be together on a tuck, other fact ! Cowboy= BAD TECHNIC, and DEDUCTIONS. Te only thing she worked on was twisting. Unfortunately, you need a oduble salto to fullfill requirement and they add this awdul double front she CAN T do properly. BAD TECHNIC.
@TinyAva93 Do u feel smarter after that ? Or more interesting ? I'd love to hear your answer, because a part from trying to .. What were u trying to do exactly ?
@Missnewyork28 I just figured, you're so into your "facts" that you'd like a few more to add to your file. If you are going to get all rude and nasty with other people, the least you could do is get your spelling right, it makes it so much easier to figure out what you're saying.
@TinyAva93 What is your prolem anyway ? I was just pointing out Nastia's mistakes and the fact that she doesn't deserve gold. If u have a,nything interesting to say about this, feel free. Criticizing my spelling, and u might find intersting that i'm not a native english speaker and that i make mistake; is so cheesy and not intersting. If i need any spelling tips, I'll use a dictionnary.
primera vez que escucho a un comentador hablando en español... por fin, He kexin is amazing of course much and a lot better than NASTIA.... buuuuuuu...
all chinese gymnasts are the best/! they are amazing they all have their own special events LOL XD like he with bars , chung with vault yang , is an all around gymnast , and yeah , they amaze me like for their size they can just beat alomist everone ... except shawn johnson :) shes the best in the worldd!! :)
Missing the lower bar has more to do with piking the body than it does straddling the legs. If I understand the physics correctly, straddling the legs on the downswing allows for more swing and force into the release.
Yeah, for me, Nastia's movements are too ordinary, lack of surprise.. I know her difficulty is 7.7 (same as He Kexin and Yang Yilin), however, the quality and performance just can't catch my eyes.. sorry.. and her dismount... not beautiful too~
With some judges' help, Liukin has been overscored on all 4 events. Because she has a low SV on vault, some judges help her with ridiculous high B score. Her Beam is often slow and has pauses between connections (shouldn't be counted as connected moves); her beam dismount is ugly. She crosses her legs and feet and separates her legs on almost all her floor landings. Her UB has many visible problems and a frog-like dismount. She cannot win if judged as how other gymnasts are judged.
Liukin always hugely seperates her legs on her bars dismount. She also has un-pointed toes,flat feet,and almost always separates her legs on her floor landings. These tricks make her dismount and landings much easier. Her connections on beam are often slow. She's beenoverscored for a long time perhaps due to her dad's close connections with east european judges? It's so funny when some american fans talk about "fair judging". Chinese are the ones who have often been underscored over the years.
is there a time limit on bars or a limit to how many moves you can do? i dont know much yet :(

no shes actually 5'1, not 5'3. ive seen her and shes about 3 inches smaller than me. im 5'4 and thats pretty tall (unless your a volleyball player) for a 12 year old girl. I go to the same gym as her and i (used to) see her all the time

Nastia is NOT 5'6 she is like 5'2. To do bars at the elite level you have to set them at fig. So she just appears to be really tall. Plus everyone else is wicked short

Kexin is awesome. :) So is Nastia. Personally, I think Nastia seemed to have done in better because she was taller and all that which made her look more elegant on the bars, but truly, they are both really really good.

i love her release combination and the layed out jeager. she's not the best in bars, she only beat Nastia because of a tie breaker rule that was unrelated to bars. in my mind they both are the best. many other Olympic competitions have had people share medals in the past.

Are people actually making excuses for Nastia cowboying her legs because she's TALL? lol Tell that nonsense to someone like Khorkina. Liukin could learn a thing or two from her on how to keep your legs together for her dismount.

Kexin's dismount a joke?
At least she can do it with beautiful pointed toes!
Nastia's dismount is a D, like Kexin's.
''Such a difficult dismount'', yeah right
Nastia is not the only woman who can do that dismount, and many others can do it WAY better than her, besides Nastia separes her legs in her inverted gigants.

I know there are many fans of He Kexin, but looking again to Nastia's exercise you could notice the handstands, better, the mounting of the bars from balance not from force, the perfect landing... I admire He Kexin, but in my opinion Nastia was better. Anyway, things are done for almost an year now... the rest are just words.

theres somethin 2 sayy about throwing the skills, and executing them well. dont get me wrong, imma 100% nastia, but it seems like kexin is not executing. theres a difference in my opinion about cowboying such a dificult dismount, and having bad hects. in myy opinion the standings should have been liukin, yilin, kexin. times like this are when the 10 should still be alive. the a score is bogus, and y teams like china are succeding, and not russia and romania. the FIG should bring back the 10!

she kept her legs pointed, and together on the dismount, and nastia didnt.
nastia didnt have to use that much strenth to get into her kips, and kexin did.
so they both had one thing the other doesnt.
both routines were really good.

its the move she does at 0:28 - 0:30 and 0:37 - 0:39 and 0:44 - 0:46 and 0:48 - 0:50 (you can see on this one how much strength she needs to pull up because she doesnt have a lot of swing), nastia uses a kip to mount the bars.

@ninjachild5 Shut up! first of all she did win bars! second nastia has to spread her legs when she does giant because she is tall and would hit her feet on the bar if he didn't so dont comment if you dont know what you are talking about and nastia is far more grace full and nice looking in the air.
TheJordy456 1 year ago
@TheJordy456 First, Khorkina was taller than nastia but never had any bent knees on giant. Nastia has: BAD TECHNIC. Being tall is not an excuse to have bad form. You work on it, you adapt the skill to your body. Second, your legs are supposed to be together on a tuck, other fact ! Cowboy= BAD TECHNIC, and DEDUCTIONS. Te only thing she worked on was twisting. Unfortunately, you need a oduble salto to fullfill requirement and they add this awdul double front she CAN T do properly. BAD TECHNIC.

Missing the lower bar has more to do with piking the body than it does straddling the legs. If I understand the physics correctly, straddling the legs on the downswing allows for more swing and force into the release.
auswriteratheart 2 years ago
Yeah, for me, Nastia's movements are too ordinary, lack of surprise.. I know her difficulty is 7.7 (same as He Kexin and Yang Yilin), however, the quality and performance just can't catch my eyes.. sorry.. and her dismount... not beautiful too~
cyrillim01 3 years ago 9
With some judges' help, Liukin has been overscored on all 4 events. Because she has a low SV on vault, some judges help her with ridiculous high B score. Her Beam is often slow and has pauses between connections (shouldn't be counted as connected moves); her beam dismount is ugly. She crosses her legs and feet and separates her legs on almost all her floor landings. Her UB has many visible problems and a frog-like dismount. She cannot win if judged as how other gymnasts are judged.

Liukin always hugely seperates her legs on her bars dismount. She also has un-pointed toes,flat feet,and almost always separates her legs on her floor landings. These tricks make her dismount and landings much easier. Her connections on beam are often slow. She's beenoverscored for a long time perhaps due to her dad's close connections with east european judges? It's so funny when some american fans talk about "fair judging". Chinese are the ones who have often been underscored over the years.
