  • very nice. excessive arm movements though

  • And she still doesnt smile

  • her legs are a mile long! im so jealous!

  • her dismount was beautiful and i love how she keeps moving swiftly

  • perfect!

  • 6 people decided to try Nastia's beam routine full out, got up on the beam, shat a brick, the brick snapped the beam in half, they fell off and got paralyzed from the neck down!

  • amo a esa mujer XD

  • You're amazing!

  • At 1:15 what is that skill called i cant hear him properly when he says it ?!????

  • @NYXrox89 its called an onodi

  • @gymnance13 OMG thank you so much i could never find it :D

  • Nastia Liukin And Shawn Johnson Are My IDOLS !

  • Comment removed

  • You can't compare Shawn with Nastia because they are both very different in style and body type. Nastia is all about elegance and neat artistic moves you can see just by the way she does the 3 skills in a row at 0:40..amazing. Shawn shows everything in a different way, fast/solid type of moves not in an artistic way. Also Nastia has the perfect body for Gymnastics she is feminine and also strong - just like the Eastern European women in the 80's and 90's.. Shawn is ... beefy !

  • This is perfection please. New gymnasts have only to learn from Nastia, that's it.

  • she's amazing.

  • Oh! I love her... from Brazil

  • Don't compare make it or break it gymnasts to real gymnasts, it's just not right.

  • @redhead288 but... Peyson's fat:o

  • i really dont think it as a name

  • That was an amazing routine, I love her original move,the way she landed with no fault on one foot was phenominal. Nastia is an amazing Gymnast

  • The weird thing is that she really literally did "take that put it in a bottle and send that it Beijing" in the all around :)

  • @dannyradar Literally? Really? Look up the meaning of literally and get back to me.

  • her dismount was perfect!!!

  • @MrSwasome ...except for the sloppily crossed feet

  • love this, what is the name of the skill after 1:06 its like a back handspring but u get to the other side...amazing

  • @BNaVaRo after 1:16 sorry

    

  • @BNaVaRo It's called an Onodi. 

  • Wow! 9.800 execution? That is amazing. You very rarely see that.

  • @abbythegymnast98 = it is a good score and a great routine, but U.S. judges are VERY generous with their B-scores. I doubt we'll see the day when, at an international competition, we see a B-score above 9.6. Still, exceptional routine from Nastia.

  • @ericmaine Well it's a good thing that this was in Canada sooo.... And it doesn't have anything to do with American vs another country it has to do with the level of competition like Olympics/Worlds vs Pacific Rim. American judges can be tougher because they know what they're looking for because we have a gymnastics rich country.

  • it lookes like she doesnt have any bones .. because shes so flexible :D awsome :')

  • It was a great routine, it's true, but the NBC commentators shouldn't be so sure it woudl get a ten. I mean, I saw two (tiny, it's true) errors - she crossed her legs on her dismount and also that ring jump is quite questionable - she leaned her head back but didn't quite arch her spine. Well, it's still an almost-perfect routine, and that's remarkable.

  • 10!!!!!!!!!

  • she nailed that dismount

  • lllllloooooooovvvvvvvveeeeee iiiiiiiiiiit perfect posishon and awesome back hand spring flip

  • she just amzing

  • she did take that in a bottle... and bring it to the olympic all around :) [except maybe her liukin was better here....]

  • Flawless! Absolutely amazing! Nastia is the shit!!!

  • Wowwww :o this was incredible!

  • shes amazing but she dosnt look very friendly ....not 1 smile at the end !!!

  • @deegeeJan she never smiles while she competes she is very serious but I have only heard good things about her when people meet her.

  • @catfan06 fair enough , =]

  • WOW!!! You guys got this from the TV...

    I LOVE NASTIA!!!

  • she makes it look so easy!

  • 1:16 how is this skill called? I can't understand what he's saying.

  • @MissQuentinCompson i think he said anodi not sure though

  • @MissQuentinCompson It's called th Onodi. Named after the first gymnasts to complete it in a major world competition. and Nastia does is the most beautifully in the world!

  • @Trackman72689 thank you so much! that's like one of my favorite gymnastics figure and since I've never done gymnastics I don't really know names of the figures

  • @Trackman72689 It's actually named after the first gymnast to compete it in a major world competition AND submit the correct paperwork. It was first performed in a major world competition by Olga Mostepanova at the 1983 World Championships.

  • I love the little nod thing she does in the beginning of her routine.

  • I love her "Liukin" skill, but in comparison to Johnson's this routine quite bores me!

  • nastia is BAD ASS! =P

  • Wow. She is truly amazing. The fluidity and simultaneous precision her body displays is..breathtaking. It's like watching poetry. 

  • i could see the score at the end properly, what did she get?

  • you are wonderful no better!

  • Not only was this a great routine but the flexibility and the Giraff esk legs really sets her apart from the gymnasts competing against her. The only other person who I think is better on beam is Shawn Johnson, but by a nail!

