  • shes performed that vault poorer than here and gotten a higher score, proving the score was too low and the judges robbed her. but in the end, everyone knows she was the best gymnast at these games, she doesnt need a medal to prove that.

  • @Ricoblack2012 Well thank you:)

  • @481095ymg2 ugh. you are being so nice about it!!!

  • @comanecisalto1 I AGREE

  • *wikipedia*

    Although She landed without taking a step, her posture was leaning forward, and hence the step she took to present to the judges was necessary to keep her from falling forward, in which case the vault wouldn't be considered a stick because a stick requires a stable vertical body posture. This was probably the controversy the judges took so long to decide over the phone. Other vaults in the same competition featured similar leaning body postures and were not scored as stuck landings.

  • To the ignorant people bitching about this, think that if the judges DID give her a 9.6, Carly could have easily adjusted her routines to beat her. That's like saying "Well, that 3 pointer I shot in the 2nd quarter was counted as a 2 and should be reviewed in a game I lost by 1". She lost, Carly won and was the better gymnast. After the 1972 Munich games, I can't believe the RUssians would bitch about ANYTHING being "unfair".

  • It was an ugly vault.

  • @strongbad635 Her chest was above the 90 degree position when she hit the ground, thus there is no deduction for a low landing. I would have given it a 9.6.

  • This was not perfect of course, but it was better than the score it was given. She had two chances to became the AA champion... here, and Sydney. Sydney just makes me angry! Now this vault is a 5.9 in difficulty! =D Crazy Khorki!

  • @xayresx wtf are you talking about

  • @comanecisalto1 and that's the great thing about it: she doesn't need a medal to prove how good she is, the world just knows she is the best.
