Let’s keep in mind that most of these banned moves were done at a time when the floor had no springs at all and mats were paper thin. Gymnasts needed run high speed & literally use leg muscle to jump high since floor mats had little to no bounce. In 70s-early 80s as well, the beam at Olympics was 10cm wide only (3.97 inches). They were incredible, especially Korbut, Comaneci.
Can confirm. I competed in the 80s and we did not have sprung floors to train on
kid the beam is still only 10cm/4in wide I don't know why you think that's changed when every gymnastics broadcast in the history of ever feels the need to bring it up
@@Altoclarinets the beam is softer now and not made of wood which is a completely different feel of stability and give doing flips and handsprings
Word
Fact we tumbled on a thin mat on concrete in the mid 70s luckily I can still walk
Ash is pure muscle and can bust out anything but this episode made me realize that Niles technique can't be beat.
read this before the video started your totally right
You can come a long way in Gymnastics with strenght, but if you haven't got the technique it's never gonna be as good as it could be.
…until he damn near smashed his face on the high bar. Totally agree though.
As an allstar cheerleader I find the different banned skills so interesting like in cheer we aren’t allowed to do more than a single flip or triple twists yet loads of high level athletes have ‘bounce back’ passes when that’s banned in gymnastics
I know🤯
The biggest difference I've seen between the tumbling in gymnastics routines vs. cheer routines is the overall structure. Cheer routines have a tumbling section that is meant to really showcase specific tumbling skills and athletes while gymnastics is more about skill and in elite gymnastics, start value. Both sports are absolutely amazing and all of the athletes have my utmost respect, and I love to watch both. It is crazy the difference between what is and isn't allowed, though.
It’s crazy how the punch out to the flips going the opposite direction is a prerequisite in extreme cheerleading but yet banned in gymnastics.
I was curious about this too because I could’ve sworn I’d seen gymnasts do this in recent years! It seems that a lot of these “banned” skills either organically or intentionally lose favor in routines and are rarely actually banned.
The punch out to a subsequent floor pass, for example, is still allowed (from what I could find) but the code of points doesn’t value it enough to be worth it to do. Gymnasts will get more points by doing harder skills that require more power (and therefore need to be semi-isolated) then they will by doing subsequent passes of easier tumbling skills. Also, the nature of the subsequent passes apparently make it easier to make minor mistakes, meaning you’ll lose points on an already lower value skill. From my recollection, you’ll still see punch out skills, they just won’t often lead to a floor pass.
However, the code of points also intentionally devalues skills that are more dangerous to discourage gymnasts to perform them. It’s not worth it to do a super difficult skill if you’re not getting much even from a perfect execution.
TL;DR a lot of these skills aren’t technically banned, they’re just devalued (either bc they’re dangerous or bc better skills have surpassed them) meaning it’s rare to see them in competition
The article that explained it best was “10 Gymnastics Skills From The Past That Aren't Performed Anymore” by Flogymnastics
8:40 As a Romanian i honestly didn't think Marian Dragulescu is that well-known outside of this country. It makes me so happy that you guys know him
Even in the States he is a legend! He’s world renowned! I think countries don’t realize how much other countries respect their athletes. I used to have a poster of Kohei Unchimaura in my college room and the Japanese exchange students saw it one day and they took pictures and gave me trinkets. It was wholesome!
@Edi Marian Watch BBC coverage of gymnastics, he is very much celebrated by the commentary team.
Dragulescu is my idol… any gymnast from the past 20 years knows that man, regardless of country.
Hell yeah, his named vault is so satisfying to see
Very famous to anyone at all interested in elite gymnastics, he's one of the all time greats
I felt like a proud parent watching joanna do the punch thing 😂 thinking back on when they did the vid of her being taught the basics. 🥺🥺🥺
Same! She's really good at picking things up and she proves to people that you can acquire and master new gymnastics skills even if you're not a mater level gymnast or not a teen any longer.
Still, till today, Olga Korbut is probably the most fearless gymnast in the world...
