- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Someone asked so here are my top 5 (new and improved video where you can actually here the music)
this was really hard to pick just five so here is some that got close:
Daniela Silivas - 1987 Europeans
Natalia Ilienko - any routine
Olga Mostepanova - 1983 Worlds
Natalia Yurchenko - 1985 Worlds
Cheng Fei - 2004 Olympics
Meng Fei - 1997 Worlds
Svetlana Khorkina - 1994 Worlds (AA)
Elena Produnova - 1997 Worlds
Annika Reeder - 1994 Commonwealth Games (EF)
Anna Pavlova - 2008 Olympics
Olga Strazheva - 1989 Worlds
Thanks for sharing 5 examples of beautiful dance that really showed off personality and originality. Most modern floor routines look like they are being done on the beam with extremely controlled elements and little or no personality. I am not sure how the Code of Points could be changed to better reward this beauty.
love that they are actually "dancing" in their floor routines. The ones these days are all tumbling passes and minimal dance steps
They are able to dance because they don't have a dumb requirement that dance skills have to count towards their D score. When you have to do a bunch of turning leaps for value, the dance quality of the entire routine goes down.
I agree its so dull now tumble rumble etc etc no art
This is why I love gymnastics from the 70s early eighhies .climax of greatness was 1988 silivas shoushanova .never seen anything like it .poor shushanova god hive her peace
Today with those male muscles they can't do artistry like in the older days
@@kandragraham5769 I doubt taking out leaps and turns would result in any change. First off, there are a select few of gymnast today who have performing capabilities reminiscent of these days along with having difficulties. New gymnast are completely capable of having artistic routines in this day and age. Secondly, most of these pre - modern routine have leaps and turns anyway. Third, taking out leaps and turns would just lead to more filler choreography in between tumbling passes. What's needed is deductions for lack of artistry. And lastly, taking turns and leaps out bc they're tiring wouldn't make sense bc the most tiring part of a routine is tumbling........
Masha Filatova's routine is poetry in motion, she's incredable dancer and innovative gymnast, love her!
I love this style of gymnastics. Just beautiful! You don't see it much anymore.
I loved the late 70s early 80s innovative walkovers and handsprings inbetween the tumbling! great list! :D
Love the dancing and pointed toes of those days. It’s very much missing these days. Great selection of routines!
Gymnastics back then had so plentiful elements of creativity and artistry. Now it is based solely on hard-stricken rules.
Wow, Filatova's was definitely an unforgettable performance. Her choreo was amazing. Would haveenjoyed seeing Boguinskaya's 1988 routine, loved that one!
It's quite evident that Filatova had lots of ballet training.
Kevin Nguyen It looks like all the Russia’s did.
i miss natalia frolova, her exercise at 86 kraft event was just wow!
Frolova is my favorite of all time.
Thanks for including my all time favorite, Oksana Omeliantchik. I would also add Aurelia Dobre and Daniela Silivas from the 1987 World Champs. Another favorite for me would be Elena Shevchenko, who I think was underrated.
I'd forgotten how great a tumbler Camelia Voinea was!
Silivas for 1988 olympic floor, for sure!
Omelianchik's routine is definitely the best in gymnastics history. I'm 23 and I really feel angry because of the gymnasts now are not taking the risk to be more artistic.
I totally agree with you. I was very impressed by Oksana Omelianchik at the 1985 World Championships in Montreal.

It is impossible with the COP to have a routine like Omelianchick's. She would have to change up all her dance to get enough value (none of her dance has any real value) and it will mess up the entire construction.
@@kandragraham5769Really?
I have to throw my two cents in here and compliment you on your choices. To see 'Masha' Fliatova's floor set after so long, brought back fantastic memories... And I have to give you *huge* kudos on including Naimushina's routine. That was one hell of a fantastic display. Voinea's, Podkopayeva's, and Omelianchik's were a lot more fresh in the memory and of course excellent as well. Great top 5 picks. Peace
I now have much more respect for the gymnasts of the 20th century. I never knew that gymnasts in the 1970's did double layouts and full-ins!
Whenever I need peace of mind and perfection of movement I always see Filatova's routine. Evidence of what man is able to convey with pure emotion and movement. RESPECT!
