[@byaneji]

I love Nastias fierce aggressive attitude love the competitiveness !!!

[@alexkaitlinthomas]

Or is it just rudeness and disrespect?

[@elyselane2447]

Awesome competition idea for this sport! they shouldn't have the audience vote though.

[@jardelrodrigues6808]

I dont understand the ub. J Lopez was marvelous, so much more difficult sooooo much... and perfect. Wheres is the point? I was loving this until it happens :/

[@_padfoot]

that one was crazy to me.

[@JYoder]

Competition is somewhat bias. Team World should have one.

[@ArleneHJ]

I'm horrified at Ms Liukin's lack of professionalism and outright snarkiness at Ms Boguinskaia even in a playful setting such as this. She needs to take it down 18 notches.

[@chrissyjoy08]

What I love seeing are 1) the awesome skills, of course!, and 2) the way the athletes from team world and team usa congratulate each other and cheer for a job well done, no matter who did it!!!

[@_bunnyhop]

And frustrating! You're trying to get a skill for like weeks, and he comes in, 20 minutes later he's doing it XD

[@mungoclarkson]

Shayla was a lovely beam worker back in the day, but the idea of her beating Catalina Ponor is just hilarious. Ponor is a goddess on beam (not to mention floor ... and frankly she's no slouch on vault either).

[@dmarquel14]

In Nastia's defense that was clearly a deltchev and Team World was trying to down play in the skill

[@lauragatehouse7935]

bias audience. refs need to do the judging not the audience!! Ponor way better on beam. more fluid.

[@mgifordg]

American audience voting??? LOL Bias! No Russian, No Chinese, No Japanese on Team world?? I dare USA to just try challenging Team Japan

[@charlottesommer2210]

+Marvin Giford Gadiana Yeah. Immagine if Kohei was on team world.

[@tristanhnl]

+Charlotte Sommer, imagine if Simone Biles or Ally Raisman were on Team USA. They would clinch beam and single rail for sure. Plus Japan is strong on the men's side, particularly Kohei. The women are quite average. Advantage USA.

[@dmarquel14]

While Japan's men could edge USA, the USA women could destroy Japan's best female gymnast.

[@kameroncoleman9293]

Simone would have thrown her Moors on floor, LOL!

[@MyFiveSeconds]

Simone doesn't do a Morrs (yet). A moors is a double double layed out, she does a double double tuck (Silivas), a double layout full (Chusovitina) and a double layout half out (Biles). The only gymnast except Victoria Moors to ever preform a Moors in competition is MyKayla Skinner. Also, since this (frankly shitshow) format is co-ed, a guy could have countered since a double double layout is only an E skill in MAG.

[@tedsler]

It was soo great to see Boginskaya being so smiley and passionate!

[@MultiBailey99]

Everybody is talking about nastia being mean but honestly she was doing her job ad an acting coach. Each teams coach wants to fight for the win just as much as the gymnasts do. We saw that with the petition thing and we saw it when nastia fought for a skill.

[@BEKA531]

Agree, especially since they were basing their judging solely on amplitude, not landings or even execution.

[@Theosbroker]

Brandon Wynn Vs Eleftherios is the best battle in the rings! Monsters of the Rings!

[@gabriellew-s744]

Every morning when I wake up Nastia is the first thing I c then when I go to my gym (where I spend 6 hours a day trainig for the olympics) I also see her now I'm frowing darts at her coz I didn't know wat to do with my poster!

[@CodySDivineCreators]

Will there be another one? I don't think they even had one in 2014...

[@trodairebeag]

For the last competition...the USA should've used their wildcard and pulled Chellsie Memmel!!! She competed a jam to handstand her whole career

[@MrJpman2]

I agree about the judges thing, but the slow motion replay idk because they don't do it in actual gymnastics competition unless a protest is filed, like it was for catalina and shayla

[@77lalalove]

where is the part everyone is complaining about with nastia and svetlana?

[@elmotociclista9296]

yeah they all were having so much fun! you don't see that in competition very often, specially in wag

[@marekdorman5244]

Agreed. I don't understand why they didn't do the same skills on top of it.