My favorite athlete ever
Didn’t Mukhina add a twist to her move + do the Thomas salto (which we all know paralyzed her)
also honorable mention to anyone who has tried a Produnova “vault of death”
@@nondescriptbeing5944 Exactly. Not to mention the Teza (full twisting Korbut on the balance beam). Which although not banned has still only been performed by Elvire Teza herself.
@@MD-722 technically the Korbut on beam is the swing down. The full twisting Korbut is a rulfova. But if you mean the Korbut flip beam equivalent, that would be the produnova loop. The teza would be the mukhina flip equivalent on beam. At least I think that’s what you mean.
I can't begin to imagine how sadistic Olga Korbut's coach had to have been to create the uneven bar routine for her where she is flipping backwards into that ovary crusher move. The guys did a GREAT job @ performing the top bar backflip routine. Crazy scary! It's just insane how challenging gymnastics was in the 70s and 80s.
We know so much more now in both gymnastics and dance then we did just 20 years ago, much less 40 or 50 years ago. Horror stories about coaches sitting on athletes to force flexibility into their hips and feet… insane hours of overtraining causing repetitive damage to the body… thank goodness for science and medicine and best practices. If only they were practiced all over the globe. I would not want to be a gymnast or dancer learning in most Asian countries… or Russia… or a lot of the Balkan states. Sadly, online videos show so many coaches still using techniques most of Europe and North America abandoned a decade or more ago.
Great to see guys doing some high quality (forbidden) tricks, Nile back in shape probably even better than when he was competing. It just makes me happy
Not forbidden, BANNED. No-one can compete that elements.
@@agusguti …forbidden meaning you can’t perform them. it’s another word for banned
I’ve always wanted to see contemporary gymnasts try the Korbut flip omggggg
Also, I can’t believe people were doing the Thomas for so long after Mukhina got completely paralyzed 😭
You should check out tricking, there are a few people that still do it, both in gyms and outside. This is a video from my channel of a guy doing it at the end of an 11-move combo:
ruclips.net/video/N0v90UBGP_w/видео.html
The double pass (punch front) that they were trying, is actually something really common in cheerleading 😊 absolutely terrifying.
Also, try to get a collab with Angel rice!!!!
that collab would be amazing
Once watched a girls Achilles tear and shoot up her leg when completing this pass at nationals 😬😬
I was just thinking about “of course after gymnastics banned it-cheer said NOT US” tumbling should have the same safety counsel
Love how in that little segment where Luke compliments everyone, Ash is the only one to compliment him back and even then he does it INSTANTLY!! xD
You apsolutely smashed it! All these videos just hype me up and make me wanna try and get some of the skills! (Not these tho haha) but just getting involved and seeing what I can do! Thank you squad! 😁❣
Nile when you are too old too do all this mad stuff I think you'll make a fantastic, encouraging and inspiring coach!
So good to see Nile looking like a beast again. Hope you're feeling healthy!
I used to have a lot of fun in the gym and as a kid. I remember impressing kids my age (10-16) by doing a jump-roll on the grass, and it was so strange to realize other kids were afraid to tumble like that on the ground. At some point i joined a gymastics gym and learned how to do a proper-form on-the-mat gymnast-salto and a proper-form wheel (13 years ago). Your antics make me wonder why i ever stopped :) now i'm 34, overweight and feeling sorry for myself. I'm giving yous a complement, you are full of life and fun to watch!
Just love seeing you do gymnastics. It makes me wanna do it too. Sometimes the content doesn't have to be more "epic" than that. Cus gymnastics is EPIC!
Thank you, Luke! I needed to smile today and when you told the camera that you hoped you smiled today it put a smile on my face. I didn't know how stressful the day had really been.
You guys are absolutely fearless. You say its scary, but still make an attempt. That is what makes you guys amazing!
