New Bar Skill

[Nitropanda16]

I mean you were all over the place, but that was sweet

[MrChingchongpotato]

my dad is a judge and he said that it would be 9 tenths off

[TheCookieMonster33]

who cares bout form or if someone else has done it b4 shes prob only like 13 and can do kick ass releases how many of u who left a negative comment can do uven a giant? or know what a giant is

[wyocanchaser]

ok I just want to clear something up here for all you people who don't understand what just happened up there. Yes the beginning of the skill is not new. Its been done by ALOT of people. However, the grip she catches in is different. Look up Svetlana Khorkina on bars and watch her routine. You will see the catch is different!

[endlerb]

That was really good but you need to keep you legs straight and more together.

[SuperGymnast2010]

great skill:) straighten your legs tho

[jmgug92]

if u miss ur hands u pretty much get f'ed up

[TheBlehh010]

I'm pretty sure that's already been done. still pretty cool though

[Keith77155]

Great skill but hun if you would clean the form up and straigten you knees and point your toes I think you would have a eaiser of a time making that element. I alway tell me gymnast when I coach that its eaiser to do them with great form. for example when your doing a full twist and I know from my own self when I was a gymnast if your doing a full twist if you have bent legs you will not rotate as fast as you would if your legs were straight cause then your able to use your hip for rotating.

[hidemysocks]

i am really starting to think that the person who uploads the videos for saltocafe is 8 years old because they put a lot of not so new "new skills" up here. even if this was in 2008 that skill was not new

[abbythegymnast98]

@hidemysocks yes that skill has been invented but she's the only one that I have seen add an extra half twist to it. You normally catch the bar in front but she caught it from the back. So therefore that makes it pretty much a new skill.

[MissKayla142]

was this your first time doing this skill?its great!all u have to do is fix your form and its perfect!don't listen to these people saying you suck,they probably can't even do a pushup.keep it up!!

[europegymfan123]

its a khorkina half

[Punk5Rock]

maybe you should learn to perfect the handstand then free straddle 1/2 with pointed toes and straight legs then add the 1/2 turn grip. would look much nicer in the end and you wouldnt fall into bad habits.

[wackyjackie101]

the slowmo is hella funny

[wackyjackie101]

ew that was so ugly.

[amigozz4l]

@wackyjackie101 i'm sure you can do better

[stickit1998]

That's good it's like a Jeager/Takchev full! Nice job but the form isn't too great. It's hard when you're working on getting a new skill. Great job though!

[tonijean23]

okay well i think it would be a really sick skill but its really sloppy and youll get more off on it then you will get for it. if you fix your form like straight legs and pointed toes itlll look a lot better i would like to see if you have improved.

[gymnasticsaga]

ur good just work on ur form!

[sunooii]

ITS A FROG!

[dallasmac]

that looks ugly..straighten your legs and point your toes

[13shifter]

great skill i dont think i have seen anyone actually do it in competition. it looks really cool and i hope it gets named after you.

[magucci83]

awesome skill.  can't wait to see it with good form

[gymnasticsstar12345]

knees and feet jeez.

[FABHEL]

Kung Fu Fighting !! ... lol

[ASPaez1965]

That was great. Don't let people tell that was bad.

[kareldegrote1224]

looks weird lol

[Icy6222]

thats not new but good job

[danicabrooke]

I think she meant the skill was new to her...

[MsJennettefan1]

looks sloppy on the part when she twist

[xxmisstrouble4evaxx]

it was a cool trick but i didnt look very neat

[lalalovebird]

umm it looks like you slipped and caught yourself i mean the legs look really sloppy and all over the place

[chiquitabanana776]

sorry but im sure you can't do that so stop being soo rude

[lalalovebird]

wasn't trying to be i think if it keeps being worked on and cleaned up a bit it would look awesome

[481095ymg2]

@lalalovebird It's not a slip, it's a controlled release that's incredibly difficult. The supposed "queen" of the uneven bars invented this release WITHOUT the 1/2 turn; it's already considered a high level skill without the 1/2 turn, so before you start criticizing someone about "slipping" over a bar, think about the level of difficulty. Yes, this gymnast has some obvious form errors, but I'm sure she has worked on this. Another thing to realize is that she may be playing down the form...

