    I love the concept of this video and the tidbits of information you've added but skipping the '80s (and '90s) does a great disservice to the whole idea. The '80s especially is the most innovative, creative and fun decade to watch! There's a huge difference between the gymnastics of the '70s and of the '80s. They still had artistry, form and beautiful coreophraphies on floor and beam but they also had big skills on all events, some of which are now banned because they're too dangerous. The vault was forever changed by Yurchenko, on bars they had so many incredibly new skills that are still used today (the Shaposhnikova for example) on top of beautifully weird mounts and dismounts, on floor they had back to back tumbling, Silivas did a double double for the first time, and the coreos were always so fun to watch. They had so much originality that is now almost completely lost. You can't have a video on the evolution of gymnastics without the '80s.

    In modern gymnastics it feels like the difficulty matters more than execution so we see more awkward looking or messy routines. If execution mattered more than difficulty it might be more visually appealing with fewer wobbles and step outs and pauses to focus between elements as athletes wouldn't push themselves to do acrobatics they couldn't do perfectly. But instead it's more about pushing the boundaries and developing physical strength. It's still an amazing sport and I'm in awe of the power of today's gymnasts but it feels like they've taken the "artistic" out of "artistic gymnastics".

    • @robertvirnig638
      @robertvirnig638 12 дней назад +1

      I agree that the balance between execution and difficulty needs to be adjusted. As it is Simone can do insanely difficult routines that she never executes cleanly. She often makes massive blunders and still easily gets the highest score. If the execution was more highly valued she would have to dial back her acrobatics a bit and we would get a more beautiful routine albeit less extreme. This is an overcorrection of the 10 point system where difficulty didn't matter as long as certain required elements were done and provided no incentive for more impressive stunts.

    I wish connections on beam were flowy like in the 60s more often, at least for the dance steps. I feel like it's all very robotic and blocky even on floors dance steps 😢 Like can we get more flowy steps and connections and that?
    For example the floor video from 65, the dancing is actual dancing not just some hand and arm movements that are super robotic and don't express much like I see VERY often (not always but probably the large majority of routines I see)

    • @VanessasFanedits
      @VanessasFanedits  4 месяца назад +5

      That were my thoughts too. But I guess I understand why that changed because the skills are so much harder you can't just get up on the beam and do them all, you need a certain preparing for it moment, which gives you that pause ... But yes I actually liked watching the older beams videos more than today's.

      First decade of 2000s was ok. When male muscle appeared in the top US female, it had become unwatchable.
      Those of us familiar with decades of women in all sports + body building never looked like that, it was clear that at least microdosing with anabolic steroids had become involved.
      Who knows? Perhaps the PEDs also affect brains sufficiently to eliminate even the desire for flowing from move to move.

  • @luxurylifela2068
    @luxurylifela2068 16 дней назад +3

    This is so interesting. It almost feels like two different sports. I know nothing about gymnastics and don’t really have the terminology to describe it. All I can say is the 60 and 70s gymnasts were so flexible and elegant. They really had style and grace. I can see in the 2000s where the gymnasts seem to really combine the two. By the 2020s, their athletic skill is amazing. I always wondered, having only seen modern gymnastics, why they bother with what I see as the “dance” elements because it usually looks so robotic and ridiculous on these athletes. The music is usually irrelevant too because it could be any song because the movements don’t look timed to it at all. Now it makes sense that those elements are a holdover from when gymnastics looked very different. I’m torn on what to think. I truly respect the athleticism and power of today’s gymnasts but I love how beautiful the old style gymnasts look performing their routines as well. They’re actually combining dance elements meaningfully with acrobatic skills. I guess if you’re into the beauty side, there’s rhythmic gymnastics but part of me would like to see there be something in the middle that combines artistry along with athletics, and then a form more like men’s that would cut out all of the dancing stuff and let the woman just compete. I think there are some great gymnasts today that would shine if they didn’t have to add some of those dance elements. They don’t look good doing it and it takes away from their skill. We also have some gymnasts that are just so graceful and flowy that lack the power of some of the top gymnasts but as an untrained eye, their routines actually look better and more put together to me. It would be nice if each group had a place to shine.

    And the floor, hardly anyone ever had movements to the music that flowed together, like back in the 90s before and after, era. It was choppy and didnt go with a beat or flow. Performance definitely lost value. Tumbling is awesome, but just moving arms and spinning around does not a gymnast make lol

    I love how they cherry-picked their examples to make their point. The beam routine for 2021 was probably the worst possible example. Nothing makes it look less flowing than a fall!
    Everyone says, "I wish it hadn't gotten such high difficulty and maintained the artistry." 😅 1) People want to evolve their sport. Is the racecar driver going to race with more flair? No! He's going to drive faster. The gymnasts it going to go higher and add more flips, twists, and straighten their body position. 2) Artistry comes with mastery. Simone's Tripple Double is SO much prettier now that she's mastered it. It is starting to take on artistry.

    Personally I love watching the power and athleticism the women have today. I wish they could forego the weird little dance gestures and go for the really difficult moves. Those are breathtaking. If I want dance moves, I'll watch ballet, which is also breathtaking in another way. I think it's this leftover tradition of what gymnastics used to be that doesn't reflect the unbelievable acrobatics they can pull off now.
