This, I feel, is Elena's best floor routine ever. She really improved on her dance & artistry instead of just relying on her awesome power & tumbling abilities. I saw her in winter 1988 in America as part of a Tour of Champions featuring Olympic & World champion athletes. She did her Olympic beam routine (a little watered down of course) and some exhibition routines.

And the US didn't ruin the sport-Judges & officials did by changing the rules & scoring so drastically since 1989.

@vanesaablueyes Hmm, perhaps compared to Oksana (who was grace and artistry personified), but what I was thinking was how expressive she was for such a powerful girl--looking at her, you *expect* her to be a great tumbler, but she nails the artistry as well, IMO. Very expressive hands.

@binho0403 Mas essa época ainda não era Rússia haha digo,não na época de Shushunova,Shevchenko,Boguinks­kaya...URSS também tinha Ucrânia,Bielorrússia,e outras nações juntas.A Rússia realmente digna apareceu nas Olimpíadas de Atlanta sim,e novamente no ciclo seguinte,só que sempre perdendo pra Romênia :S elas voltaram com tudo agora em 2010,e devem vir 'tombativas' em 2012 :P kk

[binho0403]

A Rússia só perde qdo é roubada, como aconteceu nas Olimpiadas de Atlanta, onde a atleta americana montou um cirquinho, ai meu pezinho, e como a maioria do mundo é, são, e se ñ criarem vergonha sempre serão prostitutas dos EUA, nada vai mudar.

[Dolore]

I'm not even a fan of 80ies gymnastics but this routine had me in awe and I had to rewind a couple of times because I couldn't believe it O.o Absolutely stunning.

[LaVoix555]

This routine had it all. It was with AMAZING tumbling, dance, music, dance...INCREDIBLE!!