Although I really love how powerful and dynamic current gymnastic is, I miss pretty much more artistic and dancing elements in the floor routines. Almost all floor routines nowadays look amazing but boring at the same time, as all that counts are the tumbling passes with little artistry and creativity in the routine
The problem is that the dance also counts for value. Try to add a turning switch leap to Oksana's routine and make her stop and prepare for 3 turns for bonus and tell me if she could have a flowing routine and win.
i think a lot more boring these days... the music isnt as great either, IMO. Even looking at US college gynmastics, which does have more artistry, its not as classic as these are, so it too does not compare. Id prefer the older style where artistry and expression meant as much as the skills shown. Focising only on skills and elements, and points on both floor and beam, there is no longer a measure for GRACE and EXPRESSION in gymnastics. Back when being a gtymnast was more than strength and skills ....but a bigger package
Thank you for these! They are all gorgeous! I have never seen any of them before! I adore the elegance and controlled power! Wow such mighty and courageous gymnasts! The tumbling runs were unique and awe inspiring on the old floors and the last 3 routines practically got in 4 runs or 3+ and still took our breath away with their artistry! BRAVO!
Daniela Silivas and Aurelia Dobre
You forgot Boginskaya's 1989 routine during Worlds. That routine was so gorgeous.
You really know about gymnastics. Great choices. Love this!!! thanks for posting it. :D
Lilia's foutte turns were the best here. Ugh amazing!
Uh... Nooo they absolutely are not
@@kiersontitus7322 Care you evaluate your statement? I meant her best, and for not using point shoes, I think we can say those are the best for her at least :).
@@annapavfan4680 Her fouettes had hideous stops in between them and you didn't have to wear pointe shoes to get perfect turns, you can still do them in socks
@@kiersontitus7322 But this is gymnastics, obviously they wont be spot on with all the dance and tumbling. Take it how you will.
Lilia Podpokayeva fez uma prova incomum. De todas as ginastas que nós assistimos nesse vídeo, ela foi a que me cativou.
wow, never seen the last routine before and before it started i was a bit miffed that oksana omeliantchik wasn't top FX but no matter how much i love her, that last routine was pure theatre - so graceful and the way the movement flowed fast-slow was gorgeous. i love watching all your videos you put together here! keep up the good work, please :)
I can't stop watching Omelianchik's routine! Shss amazing!
i would have added Elena Mukhinas floor, so elegant and pleasant to watch
Oksana Omelianchik and Lillia Podkopayeva are no obvious brainers. But I’m surprised a number of other choices didn’t make the cut. Daniela Salivas (1987) and Dominique Dawes (1993-1994) for amazing tumbling combinations. Svetlana Boginskya and Vanessa Atler (1998-1999) for expressive choreography. Svetlana Khorkina and Shannon Miller (1993) for beauty and artistry, Diane Dos Santos and Lavinia Milosevic for difficulty. And Kim Zmeskal And Shawn Johnson for overall entertainment factor.
Great choices!!! I would have given an honorable mention to my girl Davydova
I love 1 and 2, real pearls of ARTISTIC gymnastics.
I think Vanessa Atlers 99' US Nationals AA Floor routine is amazing, hard to beat that!!
Filatova is perfect. Floor most beatiful in life.
Podkopayeva's has long been one of my most favorite routines - her ballet form is so great in that routine and the tumbling is powerful too. Her pirouettes in the middle of the routine are as perfect as any ballerina's, just delightful to watch. Omelianchik's is light and joyful,stunningly performed, but a little too childlike for my taste, though it seems fitting since she looks like she is about twelve or thirteen.
You really liked Filatova's routine? That kind of surprises me. To me it just didn't come together with the music and the whole thing seemed heavy and slow. I could see her training and great execution, but that particular routine just left me cold, sorry to say. I had never seen Naimushina's routine before, but I thought it was absolutely delightful, beautifully choreographed and performed, less childlike, but very much like Omelianchik's, which seems to be derivative from Naimushina's stylistically - hard to pick between the two of them, really.
Voinea's "modern' dance was not something I would ordinarily have cared much for, but it was exceptionally well choreographed for the style it was, and extremely well performed also. I frankly liked it better than Filatova's (surprising myself even). I guess for some reason I just did not connect emotionally to the slower and more dramatic pace in Filatova's. All of these routines are miles above anything seen in this 21st century though! True artistic gymnastics. Thanks so much for posting this, really enjoyable!
I would respectfuly request that you find a copy of Filativa's routine where you can see more nuance, her facial expression, and all of the little flourishes and details that don't show up as well in this slightly blurry copy. Her musical interpretation is just exquisite. Each routine that she did through the years, so different one from the next, showed exceptional artistry. Just an opinion. :)
Oksana Omelianchik's routine was awesome, thanks for making me discover such a great gymnast!
I'm in agreement! You picked some wonderful ones! Not many folk remember to include Naimushina, even though her floor was so much more artistic than Davidova's.
Wow, it makes me miss gymnastics in the “old days.” 😂
No routine by the legendary 1989 Soviet team?
Interestingly enough, Voinea´s routine (the way of movement) shows some similarities with the "infamous" Zamolodchikova´s 2005 routine for which Yelena was not only harshly criticized, but almost crucified by the gymnastic community.
