Gymnastics maybe harder now but I wouldn't have tried a double full on none spring floor if fact it's alot easier now do to a double full due to the spring floor padding on the beam There was NO!! padding on the beam back then and NO!!! thick landing mats back then either.

@kevin123verstappen where did you get these clips? they're all fantastic quality with viewpoints i've never seen before. and is that olga korbut on the beam at 2:14 to 2:16? i recognize the soviet leo but i don't remember olga doing back-handspring to korbut in 76

@marinaijaume001 Elena Mukhina is not there. She never participated in Olympics. She was supposed to on the Moscow 80s games, but got paralyzed 2 weeks before the games. So she was never at any Olympic games.

maybe gymnastics is so much harder now, but don't forget that now, the floor is really dynamic (it wasn't !!!) only since 1984; uneven bars have really changed,... I'm sure it was harder than now with our equipements... I wouldn't try a full on a hard ground :-s or shooting the bars with my stomach ^^ on thin carpets :-O
