  • OK. I will post Shapo more.

  • You are welcome! I am a HUGE Shapo fan and I observed the fact that her choreo was totally different from EF (almost unheard of for a gymnast at such an event to change her choreo so much) but I also noticed her number was different-also the Olympic Rings would be all over the arena. Shapo is a young lady here with her hair pulled back like at the Games-this is probably a lead-up event into the Games. She wore her hair in pigtails when she younger and she was less developed.

  • Wow--you're right. I didn't notice that her number was different. I was so suprised to see footage of her doing this routine other than the 80' Olympic Event finals. Almost all floor routines I have seen of Shapo are to "Toreador" from Carmen. I think I have only seen two done to this song. Wonder what competition this was from? Thanks again. Shaposhnikova is my all time favorite and I love seeing any footage of her.

  • Yes. This was prior to her injury.

  • Is that Mukhina sitting next to Shap at the very end, right before the cut to Davidova (you see her for a second when she leans forward)?

  • At 1:28 that is her coach, the wonderful Vladislav Rastorotsky, who also coached Ludmilia Tourischeva, Natalia Yurchenko and Albina Shishova to name a few:)

  • she is my gymnastics coach!!!

  • Sorry, 1980.

  • I believe this was the 1979 Moscow Test Event, a competition that is held in the same arena that the Olympics is to be held in. So, in this case, Moscow. I'm not sure though.

    Either way, Natalia performed a brilliant exercise that probably should have scored higher than it got.

  • but its still moscow, right?
