Carly Patterson's all around beam routine

[cyke90]

Why don't they ever put the score and what placement they get?

[StormValleyStables]

Did she even check ONCE?!

[macintel666]

WOOOOOWWWW o.O' OMG! One of the best!!!!!!!

[atirgi1]

@1:17 - the end. i literally said What the fuck?!! That was amazing!

[kittyluverr98]

the 8 people that disliked this..lemme see you do a damn better routine

[dancergirlnh14]

That was such a clean and perfect routine i dident see her wobble once!!!!!

[1217sable]

Carly Patterson judged the mock meet at my gym. It was sooo much pressure!!!!

[lanecj1]

That was the most solid beam routine I have ever seen in my life:) i wish I was that good:) I think the biggest/only wobble was on her full turn:)))

[catieekemp]

@lanecj1 you're crazy. there was absolutely no wobble on that full turn.

[catieekemp]

@lanecj1 it's just the camera angle. but if you look at it from other angles there's no deduction on that spin. The only deductions in this routine are for deep squats or chest not being up enough on landings for a couple of the salto elements.

[frostdiamond1]

I miss when gymnastics was simpler. The routines are too darn cluttered nowadays.

[maryselover109]

GREAT!!!!!!!

[alfonsoboyx3]

Amazing!!!! Beautiful routine! Like oh my lawd

[gymnastixgurls]

A girl from my gym has that floor music lol

[Xcrispyz]

she landed it perfectly 0.o

[koolgurl462]

i like shawn johnson better

[AAUchamp55]

[michellejustin4eva]

AMAZING!!!



[itsbeccaforreals]

@Apfroditta they work out for hours everyday, and are constantly on a strict diet. it'd be unfair if they did have cellulite!

[Gymnastique49]

Bonne maitrise du mouvement !!

[iregonzalez96]

i loved her. and her dismount ws absolutely amazing

[LeilaLilzMathy]

like this if you were looking at the girl vaulting in the back :D

[starcheerleader102]

this routine was perfect!

[chinghxd]

HOLY SHIT! that dismount was stunning!!

[IshaBeauty11]

the spin was a little off but who am i to say that i can barley stand on the thing!

[IshaBeauty11]

holy shit!!! thats amazing!!!! I LOV U!!!

[1ShawnJohnson1]

Amazing.

[TinyAva93]

Carly was a good gymnast, and she definitely deserved to win the AA title at the Olympics, but she just has zero style. She's a robot.

[rachelandtessa1]

AMAZING!! the only thing her arabian looked a little bit off to me.

[jennyluvsjesus3902]

damn she good



[clemons1111]

In somewhat way, it reminds me of Shawn Johnson's beam routine, but this is awesome! I wish I could do that! :D

[125047569]

her ass looks nice...

[co123445666]

whos floor music is in the background?

[annafire13]

@co123445666 It's Russian Anna Pavlova :)

[Loveyou2016]

You did freaking awesome(: keep it up(:

[XpurplepeopleeaterXX]

this was a solid, clean, performance, and it was very good! (:

[benrobinson77]

i love how the floor music sets the mood for the beam routine. great coincidence

[GinnCasalbeltrame]

watch our first 2 vids :)

[OtterAquafina]

Was Nastia's dad her coach when she won the all around gold? All and all amazing! Carly in my opinion is a mix of Nastia and Shawn johnson. Its definitely difficult to compare the 3 gymnasts but her dismount was the best I've seen of the 3 on the beam. The tricks I will give to Shawn, and the artistry, goes to Nastia. Carly had a good good mix though, so in my mind they all are equally great!!!!

[Usernamenotpresent]

@OtterAquafina I Agree. She has the tumbling skills like Shawn, but the grace and flexibilty like Nastia.

[TryingToCatchYourEye]

perfection

[jdoug0234]

i know it looks kinda stupid and retarded with all the hand flicking and toe pointing, but i totally respect and admire people who can do this, looks fucking hard all those flips and jumps! id fall within the first 2 seconds hahaha

[missgigglegirl10]

nice! amazing dismount

[AshleyAndJulia]

what place did she get?