  • Uhm, yeah, i cant even jump on that thing without falling. Shes amazing!

  • she reminds me of lauren from make it or break it

  • @Pallydog why lauren's a bitch lol

  • @Pallydog Nuuuuu.

  • @Pallydog Really? She reminds me more of Peyson.

  • She's such an amazing gymnast I absoluley love her and I will follow her steps and her love of gymnastics!

  • I just watched an old video of Li Li on beam and it's really astounding how the average height and size of gymnasts has changed over the past 20-30 years.

  • Ik im commenting let, But i just wanted to state my opinion of Shawn/Nastia.

    I've always liked watching Shawn on floor, mainly because she really shows her passion and power and has fun. I really think floor is her golden moment. Nastia I really like her bar routines. Her lines are endless, and her grace and strength show. Bars give her the chance to show everyone she has the strength too. I like how much passion Shawn shows. Nastia is an amazing gymnast, but she needs to show her passion

  • i loved it i wish i could be like u 1 day

  • Maybe in Bars Nadia Comaneci Rocks Everyone ass, but in beam, Who is Nadia Comanecci? Nastia kill her

  • The judges were right, .1 off on leg separation on the landing of the dismount and .1 for the crossed legs during the dismount. An exceptional routine.

  • tim daggett kinda sounds like a chipmunk lol

  • her legs r so long and beautiful she is my absolute favourite gymnast!

  • Nastia is better than Shawn in many ways. However, Shawn is better than Nastia in many ways as well. I perfer Nastia becasue I love her classical style. But I also love Shawn's raw power. Still international judges and coaches respect Nastia's style of gymnastics because it's so ballet like!

  • @gymnut83 shawn has more power and is a better tumbler nastia is more ballet like and smoother than shawn

  • i think shawn is way better. she smiles acts way more excited to be there and is the cleanest gymnast ive ever seen!

  • you might wanna use past tense, because shes no longer a gymnast. unless she can kick her tanning addiction, lose 20 pounds and ditch hollywood. but even if she decided to, theres no way she could come back after 2 years of not training. gymnastics isnt a part time sport sorry.

  • @comanecisalto1 please disregard my previous comments. i apologize. i thought it was nastia you were talking about. then when i read your comment i realized it was shawn you were talking about. in that case, your absolutely right.

  • shes better than shawn johnson

  • she is amazing

    i wish i was that good

  • the woman commentor... a lil obsessed LOL?

  • wwow she is really amazing im speechless wow best ive seen in a long time!

  • PERFECT

  • one of the best routines ive seen in a long time! i always thought her pause after the front aerial is always too long, sometimes im surprised she gets credit for the connection. same with her switch leg ring leap, i hope she does not get the same credit for that as Anna Pavlova

  • I hope not too cos Anna's foot always literally touched her head, Nastias is a foot off !!

  • i think that they deducted on a cross of the legs onn the dismount and maybe a slightly bent leg on the front ariel step out. if you pause at 0:39 , you can see a bent leg. she also had the smallest balance check when she was doing her dance at 1:32. i dont know about anything else but i dont think that balance check was counted.

  • wow, best beam routine ever by Nast!

  • she has been so great me being a gymnast her and shawn has helped me with my dismounts

  • great!!

    i absolutely love her! she's the best XD

  • 1:02 - 1:03 what is that jump called?

  • sheep jump

  • @zhujp98 its called a sheep jump or a ring jump

  • well, u know a lot about this~~

  • What score did she get on this?

  • 16.4

  • she is the best gymmnast evr!!!

  • holy shit she stuck it?!

  • uh-may-zeeng.

  • She is a fantastic gymnast

  • i talked to nastia liukin cuz my sister vanessa zamarripa she called me really she did

  • nastia liukin is a really good gymnast -the best in the last olympic games

  • beautifull final landing

  • Absolutely one of the most beautiful beam sets I've ever seen.

  • they cant deduct for her feet being apart like that. dont her feet have to be at least shoulder width to deduct?

  • no. look it up in the code of points. on the dismount, if the legs are separated, then it's .1 off. she also did a twist as part of her dismount, and it's .1 off for legs crossed during elements with twist.

  • she got .1 foff for crossed legs on the dismount and another .1 off for feet being separated when she landed, but other than that, this beam routine was phenomenal!!!

  • Son mouvement est parfait

  • why did she do triple twist at the dismount on beam anymore??

  • the triple could be a little inconsistant for her so the 2.5 with a stick would be better for her rather than maybe getting the triple around without a big step...

  • @londongymgurl ohh.....

  • @londongymgurl plus, she still gets the D+ dismount bonus

  • @londongymgurl wasnt this when she had an ankle injury too or like right after

  • @hoopsnyoyo15 no, the injury occured right before the 2006 World championships and she had trouble with it healing properly. Even during the 2007 Worlds she had trouble with it.

