  • My God, on EVERY single video there is a comparison about Shawn and Nastia... It's just ridiculous! Both are increadible, strong and clean gymnastics.

    None of them deserve to be compared. It's unfair and unprofessional!

  • It would be physically impossible for Nastia to do Shawn's vault, just like it would be physically impossible for Shawn to do Nastia's uneven bars routine.

    Nastia would break herself trying to do Shawn's power tumbling on floor, but there's no way in hell Shawn could do Nastia's dance/jump bonus combos. Each would look totally ridiculous trying to do the other's choreography.

    You can't compare them. It's apples and oranges.

  • Wow! She's incredible!

  • @katie66bug Thats true but he was just stating what the judges will be looking for and every little thing counts. like even if your bra strap is showing...Yah not to cause an argument or anythng. just saying judges are extreamly picky.

  • The best!!!!!!!!

  • She has muscles on her muscles! That's incredible x

  • Did she win gold??? because i watched each section bars, beam, and floor, and she was flawess...

  • Isnt Shawn and Nastia on the same team ?

  • @ASPaez1965 well mostly right...I agree with 90 percent of it...smaller weaker gymnast are throwing up the amanar vault than Nastia...and Memmel who is similar to Shawn could never do an Amanar so I wouldn't say its impossible. But no need to compare them like you said.

  • I have never seen anyone get a 16.000 like shawn did. i knew it was possible but shawn can just give that umph and power on that beam! (:

  • I saw this video 39 times hahaha she is just amazing...i love it!

  • would this be an example of a routine where her d score is only 6.9 because her leg isnt at a horizontal the entire time shes performing her full spin?