[481095ymg2]

@lalalovebird to achieve the skill. Appreciate the skill, this gymnast has obviously tried very hard.

[ninjachild5]

she barely even has that giant. So why would she try to do that skill? and just catching in a different grip isn't really creating a new skill. its just jazzing it up.

[LHSStuntman]

All these bitches are like "work on form" and yea that's a good idea, but don't stop pushing yourself to do things previously unattainable. Keep drilling new shit too.

[trampolinedance]

uhm, your not ready for this skill clearly if you can't even get a giant around without horribly bending legs.. sorry

[hardstylegymnast]

pleas people..... SHUT THE FUCK UP!

i loved it=)

[kkok17]

yeah. too bad your form is horrible and it wouldn't matter that the skill is great, you would get deducted soooooooooo much and even the form on your giant!!!

[MySportsFanatic]

cool skill. it'll look great once you perfect the form.

[gymshiv]

pretty shit, tbh. i dont think you can invent new bar skills before you've even learnt to do a proper giant, it's like learning to jump before you can stand.

[bcfisallmine661]

wow u looked dumb when u hopped over..

[angie4299]

omg ur form was bad

[gymcrazy720]

work on your form please!

[BrkGymnas]

FORM! please

[CaspitaJiotto]

marry me!!!!!!

[createwithkathy]

these people have the worst form ever. even if a markelov 1/2 is the awesomest release ever

[greenkiwi689]

I hate these "New bar skills." And they're just a release move caught in the opposite grip. Don't get me wrong, this is cool but I want to see someone invent a completely new release move.

[missjpace]

Hahaha, couldn't have said it better myself. Catching the bar in the opposite grip = innovation...not invention.

[lucascampelovianna]

It would be coll if she catches the bar after she twists.

[brooke123456788]

get better form and you'd be greatt.

[gymnast4life517]

its messy with bad form but if she was a lot tighter and stronger she could probably do it beautifully :D

[gymnastgrl4956]

no offense

but that was ugly

[angie4299]

i agree

[thekidintheback]

it's cool but she catches it in a dead hang, what she going to do out of it?

[SilivasGold]

Amazing release skill, but terrible form.

[conidi2]

a bit loose but cool

[sportslvr97]

keep ur legs straight and tight

[ben1996123]

kinda crappy

[Lyssenk0]

So it's a Markelov/Khorkina caught in mixed grip and then with a half turn. Cool.

[txcheer101]

hah ew

[Sammidylan]

u should perfect it and doing it in a world championships or olympics and get it named after u

[mormjew2]

that was bad... UGLY

[alexzjay]

AWFUL.

[trevorheald]

Is is a Shushanova caught in mixed grip? Or a Shushanova with a half?

[dunk247]

Its a Markelov with an added half OR a full twisting Markelov (as the user dd8yf said below)

[trampolinedance]

you should probably keep your legs tighter

but good job! :)

[LadyGaGaFan01]

kool

[dd8yf]

It's a full-twisting Markelov with a lot of deductions, if it gets credit for the full (since the gymnast's body doesn't finish the twist before catching). (Disclaimer: I'm a national men's judge, not a women's judge.)

[fwcoxgymnast]

That was ugly.

[czdybal]

ugly

[P3AC3P3ARL]

please i can do way more than a cartwheels ive been doning then since i was 3 so how would you be able to say i dont know how to do a cartwheel

[EVAofRED]

I fell on my face a few times doing something like this!

Keep practising and work on the legs! Kudos!

[P3AC3P3ARL]

thats not new and you suck

[saltocafe]

for somebody that can't do a cartwheel your harsh.

[ACSsmile]

@P3AC3P3ARL its mite not be new to u, but it may b new 2 her

[SuperRebecca1998]

@P3AC3P3ARL at least she can do it anyway

[pkfreestylers]

legs are abit sketchy but the move is pretty cool

[myfirstimpression]

Lol wtf?

[musttangal]

legs girl :] haha.

straighten them :]

keep practicing.

[Karatefreako]

I love ur vids so much they r all so beast!

