esta rutina es TODA UNA OBRA DE ARTE!! :D

[luvzamo]

fantastic!!! this is surely the best routine in this year, even in this olympic period. Wow! she is still the queen

[cosmos0117]

@cosmos0117 but overall the ranking is fine, and about the score compare to all finalists' performance Charkashyna and Miteva made mistakes too, I don't see big problem. 

[cosmos0117]

對此影片做出回應... and I said it again Zhenya was not perfect in 2008 too, she was like you said has been not as consistent with her difficulties in 2008 too, she also made mistakes if you still follow all her events in 2008. We can't expect gymnast always be perfect every time, they are human, Zhenya already is the best in stability among all active gymnasts, for this EC. for EC Minsk ribbon final, Kondakova got 29.075, then of course Zhenya can got 29+ judges are unfair I know.

對此影片做出回應... Zhenya won all except that ball in GP Holon 2011 in GP Series, anyway, overall when all Russian Big three were there in the same competition, Zhenya won most of time, Zhenya only compete first half WC series this season, that's normal she was more unstable especially in clubs, because last two years no clubs. but most top gymnasts are shaky in clubs this year if you follow all most competitions.

[cosmos0117]

@camille32087 not to mention Zhenya didn't compete then she got zero point in Sofia, and only one A category event in 2011, Zhenya was in Universiade ShenZhen 2011 at the same time when WC Sofia held, now you understand why her ranking dropped!!! And I tell you in Grand Prix Series Zhenya tops in ALL apparatus, and she leads with a big matgin!!! if you don't have enough information don't make conclusion, Zhenya only lost once in GP series this season (ball in GP Holon, didn't qualify)

[cosmos0117]

@camille32087 well since you didn't follow the competitions very well, didn't follow Zhenya's competitions very well why Zhenya's ranking dropped this year, simply because she didn't compete many fig world cup series (only three) this year, world cup ranking counted 4 best competitions, most important the category A world cup sofia, Zhenya didn't compete, it's points is way much higher than category B competition, for example gold is 50 ponits, but for B gold is only 30,

[camille32087]

@cosmos0117 Mainly, my qualms lie with the judges and not with the gymnasts themselves. I do a lot of video analysis and find a lot of discrepancies in scores amongst privileged gymnast. But I understand that RG is very political (but DEFINITELY think Genia has earned most of her accolades, compared to some other gymnasts). Thankyou for the link, I'm for sure going to watch all of the ribbon final and see how the routines compare!

[camille32087]

@cosmos0117 And I do think her artistic ability has done nothing but grow since 2008. But I still feel she has been not as consistent with her difficulties. I have watched most of her competitions this season, and sometimes she nails and sometimes she doesn't. And it has been evident, she has dropped on the FIG world ranking from the #1 spot to #4 (kondakova 1, dmitrieva 2, lubov 3). Kondakova is a whole nother topic(I much prefer genia's artistry).

[camille32087]

@cosmos0117 NO i agree, i wasn't necessarily saying she didn't derserve this win, just that it wasn't a 29, and she is capable of performing better to earn it. And I haven't watched the entire final so its possible that all the scores were inflated. I don't care if the judges are harsh or forgiving, as long as they are consistent with all the gymnasts. Normally I tend to find that the judges are forgiving with certain gymnast, then harsh with others, which makes the overall competition unfair

[cosmos0117]

@camille32087 moreover, this is just Zhenya's one competition of this season, she also wasn't perfect all the times in 2008, how can to say 2008 is stronger than this year, just compare with her one competition? do you watch all her performances in 2008? and this season? I watched all. If you like, again in my ZKG vimeo channel, many full TV coverage video, I don't like youtube anymore so most the full TV coverages I uploaded to vimeo

[cosmos0117]

@camille32087 please watch the whole ribbon EF then to say if Zhenya deserved the 1st place or the score or not...since Kondakova score 29+ too I don't see why Zhenya can't, well overscore or not if the whole ranking is fine I am fine, Zhenya didn't perfect, still a great routine and She DESERVE her first place in this EC ribbon final, check my another channel @vimeo, this is the TV coverage for Clubs+Ribbon finals
