Pretending it was a great routine just because she died is offensive to Hillary's gymnastics and her memory--there is no need to be so patronizing. This was a very weak set, and her gymnastics was not up to par with the gymnasts who made the Olympic team that year. Simple as that.
ok fair enough, sorry benrobinson, maybe I confused you with some on here who would take great pleasure in taking the piss of someone who had died young.....and im afraid there are plenty!
It wasnt meant to be personal against Hillary, I knoew she died. Actually almost every American bar routine in this time period looked like this, that was more my point ... about how boring the routines used to be. Actually my highbar routine looked similar to this just a few extra elements.
this routine had NOTING in it. reverse hect, and double back dismount ... big whoop, LOL. its amazing to see how bars has gotten much more exciting these days
yeah she got screwed by the judes who had a beef aainst Karoli having to meany of his "six Pack" on that years team. For whatever reason they chose her. She was really a very nice person.
I din't know much about Hilary Grivich (exept she idn't make the Olympic team and died in an accident).... Can you please tell me what happened to her?

She was a victim of politics. Poor kid. RIP Hilary.