[tigerluver3000]

who ever is on floor in this video has my floor music, lol.

[ILuvTom14]

Holy Shit!

[CassidyMcComb2010]

what was her score

[koobiachiic]

I love her dismount !

[XMUXAUX]

thaat was AMAZING! She nailed Everything!! Very Impressive

[JessicaWalsh14]

Amazing routine ! x

[ajcarricato09]

wat did she gett on this routine???

[krazykat0324]

WHAT? THAT IS SOOOOOOO COOL!!!!!!!!

[silverroses011]

All I can say is amazing!! :)

[tinypeanut021]

She is really great!

[coolboardz53]

She doesn't land back on the beam, she like 'meets' the beam, gracefully and softly.  Great routine! IMO worth a ten, but judges are crazy.

[fr1zz1y]

this routine doesnt stand out for me

[leeny11]

why didn't she get a ten?!

[tigerluver3000]

I think the Chinese have amazing gracefulness in their gymnastics

Russians have amazing flexibility

Americans have amazing power!

[bbhouk1]

@tigerluver3000 and what about the romanians!?

what do they have

[jordanolympicgymnast]

exelant dismount, could find only about 1 dedution, good work,,,

[Exxdancer]

thank you and this is not a rude comment i think the chinese,russian, and american are equally good and each team is good at different things

[cheerforever961]

i was there and she was totally amazing it is awesome to see in person! i am also a gymnast but not that good!

[jillzannez]

You mean Shawn looks like Carly! Carly came first don't forget!!! The difficulty of her routines surpasses those that are being done even now, in 2009. By far one of my favorite gymnasts.

[l8rg8r13]

shes amazing!!!

[missyshelian]

that was a reallly good dismount

[gatonegroize]

wow

[cutiepiehml1213]

That was amazing!

[ostentatiousvirtue]

I could never get sick of watching this routine, its just flawkess!!

[brianthebraincell]

calmest beam routine i have ever seen - amazing.

[leeny11]

who waxed that poor girls eyebrows?!

[heatherpurchase]

she looks a little bit like shawn j

[Kevinsf]

she has better lines and fluidity. that dismount was amazing.

[mycina89]

wow!!!

[ninjachild5]

haha i love how some of her dance goes right to the beat of the persons floor music. and the person's floor music gets all intense when shes preparing for her dismount too hahaha, am i the only one who noticed that?

[Sportsgirl125]

lol I've noticed that too actually haha. And I totally agree with you =)

[jihel974]

It's Anna Pavlova's floor music...

[247HarryPotter]

@ninjachild5 OMG that is super funny!!!

[starrystar100011]

@ninjachild5 I am a gymnast and whenever floor music's playing at a meet when i am on beam, i kinda go along with the music! And thats what i did last meet and i gog a 9.300 lol

[MargaretLeighh]

@ninjachild5 Whenever I'm on beam and someone's floor music is going, without even trying I match up my dance to the beat :D

[gymnasticsluv01]

@ninjachild5 i noticed that to lolll

[IshaBeauty11]

@ninjachild5 that was the floor music?? i thought it was what she was performing to!!

[womendelssohn]

@ninjachild5 i guess she is listening to the music

[benrobinson77]

@ninjachild5 i noticed it too and i love watching this routine because of it

[Nocturnelle72]

@ninjachild5 I noticed it too. I'm pretty sure it was Anna Pavlova's music.

[jimnastix123]

NICE dismount

[mozelle12596]

not like Olga Korbut can do that

[Reebacheabp5]

first you start with basics like learning how to walk perfectly on the beam. I bet when carly started she couldn't even jump on the beam without falling! lol :D

[SUGARrushx8]

that dismount was amazing.

[faeldantas91]

triunfal dismount

xD~

[amzluvsgym]

awesome landing!

[dudefromskye]

It was great, but I didnt like the choreography between the elements..

[BeatriceBlake]

Ah thank you. Not that I could have ever learned. I don't think being really short-sighted is generally an asset in gymnastics

:-)

[tgcgymnasticsgirl]

well you can always put a pit mat under the beam a crack matt over the beam that's what we do

[BeatriceBlake]

I don't understand how you train to work beam without smashing your head open. She's very talented.

