80s gymnastics rocks!
-
maybe b/c the bars were changing so much in those years? the space in between and such? But still you had the Gurova mount, Ricna release, Shushunova release, Ma dismount, and counter-Kim salto being invented all in the 80's. Plus the amazing mounts of Dudnik and Strazeva, and amazing routines of Gnauck, Silivas, Strazeva, Ma, Fan Di, etc.

80's gymnastics was so politically motivated. boycotted olympics and judges giving out penalties for offenses that no does. USA should've won bronze here
-
...and Silivas, of course, was magnificent also.
-
Damn right Klotz had "a few slack knees" - she had probably the worst form at these games, on all events. So sloppy.
Dobre on bars , on the other hand, was perfect..
-
"she's got a new hairstyle, it's a bit curly, gives her a bit of added height"
couldn't have said it better myself. haha. Silivas was a great gymnast...but that hair...
-
@GymFloozie I think that's EXACTLY what he said. Poor Aurelia, stalked by a commentator. (See 1987 WCs to get Taylor's full take on Aurelia.

Shushunova had the same landing on the vault that Silivas had off the bars, both got a 10...They both had a slight foot slide.
-
ewww ITV commentary.. Monica Phelps was so vile.
-
Shusinova should not have gotten a ten on that single twisting Yurchenko. What's up with the judging?!
-
i like shushu, but how did she get a ten when she clearly didn't stick the landing?!
-
yes '10s flying around everywhere' by the commentator is true...
who won in the all around?

thanks no problem-more to come! i know, i am a massive 80's gym fan especially 89 worlds. but your right bars was pretty run of the mill. i think the chinese sorted that out in the 90's and Kim Gwang Suk!
