3:53 -> The best moment of synchronized swimming ever: NATALIA ISHENKO - she was the best synchronized swimmer ever. When she was there, there was glamour in the hut! It looks so simple - like she is grabbing a bun from the buffet. With her, the team was always a class above - and the judges were in awe (+ 0.1). This scene will be remembered by all connoisseurs - her most famous pose! Unrivaled to this day! Unreached!
What I love most is that this routine commands respect for synchronized swimming. Typically with even high level routines you see a lot of "that's nothing!" comments. Here there seems to be little other than praise. I love that. They were able to do an artistic routine while still showing off athleticism that few could achieve even when on land and while breathing.
I know. What I said was I liked this performance better than the one in London 2012. This is just my opinion. Obviously, both performances are excellent and unique in their own ways. Maybe, I like the music in this performance than the one in London.
By far. My FAVORITE routine in the history of synchronized swimming. Just incredible. I saw this routine before on youtube but the cameraman was being an asshole and wouldn't keep the damn thing still! So this video is much better!!
Por cierto dice la comentarista que es el mismo ejercicio de Roma 09 y no es asi, el de Roma fue con musica de Piratas del Caribe, este ejercicio se estrenó en 2010 en Budapest...
i was disappointed they used the same program as budapest, but with that, its still the most difficult program to date, just the opening alone is breathtaking and hard
dear, this is not the Russia's London 2012 performance, its the preleminary held in Shanghai.. the one they performed in London 2012 was much better than this and you'll be amazed! they also won gold for that..
