I would love to see modern-day gymnastics utilize the low bar more and have more transitions like they did back in the 70s. Nowadays, it's just basically a high bar routine.
With the bars as far as they are today, many of the skills they did before are now impossible. Variety is also limited, since there is no option for a switch involving any other part of the body except the hands, and there needs to be a lot more momentum built up for a transition to happen.
Finally found others that feel the same way I do. With the bars so far apart there's less fluidity in the transitions and the routines may only use the low bar to mount the bars and then spend majority of routine on the high bar all doing the same handful of skills.
@@gothgirl4evr881 exactly, they have all grown boringly near-identical. I just remember how great Nadia and Olga were to watch, their routines were exciting. Now we are watching the women do men's moves with the occasional switch to the low bar, just to make it official that it's not a man's routine.
I really miss the performances from back in the 70s and 80s when the bars were closer together and they worked both bars evenly. Now most of the routines are done on the high bar. The routines had more fluidity when they were closer together in my opinion. They were stunningly beautiful
What is crazy is to think, from the 1996 Olympic Games to the 2001 worlds she was never defeated on bars! Shows how masterful she was on that particular apparatus.
She definitely had her moments and could be dynamic, but there were some definite flaws in her handstands. In particular, her transition to low bar or when she would cast to handstand for pirouettes. She had a tendency to overarch her back and releases were slightly crooked or off center sometimes. She would fling herself so high into the air and with that much amplitude/air time I’m surprised she wasn’t able to correct in time. These are such minor nitpicks and with that said, my goodness, Dominique Dawes had the best tapped giants of almost any gymnast I’ve ever witnessed. Man or woman. Kelli Hill had a knack for putting together some of greatest bar routines. Elyse Ray is another one of her bar protégés. Ugh, it’s unfortunate what we now know about Kelli Hill being problematic and similarly as abusive as the rest of USAG/USGF coaches.
i find it so funny how rare shaposhnikovas and paks were and how they would be amazed everytime they came up, like we hardly see other types of transitions nowadays
There were a couple of these where I slowed it down to half speed to watch the transitions. It would be wonderful to see some of these again. I know it's all compacted in to get the points as high as possible now, but I still think something unusual would be nice to see once in a while.
@@catinabox3048I think that has taken so much away from the performances on uneven bars. I say that in every comment section I see on bars and this is the first one I've been in that I see others that feel the same way. It's gotten to the point that women aren't doing uneven bars they are doing high bar routines where they use the low bar to mount the apparatus. It isn't really much different then men's high bar routines.
The sheer talent from these ladies is phenomenal. I could sit here and watch their gymnastics routines all day long, happily! When I was younger, I loved Nadia Commenicci (sp?). Mary Lou Retton was in the Olympics while I was attending my own gymnastics classes. I wish I could have started at a younger age, and been better at it. I so desperately wanted to be a professional gymnast.
Same here. I unfortunately had to move to a different state when I had just made the gymnastics team, in fact we moved on the day of what would've been my first competition so I never got to compete. Where we moved didn't have a good gym anywhere close to us so I had to quit long before I should've. I often wonder what I could've done had I not had to leave the gym I trained at so young.
Just stunning routines, so much more dynamic than the Shaposhnikova ping pong routines of today. Would love to see more variation back in UB but the way FIG is going, I don't think they will ever do it. For some reason they seem happy to watch the sport decline before their eyes.
I agree that modern bars can be very formulaic, but I don't think the problem is actually because of Shaposhnikova and pak transitions. They are used frequently, but the alternative is some of the very dull transitions we saw in the 1990s, like standing on the low bar, that little "pop" thing kim and others do, and poorly executed bails that don't end in a handstand. Dina Kochekova's routine was greatly improved by a pak salto and shaposh, so it's really the rest of the routine and underutilization of the low bar that is the issue with some of today's routines, not the transition skills themselves.
@@stanleygagner While I see your point, I have to disagree. You can look at routines from the 2012 quad and before that to see good examples of what UB routines used to be like - routines like Huang Qiushuang’s, He Kexin’s, Tweddle’s, even Kyla Ross or Jordyn Wieber’s. Much more dynamic routines with more skill variety, that aren’t all practically the same routine over and over. Imo the transitions weren’t bothersome to watch at all. I’d rather have a poorly executed toe shoot at this point than sit through the same routine 100 times in a competition.
Floor and vault have really become more exciting than they used to be, but bars and beam seem less and less creative. It’s great to see these historical bar routines.
I agree but even floor has become less creative it's more about how high powered difficult tumbling passes then it is about a mixture of dance skills and tumbling skills. I miss watching the exhibition meets back in the 90s where it wasn't a competition but a show where the rules were relaxed a little and the gymnasts could use rock and roll, country, or whatever music not just instrumental and they could where costumes that matched their routines. They don't do those anymore.
Some wonderfully creative mounts and transitions. This fluid elegance and originality is missing from current competition. Not the gymnasts fault when they have to chase the points.
I agree now a days most of the routines are done on the high bar and there isn't as much fluidity and transitioning between the bars like when they were closer together.
East Germany ( GDR) owned uneven bars in the 1970's and 1980's. Karin Janz, Maxi Gnauck, Dorte Thuemller, Gabrielle Fahnrich and Dagmar Kersten all time greats !
The ones from the 70's and 80's are soooo much better and way more interesting than the same old ones they do today and they are way harder than today!!
That’s your opinion. I think todays gymnastics are sooooo much more difficult and hardly boring. The girls from 1970s and 1980s could never do what is being done today on any apparatus. Perhaps you are bothered by seeing African American women dominate a sport that skinny Europeans and Chinese women once dominated. Oh well, progress rules, not the past.
It shows us how little innovation there has been on uneven bars in the last 10-15 years. Also every single one of these girls had stretched feet with ankles together in every handstand instead of the all too common sickled feet we see today.
I gymed in late 70’s and first half of the 80’s. My mother ran a ballet studio so I had a strong dance background. Worked at a gym in the 20 teens and really worked with my girls on presentation, turn out and not sickling the feet. The team head coach told me that stuff wasn’t important and I should be working on difficulty. I don’t work there anymore.
Is it possible to have the year each was performed in the future? I love thinking back to when I saw them on tv...and trying to remember when I saw them!
