UGH WOW. she's amazing!!!
is this named after her?? i think she was able to do in laid out but for some reason couldn't land it. i think she had to pike down though because she was about to go off the beam.
part of me thinks khorkina woudl have thrown some crazy skills if she was a bit shorter. her height was a blessing and a curse.

Amazing, I have never seen her land this in competition. She does that skill beautifully. I think the judges would give it the layout. I don't think this skill would be named after her because she never even competed it at a Worlds or Olympics. It's amazing to think someone so tall and lanky could produce such powerful gymnastics.

This is incredible. She proves that artistry and difficulty can be one in the same.

@TsubasaDreams I really loved that 04 connection. She doesn't seem as flexible which is crazy because she had the best switch ring ever in 08! I think Cheng won't have a problem with the Cheng because her Lopez looks really easy. However, the DTYs that I've seen from her seem to be a bit of a struggle which is also crazy because no one ever second-guessed if her Amanars were fully rotated. In 2010, I really saw a lack of leadership. Cheng was great like that. I wonder if she would ever coach.
WOW! when did she compete that??? and why did she stop???
