2014 Nanning Worlds - Women's Team Final

[@erinjohnson1124]

I need to find more events with the Bart Conner and Amanda Borden coverage! This was beyond refreshing commentary from the both of them. Fair, positive and encouraging no matter which team they were discussing. I would LOVE for them to take over for the NBC broadcasts!

[@Tristan0712]

agree! 💟

[@deepeshmathuria]

NBC should fire Tim Daggett and keep these two.

[@joyce2624]

I just love how positive Amanda Borden is and fair. She's not like the NBC commentators that only praise the american gymnast and nitpick on the others.

[@nightswimmer99]

+Joyce Amanda reminds me of Peggy Fleming's style of skating commentary. She always pointed out the best of what there was to see in an athlete no matter their country, and was so sympathetic if things went wrong.

[@scottstrange8809]

Absolutely, I feel like BBC commentary is also really positive, but Amanda does amazing. She actually praises and doesn’t trash talk. It’s actual comments on the routines matter of fairly and really seems empathic when athletes do have a mistake

[@Lana2k6]

47:15 Bart: "Word is she can do a double-double off the balance beam." Simone Biles in 2019: "I got this."

[@jaidensakamoto4300]

I so appreciate how many routines they showed! It moves super quickly because they really packed in a TON of gymnastics into this broadcast.

[@kaylajones4356]

I LOVE these commentators, Bart Conner and Amanda Borden are better than the NBC Trio.

[@river8760]

No Tim is the absolute best! 😂

[@reclamantul]

Iordache is so supportive and positive, She had a very nice comment at the end: "we need to work harder for next year".

[@TheGymSavant]

I can't decide if that's encouraging or if it's flat out irritated with herself.

[@simplystreeptacular]

I've been saying for years that NBC should fire its entire commentating team and hire Shannon Miller, Amanda Borden, and Bridget Sloan, and this video just explains why.

[@kaylajones4356]

I agree but Sloan is competing collegiate

[@mustafina101]

Replace Bridget with Sacramone and you've got the best NBC commentators

[@kaylajones4356]

omg sacramone commentating would be the freaking best thing ever

[@simplystreeptacular]

Alas, she hasn't done any commentating - yet. But I've seen enough interviews of hers to know that she is a very intelligent, cogent, and - critically - articulate woman, much as Borden was (and still is), and she's a telecommunications major to boot. If that isn't a recipe for success, I don't know what is! :)

[@mustafina101]

Gymnasmic I found a video of Sacramone commentating Seda Tutkhalyan's AA routines at the Youth Olympics! I can't seem to find it anymore, but she always managed to get the technical information in-something Nastia can barely do!

[@ItsNotASara]

Shang Chunsong on beam ohmygod that was so perfect.

[@annapavfan4680]

My highlights of this world's... 1.Mustafina's presence overall at these championships. 2.Shang's aggresive balance beam routine and floor. 3. Iordache's excellent balance beam routine. 4.Biles not falling off the beam.

[@vegan5416]

mustafina’s presence is highlight to anyone :))

[@saragrant9749]

Am I correct in seeing that Kramarenko was there with the Russians team? I remember her in 2007-08 but didn’t realize she continued!

[@rbb.828]

I’ve noticed you on several old worlds comments and you’re honestly such a nuanced hater

[@blakegillpuente3904]

They said Vanessa Ferrari (ITA) tied for bronze with Aly Raisman (USA) in FX finals in London 2012, but it was actually Aliya Mustafina (RUS) who beat Ferrari by the tie-breaker; Raisman was very comfortably in first place with a .4 lead.

[@TinaLivesForPurple]

He also said that bulimar is the best gymnast in romania...

[@jonathantargaryen4254]

Exacto

[@HillaryHorror]

If USA, Russia, and China are going to be sharing the podium at every world event, at least one of them should wear a color other than red.

[@aladdinsmith3469]

Careful Ms.Leach we don't want to start a third world war because of the Color Red. Most flags of the countries in our world has some red in it.Some might say it stands for the blood shed becoming independent now blue is my beloved color or is it plentiful green with long gone Presidents resting in peace on the face and finally I ask who of the three U.S.,China and Russia going to change there color now we're really talking war.

December 9 must be a good birthday for vaulters. Both Maroney and Skinner share the birthday. Maroney is a year older though.

That is pretty cool tho...

[@12markito]

At 35:00 the commentators said Ferrari tied Raisman on floor exercise in London. Woah, lol didn't know Aliya changed her name. :D

[@withlove312]

Ikr? On the other hand there were so many stupid tie breakers at the Olympics, two of which involved Raisman and Aliya, that it's kind of understandable that they would get them mixed up.

[@fe-ne1ri]

withlove312 Not with floor though, Raisman had a massive 15.600 practically unheard of, to confuse that with a 14.9 is utter BS

[@CourtneeeyM]

I think it's because aly tied for third on all around she probably mixed up :)

[@MegLikesCats]

No one tied Raisman at the floor final in 2012. She got a crazy 15.6 which no one could even touch. Catalina Ponor came "close" with a 15.2. In the all-around Raisman tied with Mustafina and lost the tie-breaker. But let's be honest, when it comes to floor no one at that time could touch Aly Raisman!

[@kittykapow]

Hahaha I'm here in 2019 and I scrolled down to find this exact comment. Good on you!