[@elmotociclista9296]

yeah! and he's having so much fun! it must be awesome to train with him

[@DEEZYtaughtme1]

It's not that serious ppl.....This was the first Pro gym challenge and it is gonna have kinks but there were plenty of times where the "biased" judges went in favor of the world team. And how is the American Cup biased when plenty of other countries competitors have dominated it and won. On another note, I do think the audience voting was definitely unfair to the world team.

[@RieLovesVballll]

Also what I don't understand, for the girls, Floor, vault, beam, they have to do the exact same skill as their opponent. But on high bar they can do a different release? Doesnt that eliminate the ability to do skills which you know the other team cant do? Wheres the fun in that?

[@angelicagymnastics]

Appreciation for all the skills. But I wanted Worlds team to win

[@MrJpman2]

IT WAS A DELTCHEV!

[@_bunnyhop]

Maybe..... it's possibly the 5 skills including a low bar trainsition...... (Kat Ding did a Tkachev, not a jaeger ;) )

[@TheKristen8888]

this is an example to why most of the world finds americans arrogant.. plus it was held in the US... obviously they were gonna win all the ties, I screamed at my tv when Worley beat Ponor... thank god for that protest

[@isabelmegymnast]

Sometimes Us should've won instead of World & World should've won instead of the US. But This is for fun!! People smile if they mess up or lose!!

[@elmotociclista9296]

geez! lol everyone was chilling... even me while commentin' this one, you should chill too

[@garyjshaw6754]

Why are they allowed to try it again?? What the fuck is the point in that? You don't get second chances anywhere else.

[@iloveyouforeve0213]

+Gary J Shaw Because this is a fun event, not a real competition.

[@candycoatedoom]

That point on beam should not have gone to Shayla.

[@TheChels54]

I'm pretty sure both Teams went into it knowing it was pretty biased. You'd be stupid to think that it wasn't. Lower your expectations of the politics in gymnastics

[@dmarquel14]

That was clearly not a gienger

[@kameroncoleman9293]

I'm laughing. Nastia did one of the best geingers EVER. Bogi was too tall to even attempt them lol. Then Svetlana's team is like "No, it wasn't no deltchev!" Look up deltchev, then Bogi with her Russian accent "So explain what deltchev is." I'm over here like "NO! It's "Explain WHAT a deltchev is!" I've been saying Deltchev too much lmao.

[@ZachWendland]

The same could be said for rings, there isn't much "fun" stuff there either.

[@jaszacdan]

Relentless domination?? what are you talking about?! they won by one point and a couple of unfair rules... USA gymnasts are great, however, there were some points that should´ve gone for Team World instead.

[@amall30am]

omg seriously?! they gave the point to shayla? ridiculous

[@alexkaitlinthomas]

This would be good if it wasn't an American TV production. Way too biased and Involving the audience is nonsense when they are all American! No other country would even dream of having that aspect but Americans can be so Arrogant and entitled. It's nonsense to put women and men up against each other in the tumbling and vault too. Chuso did an amazing vault but of course a guy (even non-elite) can do it better. This was a great idea spoiled by American TV producers. And Nastia is just rude. She was vile and dismissive in the beam section too. Yes be competitive but no need for rudeness. I'm sure she was telling Shayla off for losing beam until she noticed the camera was on her and suddenly said 'doesn't matter! Great Job!' - just wow.

[@isabelmegymnast]

they changed it though

[@specoppronto7284]

Team world won that rope climb

[@CoachJulie193]

There's no way shayla would ever beat ponor that was complete and utter bs.

[@SpicyDolphin24]

I still think team world won the rope climb

[@saravirginia3722]

I don't understand. Audience vote? but their american so.... really I don't understand this competition.

[@MrAlex03061996]

It's ridiculous to put on audience vote with usa audience

[@hobbojoe097]

or al trautwig.

[@DominicHook]

Why bother making this project if your gonna rig it. Wo USA won? Didn't expect that! (sarcasim)

[@dmarquel14]

The international haters are hilarious in the comments

[@UltimateBacon64]

This was hilarious. Nastia's hair flips and yelling "THAT WAS A DELTCHEV!" It's so biased towards the Americans though.