[HazelLeeHenley]

first, you use the trampoline to learn the jumps. then, you perform them on a beam 7" off the ground. then you do it on the actual beam.

[itsbeccaforreals]

also, before you try any pass on a beam you work it on a line on the floor to train yourself to stay within the four inches. If you can't do it on floor, chances are you cant do it on beam.

[idefyustars]

you actually do it on the trampoline first, then go to the floor (you do it in a line), then you go to the low/medium beams, with mats in it, and THEN you do it on the actual beam.

[beckyharp]

this was a great rountine-she did several front flip stunts-which are so hard to do on the balance beam!

[annalicia2271]

they didnt give her a 10 because she had a few balance troubles in the routine

[alllitan]

I prefer Catalina Ponor's routine, but this one is exactly as dificult as Catalina's both are perfect, I don't know why judges don't give them 10!!! -.-

[wutzit2ya5]

OMG! Look how tiny her eyebrows are

[potochip1]

you rock and so do i at gymnastics

[KorPrincezz727]

good good

[ohsaraho]

Im not a fan of carly patterson I think she sold out her gymnastics courier and i really dont like her new music. It was a nice routine and an amazing dismount, but the skills werent really that impressive especially compared to the skills we see these days.

[ElectrikkPaperClipxx]

carly's routines are always flawless

[totallytivo]

Balance beam in the all around of the Olympics has got to be the most stressful one of all, and Carly nails it. That takes incredible focus.

[saltlakecity2002]

Svetlana Khorkina should have won! But this was a good routine.

[ntass123]

Such a clean routine, i love her!!

[pipi1144]

i like carly

but too much make up

[pghk90]

i think u can judge her routine when u are standing up on the olympic podium. looked pretty good to me..

[Ministirith01]

STICKS IT! GREAT! But too robotic.....the positions are hit quikly and with confidence....but quckly and not graceful enough. Remember....this IS supposed to be artistic after all! SHEESH! I don't think there is ONE move she connects that is made gracefully and flowy.

[xxAmooxx]

She's so awesome...I do gymnastics but I'm like rubbish compared to her. The beam's my favourite routine to do...loving the noise lol. Favourite move is probably back walkover into right split. Sooo wanna be in the olympics someday =D

[Sportsgirl125]

haha yeah same here :). I actually want to go back to gymnastics, because I've had fun doing it, but then I had to quit. I had to quit because of my parents couldn't afford the lessons anymore. :(

[babbeydawl]

@Sportsgirl125 same here and i was sooo flexiblee(;

[247HarryPotter]

@Sportsgirl125 SAME HERE!!! what a qawik a dink!!

[FlippingXGymnast]

my favorite part about watching and competiting on beam is the sound it makes when you land on it.! haha

[FlippingXGymnast]

haha if russians were the best they'd be winning some. last olympics romanians got 1st and america got 2nd. and an american got 1st in all around. so yeah your so right wangdal... nott!

[briitaniixox4]

UMM wangdal.. i think you need to think before you speak. if american gymnasts suck.. then why have they been beating russia at like every competition for almost 5 years now? and how come carly patterson has the hardest dismount from beam in like. the world? yeah. think twice, speak once. =]

[monkeyluver88]

U.S.A U.S.A

They have won silver as their best but their still the best

[bluedragoni]

Russian gymnasts are better . . . nah this is pretty damn good, I liked her dismount - very impressive

[anulay]

to WANGDAL: there are good gymnasts from EVERY country...by the way, you sound fucking ethnocentric/racist/arrogant..­.(just a heads up)

[apavlova]

amazing routine! sick skills!

[daansins]

Amazing skills! Especially her dismount. But I don't like her choreography (kinda cheerleaderish). I prefer the elegant style from Holly Vise or Nastia Liukin. Too bad the Chinese ladies didn't get any medals on balance beam, because they are the best on beam with elegant lines and perfect skills.

[Sportsgirl125]

Who cares if they suck? Just leave those kind of comments to yourself. No one wants to hear/read those kind of comments anyway...

[wangdal]

american gymnasts sucks...russian gymnasts are still the best...
