@@ArmantoAlex13 I do think that Simone has one of the best wolf turns. But she is more inconsistent (specially on the third turn) and because of her more powerful style it doesn’t look so fluid to me, like Urazova’s does
Владислава Уразова самая талантливая ростовская спортсменка! Самая лучшая,самая неповторимая! Ее выступления самые запоминающиеся!!! Желаю ей получить самые высокие оценки на всех соревнованиях!!!
Her ballet training shows throughout all her performances. This is what classic gymnastics should look like. Note the carriage of her arms in the ballet position of a dancer. She makes her wolf turns look effortless. Vladislava shows a great turnout when she points her toes. Not feet turned inward like some of the best power tumblers and vaulters often do. I love watching her turns and 180 degree leaps. she has great flexibility and makes it look effortless. Her tumbling passes are just as difficult as the others, but by doing them a second slower, they are exacting and you can enjoy them longer! I really look forward to see her compete in the all around competition. She is the full package in the style of Ludmilla Tourischeva.
Finally, someone who does Wolf turns properly. There should be deductions if knees aren’t touching during the rotation and another deduction if there’s arm waiving so gymnasts are forced to do them correctly.
The arm waiving is already being deducted but I do agree that not keeping the knees together should be a deduction because it will encourage gymnast to do wolf turns in the correct position and it will also help them find their centre of balance better
@@adamtak3128 She might be able to snatch a bronze on bars, if things play out just right. I definitely think she could medal on beam if she hits her routine.
@@thesovgc have you seen the crazy upgrades from gymnasts going for a bars medal? The routines I saw from all three russian medalists here looked very weak.
@@adamtak3128 you'd know better than me, I guess.. Bars are slippery, though. Routines have to be hit & Urazova is quite consistent on UB at least. No one thought Leppenec would be Olympic champion, but she is 🤷♂️.
Melnikova wont be in the All-around if Listunova hits, Melnikova is the weakest amongst the three AA russians, it will be an Uzarova-Listunova battle. She has a chance to qualify in floor finals and beam along if Gerasimova doesnt hit
@@fashionfgurl18 that’s assuming their lack of international experience won’t affect them. I think melnikova’s experience will actually help her. Either way, I can’t wait to find out.
@@ragansmithgymnastics7782 yeah. Listunova has more upgrades and thats scary to think. I think battle for russia no2 is Urazova vs Melnikova. Their streghth are so similar as well. Bars and Floor are their top 2 events.
Stunning. Even with the mistakes. I'm from the US and currently live in Germany, but I will be rooting for Russia in Tokyo this summer assuming the games happen this year.
Yea I think she performed much better in Tokyo yesterday. Too bad she didn't win a medal. All commentators from my TV station thought she was underscored on the bar. :(
Gotta say. These seniors are good but wow...the more time goes on the more I realize we were really blessed with Aliya and Komova. Not sure when we will see as strong of all-arounders again in the Russian program.
Is it me or she's like Komova and Khorki? She's quite tall and very elegant. And her wolf turns are amazing. I just hope she stays healthy bc she's capable of upgrading in every apparatus. Wishing her the best of luck, and looking forward to seeing her progress.
I was going to say she reminds me of Svetlana Bogunskia (sp?) was when she was on the Soviet Union/Unified Team. She has the elegance and grace like the Soviet gymnasts did.
wow Russia is back on the world of gymnastics!!! until the Olympics they have enough time to improved their minor errors, they are so elegant and effortless, their bodies so strong yet feminine not bulky like Americans, they look more like bodybuilders lol, most of them
Well seems u have low knowledge in gymnastics, How about Vaneesa Ferrari who won AA Gold with a fall in 2006 World Championship ? 😜. So nothing to talk about when everyone falls .
@@lilbatz not as a first year senior she couldnt 😂 pay credit where credit it due, this wouldn't been one of the highest non simone AA scores had she not fallen.
As beautiful as the Russian gymnasts are, I am afraid they won't be able to compete against the difficulty of the U.S. gymnasts. These vaults and floor routines look too simple, but nice to see the grace and artistry.
after watching so much u.s. gymnastics, other country's elite cups almost seem like NCAA to me. some u.s. elite gymnasts are just so extreme that it makes all of these inhuman athletes seem normal. obviously they aren't.