I would definitely add some 2000 and 2004 Olympic routines to this collection, e.g. Produnova or Cheng Fei.
Because Voinea could actually dance and do what she was trying to do. But sadly Zamolodchikova could not.
That aside though, I highly commend your suggestions of Elena Produnova and 2004 Cheng Fei.
Mukhina's 1979 world champinoship All rounds performance was also iconic..
LMAO yes, justismackenzie1. Because being beaten to death and starving herself helped LilyPod learn to be elegant and do fouettes on floor. You need to open your eyes. Yes, coaching is much safer now, but gymnastics as a whole was much safer before (without such difficult skills). Emphasis was on the execution and the elegance. Gymnastics was so much more aesthetically pleasing because of the CoP. Not because of and "drugs". BTW, they had drug tests back then too so I don't know what you mean.
@myplaylist1238 speaking of the amazing 70's and 80's gymnastics, did you know that a gymnast in the 70's did a triple twist? there's footage of it here on RUclips
I think Natalia Frolova with her 1986 rutine must be here. One of the most beautiful floor exercises of all time
This is the best routine of all time.
Omelianchik❤
i like Lilia Podkopaeva, and i think Yelena Zamolochikova should be on this video
VIKTORIA KOMOVA- LONDON 2012
Filatova, Podkopaeva, both astounding. But Podkopaeva is so unique with her double front handsprings before flipping. Nobody else does that.
Komova - London 2012 AA - the best floor routine
Komova #1 in my heart
That routine was actually MOVING. The tumbling flowed organically from the dance. Absolutely amazing.
Absolutely stunning routines. These routines should be mandatory viewing for today's so called gymnasts. The beauty, grace and artistry has been completely sacrificed to tumbling. Today's female gymnasts look like short squat men on the floor. I don't even watch gymnastics anymore - it's completely lacking. They are able to do so much more now, yet watching them compared to the gymnasts in the 70's, 80's and early 90's just seems so much less.
I eventually saw Mostepanova, her gymnastics! WOW!! I understand! I SO Understand! thank you!!
I would've added Davydova's floor,too. :-)
Hey, where did the music come from on the last one? I know it is from a ballet but I can't remember which. Omelianchik was amazing, and I've always loved Lilia. Thanks for making this!
Daniela Silivas 1987 Rotterdam-1988 Seul had the best floor routines. Plus, there were a few Dutch gymnasts (roughly 5-10 years ago) who did a lot of superb pirouettes in floor and beam.
Omelianchik=Queen
I fully agree. I think that they should raise the age limit even more and make sure that gymnasts still get periods. Who cares about better acrobatics and "body lines" if you resort to extreme measures to get them. It's kind of like models - the only ones that find bony bodies pretty are the designers themselves.
#4 is like breakdancing! LOVE IT! and omg Oksana is amazing!
Silivas will always be my favorite floor worker, but Voinea's routine was epic. Who would ever have expected an 80's era Romanian gymnast to do a brilliant breakdancing floor routine? And to imagine that the '87 team had Silivas, Voinea, Dobre...! Ah, what I'd give for gymnastics to return to the golden age!
that is the most amazing rendition of "the worm" i have ever seen
todays gymnastics SUCKS its all so boring i liked the old one!!!!!!!!!!!
Ikr
Henrieta Onody in the olimpics 1992 is missing!!!
Indeed! Missing big time!
@dmitrigarcia Yeah, that's right. Boginskaya's routines were always so unique comparing to others', especially the 1989's one. I've never seen anyone dancing or performing like her. She is the queen of the floor forever and ever. Omelianchik was amazing as well, maybe a cute style.But Boginskaya was more sexy and glamourous.
Lilia’s floor routine was like experiencing a night at the ballet. I saw this at the 1996 Olympics on tv and was in awe! Her front tumbling was perfection.
Camilia Voinea's music is so cool :P
omeliancheks floor routine is definitly the best ever
Daniela Silivas?
Her form isn’t the best during her tumbling sequences, but she makes up for it with artistry and difficulty.
Great show! I LOVED the Romanian girl. She's got the moves!
Dominique Dawes, Kim Zmeskal, Jennie Thompson (USA). If you wanna go internationally to name a few. Well Elena Produnova (RUS), Elena Zamolodchikova (RUS), Diane Dos Santos (BRA), Simona Amanar (ROM) Andreea Raducan (ROM), Viktoria Karpenko (UKR), Lilia Podkapayeva (UKR), Tatiana Gutsu (USSR) Henrietta Onodi (HUN), Oksana Omelianchik (USSR), Aurelia Dobre (ROM)
wow #4 was amazing at dancing!! And i love that she had the tumbling to back it up.