As someone who quit gymnastics because I couldn't face my fears, I want to be more like them
These videos are making me cry and smile at the same time. I did gymnastics as a kid and was told to go to Huntingdon gymnastics club as they saw potential in me. It was great my first evening one to one with a female coach, got to jump in the pit repeatedly, used the trampolines which I showed great skill's, beam also. It was so much fun. I then came back for my first session and it was obvious I hadn't had the training the girls have had and they let me know it. I was in tears. They bullied me every lesson I attended to the point I would just stand there and cry or hide in the toilets. We all start out fresh and you can't expect kids to know or be able to do everything. I hope this bullying doesn't go on today. There's always those thoughts of what if. Shame on the coaches who saw it and never stopped it also!
I love videos where you are in the gym. And I have never seen such a cool gym in my life. I remember what a highlight it was back in my schooldays when they built the trampoline and let us jump on it.
These days I have to visit a Jumphouse to feel the excitement but I feel my growing anxiety, too. Your flips look so effortless (yeah, I know I am talking about former Olympic gymnasts) but even Joanna and her best friend did it so easily...
It inspires me to learn more about what I can do being 42 and not really trained at all...
Same
I swear these videos make me want to rent out a gym for a couple hours just to run around. I am not and never was this skilled, but having access to proper equipment is a game changer at any age or ability level. And fuk I love trampolines and hate how expensive the liability insurance is to own one.
You 3 guys are brilliant.... Maybe some day you'd do a demonstration day. It would be an honour to pay to watch the three of you... Maybe raise some money for mental health. I'm sure you would sell every ticket ❤️
That is what I was thinking- maybe invite other retired gymnast to put on a bit of a show, the likes of Sam Oldham, Jay Thompson, Reiss Beckford etc. I'd pay good money to go to that.
I would even fly over! Can't miss out on that one.
Recently found this channel. Have not ever been a gymnast nor a sporty type of person. Still find this very entertaining and fascinating, and I just have to say as an American, thanks for the subtitles on occasion! Your speech patterns are very unfamiliar to me, so I'm glad to have them so I can still follow along with the conversation!
It's nice to see you all having fun trying banned skills in a safe environment. The few close calls you had reminds you even a very high level athlete can make a mistake. Be safe out there! :)
Actually starting to the notice the size Nile is putting back on all down to his hard work and graft in the gym keep it up Nile 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love watching your videos, they make me smile after a long day of school and dance class as it csn get quite stressful sometimes...thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these videos 📹:)
Luke’s concern and straight wtf face after Nile messes up a double… gives me feels. Love the musketeers friendships
The uneven bars are the entire reason I was too scared to continue gymnastics and ended up stopping so watching banned uneven bar skills made me literally flinch
New Merch idea - Wilsonator headbands/ Alice bands
“as seen on the wavy haired Wilsonator and crew (can transform into a bracelet for the Ash and Luke of your group😁)
This can be the promo vid
As a old gymnastics coach I love watching these videos! At the same time they scare me to absolute death.
I really appreciate the slow mo play backs. I miss everything because I’m so distracted by how talented everyone is
I used to do the laid out Thomas as well. Always gave me the willies. Glad they banned it. Also, a crazy banned skill that was actually competed. Handspring triple front. Banned immediately after it was performed lol.
I actually did the back to back tumbling pass in one of my routines back in the early 2000s. My coaches were always mad bc I did stuff that was either above my level and I changed my routines weekly they never knew what I was going to do at the meet hahaha
I'm sure you could find more to do a follow up vid, my anxiety hasn't had enough fear of you guys breaking your necks clearly. The talent the lot of you have is incredible
Great video thank you guys ❤️
It was really interesting to watch how you learn a new skill, I really like your training based content.
Nile you'd be such a fantastic coach especially to young ones ❤️
Love what they got, more of a family then group of friends, we should all strive for this🤙🏻
A.N.X.I.E.T.Y!! you guys never cease to amaze your fans, I’m so incredibly impressed by your fitness and bravery when trying new things
The back flip front flip! 2 people at my gym were doing that on the air mat! I can do it on my trampoline but doing what u do after..... Respect!
