Thx for posting! She looks just like her daughter (Viktoria Komova also a gymnast), it's scary!

[dahighbar]

So that's were Komova gets that flunky jerky movement people consider artistry nowadays from

[LCAmarkymark]

@Swankdor yes she looks like her mom

[Swankdor]

gosh.. viktoria komova looks so much like her.. just like how nastia looks like her mother when they were young..

[lashenova]

She has the body of a ballerina: long limbs, small torso, small head, not typical of a gymnast.

@katakanadian I dont want to hear any talking before watching videos on here. Japanese commentators are NOTORIOUS fo talking during athletic perfomances, look at any Japanese footage of figure skating, track or whatever, they talk so much you cant even hear the music. English speaking commentators know to keep quiet when necessary

This mustve been when people started going out of bounds constantly, i dont remember seeing it happen before the mid 80s when these long tumbles became popular.....

@metsdudenj

Its a recurring theme throughout these games.... weird gangly movements and cowboyed legs and slow running

[katakanadian]

You only think it's dumb because you don't speak Japanese. All the American networks waste just as much time but because it's English you aren't as bored.

[Mytrinitysong]

Gymnastics has changed so much since then, and not all for the better. :(

Of course she's gangly - look at her body! Some landings were awkward, otherwise I like her smooth movements.