Great choices. I'm a little split on Voinea's, but there are more good things than bad in that exercise and she presents it really well. These are definitely some of my fav. I could never limit it to a top five though!
Wonderful picks!
Ludmila Turitsheva a real women.Svetlana Boginskaya the dancer and the softness and her dancing style.SvelanaKhorkina the most elegant.Carly Patterson the raw power of her legs a real american girl she was rocking!
Thanks for this. I wish people would read the title and that the ones you have picked are your favourites. If other people prefer other gymnasts then why don't they go ahead and make their own videos.
Oh! I remember where I've heard it. A very famous russian ballet choreographer used it once for a pas de deux. I thought it was from a ballet. Thanks. Beautiful song.
Elena MUKHINA era una obra de arte en movimiento en las rutinas de suelo. Expresiones delicadas y elegantes en todos sus movimientos. Única.
It's Matt Baker and he used to present Blue Peter in either the 90's or 00's :D
I love your wealth of knowledge about gymnastics. Maria Filatova was an absolute joy to watch :D
FIG should wach this!!!!
I like the boogaloo dancing with the acrobatic combo
Oksana's was superb!!!
Lilia Podpokayeva fez uma prova incomum. De todas, foi ela quem me cativou. Mais alguém do Brasil está assistindo?
Eu também achei muito expressiva a apresentação dela. A parte artística muito forte. Mas minha preferida foi Oksana Omelianchik.
Faltou Elena Davydova, Moscou 1980.
It's the first time I see Maria Filatova in 1979! Her floor routine is a piece of art! Did those 1979 world championships take place in Strasbourg, France ?
Strasbourg was '78 Worlds, I think her FX was a different piece there
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! MOST EXCELLENT WORK! IT IS A GREAT WORK TO PUT SUCH AN EXCELLENT VIDIO TOGETHER! WONDERFUL! VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! BLESSINGS!
Excellent choices! I love your 4th choices routine! It was really fun to watch :)
Gymnastics when gymnastics was gymnastics 🤸♀️
I love Naimushina's routine! love that she chooses kalinka for her music. I won't be able to choose top 5 floor routines, there are so many to choose from. btw just want to say I'm in love with ksenia afanesyeva's routine at the moment
Next time I go clubbing I'm dancing like Camelia Voinea!!
wow! voinea is a regular funky dancer. She does all those moves like the one in the streets.
Oksana !!!!!
It is great!
It is completely in agreement with my all the past favorite performances.
You are great.
Nicoleta Daniela Sofronie at Olympics 2004, team finals. My all time favorite!:-)
Great choices... Omelianchik's routine is just fabulous. Maybe I'd add to the list Daniela Silivas. She was great on the floor.
Soviets unmatched per usual
Camelia Voinea was a bad bish! Love the murmurs of awe from the audience at the end of her stunning 1st pass @ 2:06. Love that the Romanians let her explore that style - she did such an awesome job w/ it, too.
Podkopayeva was a lovely gymnast, but I would have put a FX w/ more "real", substantive choreo in my Top 5 over that "posey" routine. For ex., Boginskaya's 1988 FX or Tousek's 1999/2000 FX - & a host of others - does much more for me than Lilia's.
Lilia Podkopayeva is my #1. Love all your choices.
The last 2 were phenomenal. But one person or routine I have yet to see on the great floor routine videos, is Henrietta Onodis 1992 Paris World Championship floor final. Soo amazing. She dies at the end. hehe I have seen it on youtube. But not on the best or favorite lists. So great, She never gets her props.
Interesting top spot. Beautiful dancer. To me, Omelianchik 85 worlds is perfection, but not my list. Love the Romanian break dance!
I wish they would bring more of dance element back into routines these days. The music seemed to match the personalities of the gymnasts so well in those days and the choreography complimented the tumbling. Doesn't seem much effort put into choreography now. Seem to just focus on the tumbling. Not as entertaining. My favourite routine of those is definitely Oksana. Voinea also a favourite and Silivas along with others not on list.
You say that none of the gymnasts are suffering, but right afterwards you claim that they will be prone to even more injuries and psychological pressure. You're deluding yourself. And the gymnasts are lying to themselves too if they think it's OK to train on broken limbs and eat too little.
No one is forcing you to torture your body, so don't blame me. Instead, try to find a happy middle like Shawn Johnson did.
No they had springs by that point (although the floor was not as springy as modern ones)
i liked all of them except for the last one #1
Nice choices! Fun to watch=]
Stunning!!!!!
Filatova all the way. I would also offer Baraksanova's 1985, Tousek 1999, Mitova 1991
Oksana Omelianchik´s routine was really cool :)
That's exactly what Karolyi says. Thank God he isn't involved in any controversy.
