@foofoobear66 OOps, duhh. I left out a word....They had to SET the bars...
-
@9BallQueen Yes they were....Each individual gymnast had to the bars so that she could cast easily into the low bar while gripping the top.

Oh, wow...Awesome video!!!!....I actually believe the bars routines were more difficult in the 70" because of the way the bars were set for each gymnast. Stalters, hip circles and presses were the only way to get up into a handstand on the high bar. Compared to Giants which I learned very easily (in one day) when training for the new bar settings. Wow, I wish I knew someone to talk "Old School" gymnastics with!!!

@rockkitt88 Hiya. Nadia got me into gymnastics. Was in it for 6 years. It was in the late 70's. In BARS each gymnast had to take time to set the bars to fit their bodies. Cast into the low bar while gripping the top. Yes, some of those things were hard, but surprisingly did not hurt (much,LOL) Eagles for example, looked cool cuz gravity and centrifugal force would keep you spinning on the bottom bar with no hands so that you can pop off and grab the top bar. Very scary when you first learn it.