Brilliant as always :-) loved watching Korbut in the day, my favourite was always Nadia Comeneci for skills and Nelly Kim for her mischievous smile :-)
Oh bought your book, looking forward to getting it :-)
The trouble with banning the most dangerous move, i.e. the one responsible for the most injuries, is that of the remaining skills, one of the becomes "promoted" to most dangerous. Something will always be the most something.
Love that edit when nile looks at the video on the phone and its projected in the air. Just love it.
So cute seeing Ash so absolutely pumped doing those moves at the beginning!!! ☺️🥰
The fact that he can do like everything. and I can’t even do a front roll is just.. 😔
You are talking about an Olympic gymnast.
He's an Olympian, the fact that you'd compare yourself is just...😒
@@voguehaven5154 the fact that you can’t take a joke is just😔
Nile!! Please do a video where you guys try freestyle calisthenics! Alot of these moves are pretty standard for the high level athletes and they're competed on a hard bar not a bouncy one! I would LOVE to watch it and I know the Calisthenics community would love to see it as well!
I loved watching the punch front, though it must have been exhausting to put that with the other runs. I think the first time I saw it done was by Romanian gymnast Daniela Silivas. She was amazing.
There's an old video on YT of a 1970s Kurt Thomas routine that was for its time shocking, and there's of course a front roll-out in it, and as much fun as it is to watch him and appreciate what he did for men's gymnastics, it's still a butt-clenchingly SCARY moment to modern eyes. O_O
Kurt Thomas was my favorite gymnast..he never got to live out his dream of being in the Moscow Games..he really changed the game of Gymnastics here in the US and all over the world. So sad he's passed away.
@@sandrasanders706 Same. Men's gymnastics can be divided into two eras: before and after Thomas. Before him, it was practically a sleep aid. After him, it was engaging, interesting, and just plain worth watching.
you all put a smile on my face. the short stocky mate is the definition of Big mans grace, brother floats, he said no to gravity early.
That's Ash. Watch more of these videos and be amazed. He is often the best at all the various challenges they try.
I’d love to see you guys try to do the full sequence for the korbat flip where she catches herself with her hips on the lower bar & flings herself back to catch herself again on the high bar. I know it’s super dangerous & I obviously wouldn’t want anyone to get hurt but it would be super cool to see it completed again. It’s such an amazing skill. Hers & Mukhina are absolute icons & it’s such a shame that Elena was injured the way she was. Side note: her coach was/is & absolute garbage human for overworking her the way he did & pushing her further than she was willing & able to go & deserves all the bad karma he’ll get for what he did to her. While it was *technically* her choice, it really wasn’t when it came down toit & it’s said that she was also pressured into doing dangerous skills by the leaders of Soviet Union which isn’t hard to believe at all. They were willing to do anything & everything they could do to win, including injuring they’re own athletes & who’s to say what would happen to you if you refused.
Ohhhh man….the fear that came over everyone when you almost hit your head on the bar. They were borderline mad for a second 🫣Love you all and your friendships so much! Stay safe ✌️❤️
fun fact: all of those are valid in freerunning competitions as long as you're able to do them xD The 360 dive roll is actually a trick that is commonly used by a lot of athletes for flow reasons.
PS You kid the Korbut flip on the high bar, not the Mukhina which has a full twist. But awesome job!!!
12:28 "...smile on your face" for a second sounded like "...smell on your face" 🤣
Love this! You guys are such monsters just casually doing all the moves with such ease. Stupid thought of the day. Have you done flying trapeze? I would pay to see leotards and fancy moves.
Nile: "it's scary summersaulting with your head into the ground"
Me: won't even do a forward roll for that reason 🤣🤣🤣
Where have Nile’s guns suddenly come from 😂 lovin your work fellas 🤘
You guys honestly motivate me to get healthier and to keep moving forward
And as always, Ash is good at everything.
2:17 “CALL US JALLADIN”
Good thing you guys post so often. Plenty to watch while getting over covid
The high school musical jump😂😂 10:06
I absolutely love watching you guys. You are amazing. You guys are inspiring!
You guys all smashed it, but oh my god I was on the edge of my seat! Can't believe some of the skills people used to do
1970’s gymnasts we’re hardcore. The Korbut flip was insane.
