@kingoftheswampful actually the floor was a bit sprung in this era.. not as much as it is now but still a little..

Im not quite sure of the answer...supposedly bluemaxof spring loaded flooring came into effect in the late 70's BUT exactly when maybe only someone 'in the know' has the answer-whenever it came in though, be sure of one thing...it was NOT sprung like it is today of course so yes its clever for full twisting DB's to be performed on these mats like Mukhina did......

controlled, precise, and perfect!

This was before they spring loaded floors, right? Wow, I can't imagine doing a double back on a flat surface, yikes.

Isn't she from Mongolia?

The vast change between these olympics and1980 is perhaps the most marked change in terms of artistry and the development of difficulty....do you agree?
her mother is tartar and her father is korean.

She was actually born in what is now Tajikistan. She's one of the only well-known Soviet gymnasts to be from that country, which I thought was interesting.
