@thegreenskittle 3 года назад

great point! I didn't put it together what you said though I know how she did in all the events! Plus that AA gold :) And to think, Marta actually wanted her to be a beam and bars specialist, and Valeri had to fight for Nastia to compete in AA b/c he KNEW what his own daughter was capable of. The Liukin family has some serious "winner" genes lol.

She gets so much hate nowadays from younger fans but they can’t appreciate the elegance and perfection Nastia showcased. She was so unique and still is. We have yet to see another gymnast like her.

@nondescriptbeing5944 3 года назад

She was amazing at keeping her legs together (as odd as that sounds) on bars! a small thing that takes a lot of effort. and hyperextended knees and impeccable toepoint creates such gorgeous lines, like Komova, Pavlova, and Porgras, too.

@@VeeVe3 Khorkina is 5’5” and that’s considered almost too tall to even be a gymnast nowadays. The taller you are, the harder it is to rotate/control yourself in the air. I believe it is very unusual to be Elite level at Nastia’s height, let alone be on top of the sport. Hats off to her, huh?

If you think about it, she even incorporated her FACE in the floor routine where she always open with a powerful stare as part of the choreography. I can't think of other gymnasts that paid such extreme attention to details. I really admire her.

@spanglelime 2 года назад

I always wonder what Nastia could have done had she pursued her mother's sport. She is built for rhythmic gymnastics but her elegance and power turn her gymnastics into works of art. She's truly poetry in motion and I feel lucky I was able to watch her while she was in her prime and competing.

@catinabox3048 9 месяцев назад

I get the sense that Nastia thrives on competition and on mastering advanced technical skills. I'm not sure rhythmic gymnastics would have kept her interest. Not that rhythmic gymnastics doesn't take skill and practice, but it isn't the type of skill that gives you an adrenaline rush and keeps someone determined to tackle the next problem.

Nastia is really outstanding.I really enjoy her performance, in best traditions of Soviet classical gymnastics, with clear lines, athletism as well as artistism. Her father was also very famous athlet and talented gymnast, Valery Liukin. He was born in Kazakhstan, he represented Dinamo sport club of my home city (Alma-Ata), but later he moved to Moscow, and then to the USA with his family. It was a crazy time for former USSR (90-s).

First of all - love the slow-mo parts where we can really see the more intricate/fast spinning moves. But also, at 7:28 - does anyone know why they don't pull that blue mat closer to the low bar? It seems like it would be so easy to trip over it and ruin a dismount that would've been good otherwise like what happened at 1:40 (don't know if she fell b/c of her own mistake or b/c that mat was right there).