[@TheGymnastic101]

rope climb was way unfair

[@rolandbaum4877]

TheGymnastic101 the whole Thing was pretty unfair. How can a country's team compete at the same level as the rest of the world? Answer: B Gymnasts in the world team

[@bboyflozznelson1369]

team world was better to me the rope climb was a bias thief

[@AnnMarieOMG]

Really liked the idea of the competition but in all fairness, Team World had no chance when it came down to the audience voting, even though they were often clearly better than the US.

[@zpal24]

Nastia argues like a highschool girl! Annoyed! I love her gymnastics, can't listen to her talk! Sry

[@charlottesommer2210]

It is ridiculous that the AMERICAN audience is voting… really?

[@taylorburtis]

it wasn’t just an American audience, are you for real? 😂😂😂

[@tix5094]

team world was better to me

[@mikaelbjors938]

Of course USA wins the ties, which country are they in? Right... USA

[@kameroncoleman9293]

They should've done it somewhere else because team world was from well, anywhere.

[@hellomynameisjinggy]

definitely cool concept for an annual competition.. just needs to tweak some things (letting the audience vote definitely has to go!) but if they didn't have USA win .. they wouldn't be able to air it haha

[@RieLovesVballll]

Seriously. I can think about 5 points that should have gone to team World. When Worley beat Ponor on beam, I almost broke the tv. THANK GOD they protested. Absolutely ridiculous.

[@DEEZYtaughtme1]

i like Nastia as a coach she not taking no bull on these calls!

[@owenwendler5906]

Brandon wynn vs eleftherios petrounias on rings brandon should have won , he held the multis for 6 seconds and did a walk thing and held the iron cross for 10 eleftherios held the multis for 6 without the walk but the cross for 5 so what if he did a head nod P.S brandon also turned sideways the cross

[@ItsNotASara]

American commentators/hosts are so rude. And the audience is biased, obviously, America is a nationalistic country. I love the idea of the Pro Gymnastics Challenge, but I do think it should be held in a different country, take Australia.

[@louisbrunnen2626]

Team world should have won the rope climb!!

[@unmeibushido]

This was a really fun watch. However, tie-breakers should not go to the audience. Otherwise, this was hilarious, especially seeing Oksana and Nathan out there and the guys trying moves they haven't done in competition.

[@marloesss10]

I totally agree with you. Catalina Ponor should have won that audience text vote on beam, she did it perfect and made it look easy.

[@Roosyer]

People here in the comments are so butthurt. Relax everybody, this is just for fun. R-e-l-a-x

[@kungfuman82]

But… but I have SO MUCH HATE and I have to let it out somewhere!… :-P

[@dmarquel14]

But seriously, Nastia only did what any coach would do. She defended her team

[@RieLovesVballll]

Ill say it one last time, this competition screams American cup. American Audience, American soil, Better American athletes, and No language barriers! Brandon Wynn clearly let go of the rope with two hands at the end( not allowed) but they still won the point? Like what is that? I feel bad for team world...They had no chance.

[@MooseyBA]

jeez, having an audience vote when the event is hosted in the US basically hands them the points!! What a stupid rule.

[@emma2710gymnastics]

Nastia liukin really didn't endear herself to me during this, seems far too over-competitive, and a quite nasty!

[@MeggeyMouse]

Maybe we should back off on all the Nastia hate, I mean let's be real here... If the coach on the other team was trying to call a move what it wasn't, we'd all probably be a little frustrated. Breaking news: humans get a bit edgy in a time of competition.

[@unevercalled]

This all fun etc but it's just another competition where USA wants to pretend they're better than the rest of the world through biased judging. *coughs* American Cup

[@melanywhite3298]

seriously did they really think the audience would vote for team world?! Next time please mix the teams. It will be better!

[@hellopaolo]

Catalina’s clean to the tea plus she actually did a complete vertical handstand. Worley’s was only a split.

[@onebluebubble]

also I think the double point thing is very unfair when it is the second person preforming

[@ForTheLoveOfNevis]

This competition is a perfect example of why the code of points exists

[@marigam]

They should do something about evening out the audience. Next year please?