Now I want to find a gym and do flips & somersaults.
It's all about eeeya awaheeeyness! And you guys gottit!!!!
When you were talking about the Achilles tendon I cringed. I did point in ballet and martial arts and by 22 I had to have my left leg reconstructed. Achilles tendon cut and lengthened, tendon taken from my big toe to lift my arch (I was walking on my inner ankle), heal bone cut and shifted.
So envious of the discipline and dedication you've put in to be able to do these things with your bodies - I can't do a cartwheel any longer!
I am *always* on board for someone else to do a Korbut Flip. And honestly belly beats were insanely cool, emphasis on insane. 😂
Shoutout to @Ellis for the edit at 10:02 landing Joanna's "punchfront" right on the beat (a term I just heard for the first time today as I'm a magician, not a gymnast). FYI - I too like to edit and make Y.Tube Content - ruclips.net/channel/UCpMLIaLsQwkSlnG_323fbxg
So great to see The Three Musketeers back at the gym! Doubly happy noone got hurt. Awesome video guys!!
I APPRECIATE the breaking free cut away 😂 this is so cool. The way bodies can move is mad
Nile you’re getting massive again dude! Love the videos! Keep it up! 👏🏼
Awesome video, guys!!! Love the athleticism and the friendship you all share!!
2:08 I really like the pose Nile's pulling here
The amount of trust these people have in both their skills and their equipment...
They did so phenomenally spotting at the pool while doing front 1.5’s, I wonder if it made it even a little easier to transfer that spotting back to the roll outs?
Sorry my coaching brain thinks in weird ways.
Can we just appreciate his form 😍😍😍
That was so cool to see Sami join in. You guys make me smile so much and inspire me to continue to get healthier.
You look really good Nile. The hard work is paying off 🙋🏼♀️🤗
As a gymnast, the courage to do these banned skills is a lot, you guys are amazing
Whenever you’re on the bars my anxiety went up with that sharp edged table right next to the mats 😬
You guys are so bold and daring and I love it
So nice to see you all having fun!!
Luke’s training with you is really showing! Your arms are looking nice Nile!!
Loving all the content !! Gunna miss all the videos after Christmas xx
I remember watching the Olympics when I was little…sooo many moons ago…I would end up cuddled into the pillows on my sofa, cringing. The beam had me more scared than any horror movie I’ve seen since. I love watching you guys, not when the damn beam is involved, I just listen to your shenanigans then.
My 2 year old thinks you guys are superhero’s 😩 I hope that warms your heart as much as it did mine! Keep at it!
When you sit on the bar fall back and flip. We called that a demon or penny drop. Use to do that as kids all the time on the play ground.
Hello Neli I follow long time ago crazy video I love it 😀 funny yes that guy Marian Dragulescu that guys is legend I don't understand how him still got power to competition
that was pretty cool..........i'm glad you are all being safe!!!
1:19
Luke's kinda blending in with the background🤣
The roll outs remind me of 1&3s in trampolining. Except we go higher and open out at 12 and watch it allllll the way down to land on our back. A lot of the roll outs you did I think I've seen as prep skills at trampolining. Eg full in cruise and duck under (1 1/2 twisting 1&3) is a prep for a full full (double back with full twist in each somi).
I recently landed a double twist and yah all I see is the world spinning.
Would love to see a Giant on the end of tuck off the bar to catch! Ash and Nile would definitely be able to do it with the power in the end of the swing
Some of my friends took martial arts. Their first lesson was the suicide roll. It was basically the roll-out - but on a cement floor without putting your hands out.
its crazy how they spot imminent falls/disaster before it happens- lmaoo im always like.. what was wrong with that 😂
9:00 okay but that is genuinely how I wear my hair on a regular basis lmao
I m from Romania. Nice to hear you guys talk about Marian Drăgulescu 😊
You guys are insane loved every bit of it
I actually understand when you explain things, which is a nice change to just always being confused lol
From 8:10 forwards I couldn’t stop staring at his hair 😂