[PlayingPanda]

ive seen this before not new

[expelliarmus1234]

Markelov to cross-arm catch?

i'm also thinking of it though i'm not a gymnast..:)

[Gymnasticspenguin96]

Sweet that was awesome! i haven't invented any gymnastics moves...unless strange ways of falling count lol

[xXpaulkevinjonasXx]

yeah me too. at a meet i fell off beam and like twisted down. my team said it looked cool tho. haha

[Gymnasticspenguin96]

yeah i was on the beam and i was trying to do the splits and i fell off sideways and like turned upside down it was kind of funny

[xXpaulkevinjonasXx]

haha one time i stradled by walking on beam. lol.

[Gymnasticspenguin96]

oh haha I did that once

[chaosengel83]

very cool :)

[Gymnasticsvideorater]

Cool move, but keep nice technique.

Technique: 2.5/5

Skills: 5/5

Description 5/5

Video Clarity 4.5/5

Overall Impression 4.5/5

Total 21.5/25 Great!

[squall274]

looks like she's trying to incorperate a cheerleading basket move into a bar routine, clever very clever

[Gymnastumbler]

obviously she knows her form is sloppy. She was probably just learning the skill. It's a sweet skill and I'm sure once it's cleaned up it's gonna look really nice

[beijingtraining2008]

is it really condisidered a real skill. wats the name them i wanna know but its a really coool skill.

[xogymhottie10]

this skills kinda ugly...no offense.

maybe it would look better if her form was nicer?

[IMaONEaBE]

Wow her form is HIDEOUS! Looks like a freakin frog swinging bars.

[lemonrecordj]

its good but ur legs and and knees needd to be straight and tight and ur toes need 2 b pointed

[huddles22]

you need to keep your legs tongether and straiten them and point your toes when ur doing your giants and going up.! but it was veryy good.

[jogymnastics]

thats sweet... its like a full twisting hect

[Mergoose]

weird.

[mrmogensen]

holy shit it's a spiderman move!

[possefever]

Ooo- see I hate the regular version of this move, but I like it this way. Good idea. =D

[SkateForLife6136]

real sloppy but nice

[funascanb]

um straigten legs and keep practicing and that skill would be tight!

[girlxgirlxgirlxgirl3]

wow straighten your legs and point the toes on the front giant. and you down there you are right eddie head. her form sucks and thats going to lose her way more points then the difficulty. i dont think she should put it in the routine becuase she will just lose way too many points on form even though it looks cool. judges look for form not difficulty.

[perdun94]

??????????????????????????????­??????????????????

[eddiehead]

everyones "trashing" her form because the form is disgusting - difficulty should always come after form and consistency - doesn't matter how difficult something is, if it looks shit it's gonna lose you more marks than your gonna gain on tariff

[BoxerMuscleMilk]

it's tru it's true, and most judges are assholes anyway...

[Selecious]

in the women's code that release skill is called the Khorkina. She's the only one who has good form on it. watch videos of her routines and then watch anyone else attempt it, and khorkina's the only one who makesit look like a walk in the park.

[teecrew]

the khorkina catches in over-grip, this catches in mix

[backflipboy27]

wrong, there are plenty of girls who can do it with good form....beth tweddle, terin humphrey, courtney mccool, and more

[Selecious]

k

maybe I'm not clarifying what I mean, Beth I'll give to you (and she gets good height) but terin and courtney perform that skill quite sloppy, with legs all over the place. even though toes pointed and body tension is accurate, it looks hidious. beth and khorkina are the only ones who give the skill any grace.

[electriczero22]

whts with everyone trashing her form? thats got to be extremely hard to do especially on a girls bar i bet the last thing shes thinkin about is form

[nickyszz]

Pause At 0.21 shes high as!

[tatulover2120]

thats sick nasty yo!just keep ur legs straighter

[ZzPlaya4life12zZ]

its pretty cool just work on your form

[Alikat35603]

that is the ugliest thing i have ever seen. work on your form!!!!

[JohnTraceur]

gotta agree with you there

[gymbuddies1990]

she has the worst form ever

[billybobbabes]

work on your form.

[tcornellvln]

It looks like a cool skill but needs to be done better to actually "look" like a cool skill. . . or at least do better front giants into it. but otherwise very creative.

[dfl167]

China had that release move at Bejing... it's good, but it's not new.