[@MrJpman2]

people are taking this way too seriously

[@george39821]

I think it's unfair, to put b or c class gymnasts with olympic champions.. from a long time ago.. with the best of the Us has to offer..

[@AlyaralovaFan]

The world team should have won the rope climbing challenge. Obviously, the gymnast from team USA dropped to the floor which is not allowed. But whatever, with an American crowd there, it's expected for team USA to get every single audience text vote.

[@isabelmegymnast]

if your American then you should pay attention cuz she was one of the best US gymnasts years ago and if your not American then you dont even know her too good but they ended up giving the point to Catalina

[@TsubasaDreams]

Oksana's jam is so smooth! Smoother than Memmel's. Interesting that they don't have pommel horse for the men... but I guess we can't risk the USA losing points on pommels haha

[@TsubasaDreams]

They definitely need a better mix of American and non-American judges. Also maybe some sort of slow-motion replay or some type of review or challenge thing like in tennis

[@_padfoot]

Where was Chellsie Memmel to attempt the jam against Chuso? I guess she couldnt do the double tuck full? Haha this was fun/funny to watch

[@alexpierre7350]

I realise this was a month ago but it wasn't aired on tv outside the USA I just think this was done to humor American pride and make them feel superior honestly unless team world do something majorly superior and the USA can't match it or I has a obv mistake team world could not win it and if it came to a tie they had no chance. Kinda sad because there's amazing gymnasts on team world

[@saezvirginia4575]

Well, this is a TV show, not a challenge. I mean, everything has been "screenplayed" for a US audience. I just wonder how the guys who created this TV concept didn't think that it would be spread later on the Internet, like everything that exists, and that the whole world could watch it! Nowadays the producers should have to think about the Internet-Factor!

[@sopranomegs]

Not as exciting as I thought it would be. I think a North/South American Team against Europe/Asia would make more sense. Definitely more fair seeing as it's held in the US...just my opinion... AND Nastia needs to chillax a bit! Had lots of respect for this girl, but lately it's dwindling!

[@RigiLiquid945]

Team U Cheat A. Right at the beginning, the last American let go of the rope and fell to the bottom. That should have disqualified him, so Team World won that event. That's where I stopped watching since the officiating is biased.

[@unevercalled]

I really respect Boginskaya for her leadership qualities though. She fought as hard as she could for those athletes. There were several times when team world should have been given the point. It was a tad confusing towards the end.

[@Steffiiiiii96]

I think this challenge is pretty funny to watch but it isn't fair at all for team world. The audience decisions make no sense, everybody knows that the american audience will vote for team USA...... Thanks a lot for uploading this :D

[@yorkchender]

they need to get rid of the double down and the audience voting. The double down because it essentially just lets you warm up a skill, and the audience voting because it clearly leans towards the home team.

[@amall30am]

world won, if this compitition was fair and square, world won, no doubt about it! next year i hope its held somewhere other then the us! i've never been so disgusted watching a sporting event in my life!

[@gillianbaybaii]

I think the commentator said it was 5 skills on the uneven bars, the only similarity was the jaeger I think so might've just been throw 5 skills including a low bar transition?

[@MissLilRedRooster]

Okay, the first two rounds of this thing weren't bad. Overdone, sure, but whatever. This part just came off as.. Whiny. Also overdone, but completely whiny.

[@Macmannn]

This is bullshit.. of course an American audience and American judges are going to side with their own... plus Nastia had the claws out! rawr!

[@marloesss10]

The idea of this challenge is fun, but it makes me angry that team usa will always win audience vote. team world should have won Rope Climb

[@kingalyssa]

does anyone know why team world took possession of offense after brie olson's turn when team world forfeited? (with nathan's sequence)

[@onebluebubble]

the rope climbing was wrongly judged. the Usa dude let go before. but it'll always go to the us because the us are overrated.

[@elmotociclista9296]

everyone seemed nice... everyone but nastia, like come on! it was a game! I'm sure the winning team didn't earn anything but joy

[@_bunnyhop]

Wait.... if the audience picked a skill..... then what was that skill on uneven bars...? It was 2 totally different routines!

[@sdspeedstacking]

I feel like the world team didn't choose the best. They were probably just handed a team instead of being able to choose.
