Ekaterina Lobaznyuk Beam EF '00 Olympics

Lobaznyuk is one of my favorite gymnasts of all time. She was always so clean and precise. I think she would have made an even bigger name for herself if she hadn't gotten injured.

My thanks to Lex Trotter (R.I.P) for the video.

Did she win a medal for this?

[jezmerallia]

I believe she got silver.

[Querzeo]

@jezmerallia silver went to Raducan.

[jezmerallia]

@Querzeo No it didn't. Lui Xuan got gold. Lobaznyuk got silver. Produnova got bronze.

[Timic83pronc]

@Querzeo Raducan didn't qualify.

She deserved the Gold. But she take off the Shushunova with full turn on Beam, because the fall at team finals, and her SV was not harder than in Prelims.

Best Arabian ever, and a front aerial with take off from 2 feet, don't see that too often.

@GymnasticsFan1144 thanks, I was just curious :)

[GymnasticsFan1144]

@tmwalkerm No I think she was the 2nd because Viktoria Karpenko was the 1st :)

who was the first woman to do an arabian on the beam?

[zhangshinyi]

so wait, she took out the part she fell on in the tf right??

[SuperBodee1]

i rank this routine in the top 10 best for so many reasons, not just the arabian. her style is amazing.

Al: "I think I'd pause too if I was going to do that."

Al needed to pause before he took this job.