[tcornellvln]

no, you're thinking of the jager with a half which went right into another jager. This is a veronin with a 1/2. not hard to see why you're mistaken though

[wutzit2ya5]

actually, the one on this video is a little different

[tamsiejonni1234]

haha, good skill (Y)

but it really needs perfecting,

its a really good idea and i imagine it will look very good wen performed properly. =] =]

[hahah44567]

lol nice but i think thats already a skill and wow u hav bad form!!!!!

[Raptole]

GOOD! Thank you!

[JDCiolfi]

thats just ugly in so many ways... sorry

[kittylishus45]

keep it coming, keep it coming. so far so good

[rikey23]

then tape it when it's perfect THEN put it on youtube. lol duh

[tomelliott9]

looks hard, im no expert, iv never even been near one of those bars, i dont even know why im watchig this video but it looked a little clumsy to me :S very good tho

[cheersk102]

she didnt invent that, but its really good, just try to keep your legs straight

[awarlolbtwbrb]

that was really good

[zpal24]

wow, best form I've ever seen

[nitzanFB]

ooooooooommmmmmggggg

cooooooooooll

[[=

[webkinz4life123]

wow seirously

[SaraBear180]

wow. is this serious?

[puredancer1219]

dont listen to them!! they are being rude!!its probably her first time doing it no one does it perfect the first time!!you probably cant do that prefect!! i say great job!!keep it up!

[ferrarike1]

wth ?.

on what its liking , on NOTHING !

its new yes .

when you do something , DO IT RIGHT !!!

[danfearn]

good but not very neet

[L3prechaun7]

....thats good...Now...After u learned it u can get down to ur legs....make sure they are straight at all times....U might of just learned this though and dinit have enough time to improve...

[jimbuby]

i think that was a new one (i think)that was a revers release

[gymnast7225]

that was already invented

[conversegymnast]

well yeah we know that! she means its a new bar skill she just learned!

[gollymolly123]

no, read the despcription again, she claims she INVENTS a new bar skill!

[lambie94]

oh yeah sorry didnt read that.

[teecrew]

i don't think i've ever seen anyone catch it in mix, though

[Tids101]

Looks scrappy

[ZzPlaya4life12zZ]

yea seriously keep ur legs straight needs lots of inprovement

[rockEchick]

wth?

[gymchick227]

dat sucked. fix ur form and that didn't even look like a skill just a fall where u caught urself

[IGgymnast10]

shut up.....u are totally wrong

[gymnast4ever]

I can't do that, but still, she needs to straighten her legs and point those toes, it's completely distracting from how awesome the skill really is! I couldn't really pay attention to the difficulty of that skill when it was so completely messy.

Still an awesome skill though, great work. =D

[tash1gym]

ahahahaha i agree

[prettyfancyjj]

wow, she messed up big time!!!!! She got off the bar and could not find it again

[hahaha2396]

u really need to fix ure form and point ure toes

[xnaidx]

god if that was me id cringe seeing that in slow mo, you look like a dead spider

[crazy4gymnastics4224]

haha, dead spider.

[SeperatePiece]

how did she do that trick. /shonti

[heffersmuah]

CLEAN UP THE FORM AND MAYBE Y0U C0ULD GET S0MEWHERE WiTH iT

[chinagurl673]

i thhink she should Fix her form. it is just ugly has ever. i mean i like how she does the skill but her legs are apart and her head is stinking out. ugh. i hate seeing all that stuff. BUT GOOD JOB!!

[dAnThEmAn178987]

clean up but nice full twisting khorkina! i am doing a gienger to a deltchev ... u rock!

[pimpinwhitegirlsx3]

that's not new.

i've seen it before.

[Brittankie]

she meant that's a new skill to her.(she hasnt done it before)

[chefljo97]

maybe you should practice making it look a little neater before doing that !!!!

[lauraITT]

Could be good with practice !

[tweakedfart]

yes terrible form, bent legs, and just looks ugly. DO NOT use that in a routine or u will get ownd

[noskooolp]

nice 360

[iwatchyutube]

your legs are a little bent

well what am i talking about

i cant do it :)

[alisonchristina1]

no i diddnt

[Spikeryder3213]

you all just bash her because you wish you could do it yourself! *not that i can*

[Stella1love]

learn your giants before U learn that piece of s$@t!!

[XsportsbabeX]

wow she had horrible form yuck but ok

[gymnastgirl1232]

[MonicaWasHeree]

[lilkimm1627]