  • because it was really ugly most of the time!!

  • @danielcnsilva she doesnt do a triple full dismount anyymore for what londongymgurl said and that she hit a huge growth spurt which making that many twists a lot harder

  • @danielcnsilva Injury. That's why she never lands backwards except for the front 1.5 on floor.

  • she is the SHIT! shes so goood ... she makes gymnastics looks so easy!

  • Wow. Just... wow.

  • haha nastia is amazing!! i can do most of that stuff on beam but not as graceful or perfect as her!!

  • she makes it seem like the beam is like, 3 feet thick, when its actually REALLY thin,

    wow she's amazing!!

  • what is the name of the move she does its called an anonee or something ? how do you spell it ?

  • onodi

  • im looking for some at gymnation. i want a purple one.

  • im going to start gymnastics in like a week or so!!! im really exited but i cant find a leotard anywhere so that really stinks

  • i usually get mine from GK gymnastics wear...

  • @londongymgurl

    ya same, and if you cant get leotards, our gym has a leo specifically for our gym colours, and if we dont like that then every term we have a gk sale

  • they usually sell them at the gymnastics place

  • @coolzioshoo89 u can also proabbly buy one from yur gym if not you can order one online

  • wow Nastia is RELLY good. i REALLY want to do gymnastics so im watching the '08 olimpic videos of her. ya im on the swim team right now but i want to quit and do gymnastics cuz i think that i might be good at it. but maybe not cuz im 5 foot 4inches

  • dont worry im 5'6 and i am ok at gymnastics...and the great Khorkina was 5'5 and she was amazing!

  • That was a phenomenal performance but its sad to say her beam routine just doesn't have the wow factor that Shawn has.

  • no she still has a wow factor with her routine but not the same wow as shawns...

  • What I mean is this routine is very slow moving, Shawns is very fast

  • oh ok! thanks for clarifying! i thought you ment as in big skills versus the rhythm of the rountine :D

  • i must agree with you the power Shawn has, nastia doesn't, but the grace, the beauty, the lines that Nastia bring to the sport is something Shawn, and MANY other gymnasts are lacking and that is why Nastia is a very hard hitter. She can also hit huge skills, while maintaining that beauty.

  • that was the best beam routine i have ever seen!

  • This was the best beam routine ever.

  • Nastia is the toughest gymrat since Mary Lou. And then some. Nastia should be a comic book character. She's not the most talented. She's just the best

  • she didnt fall!!! HAHAH LISA!

  • who is lisa?

  • This was the best beam performance Nastia ever performed. This was spectacular!

  • Has the front aerial with the scale landing been called hers?

  • no it is not called the liukin. but the FIG does recognize that she does it in the piked position therefore making it different from other gymnasts.

  • ok thx can you tell me when they do call hers

  • well looking at the new code its not there but if they ever do (i really dont think they will) i will surely let you know!

  • ok thx.

  • they have a new scoring system now they arent out of ten

  • eh...

  • I couldn't agree more Shawn's routine is beyond incredible.

  • This has to be the most badass beam routine I have ever seen.

  • @TheAviator8289 By badass I assume you mean cookie-cutter, codewhored, and boring :/

  • @Gr33nkiwi what do you mean by codewhored? everyone keeps on saying it - but what does it mean?? haha thanks!

  • @THEpozzle

    It means she has a very cookie cutter routine that rapes certain aspects of the code. WOGA is famous for being cookie-cutter codewhores.

    Basically it just means the routine is boring and gets difficulty value from exploiting certain connection values/skills instead of utilizing harder, riskier skills.

    Don't get me wrong, the skills are hard, but they're less risky and they're very unoriginal.

  • nastia should get that skill named after her because it is in a pike... i wish i could do that on beam...

    I LOVE YOU NASTIA!!!

  • Ya Nastia is amazing

  • yes but nistor does it in the tuck position and nastia does it more piked

  • yes i know she does not do it like she said but in theory thats the difference

  • The FIG called her skill a front pike. Different to Nistor and co who do it in tuck. None of these skills are remaining in the COP beyond 2008 but Nastia's version was recognised as being different by the FIG. She clearly does show a pike position with her lead leg.

  • nice!

  • omg lol

  • 9.8 execution. WOW!

  • omg nastia is like the best idk who i like more nastia or shawn!!!!!

    go nastia and shawn <3 ya much!

  • With a beam routine like that, I deff think she can medal in BB EF in Beijing.

  • Soooo amazing. It's like her feet are magnets.

  • Nastia is really good-but i agree with londongymgurl-there are alot of people that could beat her (well not that many-but i'd say a few)good luck Britain!

  • I'm not sure about that, maybe if Nastia messed up they could beat her. She's either number 1 or 2 in the world for women's gymnastics, so i would have to disagree.

  • wait, what do you mean by that lzst part?
