Alina Kabaeva: The Retired Star of Gymnastics

Alina Kabaeva is an unforgettable gymnast; her routines are always original and joyful. She wasn't only a gymnast, she is a star!! She appared in the movie "red shadow", there is a song dedicated to her, she's the favourite of most part of public, and now she's at the Kremlin. Her career in the gymnast was shining, and we hope that it will be continue. Thanks for all the emotions that you had give us... ^^

hey u are supposed to do gymnastic starting from 4 or 5 - that's how its done in russia...older - u are not flexible enough and its about training and learning, 12 - is too old

I started RG at maybe 8 years old, but I improved a lot when I was 12... Now I can touch my thigh with my head, but when I was 11 I wasn't able to touch even my foot with my head... I've become flexible by training... :) Sure you can't go to the Olympics if you begin late, but you can still improve a lot... :) RG would be an entertainment too, not only a competitive sport... :)

i love alina no matter what any one says about her. she is the most amazing gymnast even in 2004 and onwards. she always had a smille and great presence on the mat. i hate the way people dis her so much. she always has clean routines and every body makes mistake. every single gymnast- you try all that pressure and doing a perfect routine. being a 24 gymnast must be hard on her so of course some of her routines won't be perfect but no one is! ALINA IS the greatest!

nice video by the way.

Her flexibility is the best!! :D

[missmiga1]

She is sooo flexible!!! Flexy.... but she she has done soo good don't say bad stuff!

[missmiga1]

@Shadow0309 I think she is great! but I love Anna Bessonova!!! They under estemated her!!! ;(

[Shadow0309]

@Shadow0309 my apologies. she was good up until 2001. after that she was always overscored.

[Shadow0309]

@issarveta bullshit. Anna Bessonova was a million times better and was always underscored. Kabaeva was the sloppy one who made silly mistakes all the time, and her apparatus handling was definitely not on the world level. Besides, i'm sure everyone got tired of Kabaeva's same facial expression in every routine. Her extreme back flexibility was the only good thing

[issarveta]

С Алиной Кабаевой может стравнится только BruceLee.........такие люди рождаются один раз в 100 лет с таким талантом и внутринним потенциалом.........например ,,,высоко выкинуть вверх мяч и зафиксировать его ...за спиной......этот элемент очень тяжёлый это удается далеко не каждой гимнастке....ты умница, красавится так держать и дальше!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! у тебя в переди ещё много ПОБЕД !!!!!!!
