THE DOUBLE WORLD ALL-AROUND CHAMPION ON BARS-EXCELLENT ROUTINE-SHE SCORES A 9.887 AND WINS THE GOLD! PLEASE TAKE TIME TO LEAVE A COMMENT AND RATING-THANKS!
Shannon's legs are glued together. Gymnasts now cannot glue their legs like that. A lot of them keep the feet together, but bow their legs- it doesn't look good, but Shannon had flawless form on giants and kips.
Absolutely agreed. You couldn't slip paper between Shannon's legs unless she wanted you to. I wonder if we'll ever see her like again? With all this emphasis on specialization and the loss of the perfect ten, I have to wonder - will we ever see a gymnast who can compare to Shannon Miller on any event, let alone as an all-arounder? Frankly, I doubt it. She was the gymnast of a century.
Nope. Biles is a mediocre bars worker at best and her beam is inconsistent and relies almost entirely on tumbling for difficulty. So does her floor, actually. Shannon is a true all-arounder. Biles is a three-eventer with a semi-decent bars set.
It's amazing how strong she was on bars in 93, and then by 96, it was her weakest event. She really has a great routine there, and hits those handstands nicely.
Yes! We agree again! I only wish that Lisenko had been able to do what she was capable of, as she would have medalled as well! Spasiba (??), russianskatingfan!
This was 1993, so at this point she had already been to the 1992 Olympics and won a ton of medals...she narrowly missed the AA, but was still extremely successful. She then returned to the Olympics in 1996, helping the Magnificent 7 to win the first AA team gold ever for the U.S.A. - and winning her own gold medal on the balance beam. :D
She was an amazing gymnast, too bad Nuno never laid off her. I mean she knows the routine as well as she did. It made him look like he thought she didn't have a brain and couldn't think without his constant play-by-play input.
What a routine that was! Perfection! Shannon had some of the purest gymnastics ever! This bar routine exemplifies that!
Shannon always had great form.

Rosie I bet Simone Biles helped to change your mind

@@rolandgreen7484 Thanks for telling me how little you know about gymnastics, bye
I agree Shannon is the greatest, the greatest American gymnast and no, we will never see another like her
@@rolandgreen7484 She made every event finals on vault. She fell in 94 or would have had bronze.

I love Shannon, simply the best ever

absolutely the best US gynast ever!!! =D
WOW! I love this routine, it is very unique! LOVE IT! What a great job Shannon did!
Thanks for the upload :) Nice to see one I haven't seen before.
Awesome routine and beautiful form.
omg i think so! i saw her in the olympics and then i saw her just now and wow! i admire her for her age competing in this years olympics. :)
she was bars, floor, and AA champion :)
shes amazing
I LOVE the free-hip hect with the hapf turn. Why don't people do that now days?
Thanks Gymfloozie! Now I have to buy that book as well!
Extremely nice routine. Definitely deserved gold here.
"perfect landing" more like perfect routine(:
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank-you! Don't look if it is out of your way and you have enough to do!

Yes, I'd like to see it.
that is oksana chusovitina?!?! so young
Awesome
Yes!!! I agree. I think it was devalued, though. Lysenko was the only other gymnast during this time that did that move, then it kind of vanished.
I've never liked how cumbersome her full turn looks, almost hectic, however, she was easily the best on bars here.
and floor champion!
A barbie doll flying on the bars.
Oh, Steve.
But Miller landed it absolutely perfectly! Besides, Shannon's form was so far superior to anyone else's, particularly Moceanu.
Do you have Chusovitina's bar routine?
She was an amazing gymnast, too bad Nuno never laid off her. I mean she knows the routine as well as she did. It made him look like he thought she didn't have a brain and couldn't think without his constant play-by-play input.
Who are the commentators?
Little confused-was she the AA world champion, or just the bars EF champion?
cj222100 both
@ferency98 Actually, Miller always bent her legs just slightly in the tap of her giants. She was still a great gymnast, so I'm not knocking that.