[@lf546]

Shang Chunsong beam was fantastic, nailed every element (54:24 - 55:56) ♥

[@Milena-ek6gm]

the commentators are so nice and kind,I even forgot I was watching NBC😄

[@deepeshmathuria]

It's not NBC, universal sports.

[@ellamorris931]

Frags floor routine is aaaaaaaamazing!! Love the breakdancing choreography. it suits her perfectly

[@trudisify]

I just wish Bart and Amanda are the NBC commentators

[@KP-it6jt]

Shang Chunsong! Her beam was so aggressive.

[@kaylajones4356]

I know right?! Perfect!

[@annapavfan4680]

Well deserved 15.066 too.

[@myerklamb8529]

Shang's beam routine here was STELLAR

[@marissakelley6639]

As for Mustafina's beam, they're right. Beam turns are extremely difficult. I'm a high school gymnast and out of my routine, I still need my round-off. I find turns difficult on beam and they are inconsistent.

[@wayshow4]

Larisa comforting her teammates tho :S

[@aleshaj.9884]

A few things 1) everyone hating on the US needs to get a grip. Before now gymnastics was dominated by the Soviets and Romania (and everyone hated on them too) and I'm glad that the US has surpassed them. 2) Simone's legs are like tree trunks.. 3) Great gymnastics all around.. I just wish there was better choreography on FX (from everyone..)

[@marissakelley6639]

Agreed except for the comment on Simone's legs. Simone has the build of a champ and the legs of a powerhouse! GO USA AND GO SIMONE!!!

[@aleshaj.9884]

Right?! But why do you disagree? I said her legs are like tree trunks, they're so muscly.. we're basically saying the same thing!! :)

[@annapavfan4680]

For real. This sport is not staying true to it's name. No musical interpretation from most gymansts whatsoever. And most routines are compulsory like. Might as well bring back compolsories.

[@nicolachristie9498]

Thank you SO SO SO MUCH! for uploading this! hard to find it in canada

[@tackssherbo7104]

Nicky ... I know this is a very late response, but I just noticed your comment. Sporting events are not "hard to find," because they are actually BLOCKED. It most likely has all to do with restricted broadcasting rights, broadcast contracts, lost commercial revenue and/or copyrights. To my absolute fury, my cable company dumped the three Canadian channels that I loved to watch some years ago because it got into a spitting match over commercial revenue and duplicate programming. I know events are blocked because I tried accessing Olympic events through Canada (from the American side) and was told "this is not available in your country" although I COULD access the Olympic medal tally and winners' detail through that Canadian website. Anything else was off limits to me. After these Olympics were over, a poster in another location suggested people could access sporting events by using a website called "hola(dot)org." where you could access sporting events through proxy servers in other countries. I didn't try fussing with it or trying to use it yet because the Olympics were already over, but you might want to keep this in mind for other championship events. Of course, you may well get the events in other languages.

[@finfelagund]

For condensed gymnastics rewind to 54:30 (Chunsong and Fragapane back to back).

[@liukin95]

Can't believe Biles and Shang scored so similarly on beam when Biles has notable balance checks in her routine whereas Shang's was executed almost flawlessly!

[@bobtheminion188]

maybe difficulty had a play into the scores. im sure simone had a much higher d value that shang...

[@giox1981]

Craig Tilley Simone had a higher start value

[@Jordan-gg6sz]

Gowreeshthespicegirl Gymfan you didn’t even see either of their execution scores so where is that coming from lol

[@withlove312]

Thanks for uploading this, it's great to hear other perspectives in commentating (unless you're NBC).

[@ellamorris931]

How freakin gorgeous is Larissa Iordache's floor routine, i forgot how gorge the choreography was

[@beerur1122]

they speculated that Simone can upgrade her dismount on beam to a double double.. 2019 and she did :)

[@iwasborntobefly]

why do people assume the american girls aren't artistic because they have the difficulty?

[@mia-ql8ij]

you can be artistic and have difficulty.... no one assumes lol we can see that the americans have no grace

[@jojox9791]

+Hihi Kay Americans have no grace? that's BS. many are very gravceful. there is always the exception. but I believe most people say they are not "_graceful or artistic" because they do nnot train as ballerinas. russians do. Romanian s do. that just isn't enough any more with the COP. some ballet and dance is necessary but its clear that difficulty reigns. and balletic style doesn't equal artistry, contrary to popular belief. (I'm not saying that's your belief..,just popular). USA is a force to be reckoned with and just keeps getting stronger

[@svetlanaboldin8671]

Hmmm... Because they are just not artistic - as simple as this

[@Andrew-pf5fj]

Because we have eyes and can see the difference

[@candlelitdinner7483]

i love vanessa’s floor music so much

[@dobcsek]

I'd rather be watching Mustafina than Biles....Mustafina has a grace and so beautiful to watch. I felt the same with Romanians too. Americans are doing amazingly difficult things but don't find them particularly entertaining to watch (apart from Liukin back then, but she has Russian origins and it is obvious when you watch her).

[@marissakelley6639]

Biles has a strong build to her. I like that about American gymnasts. It really demonstrates power and control.

[@dobcsek]

Marissa Kelley Yes, I guess it's very subjective what we enjoy to watch, it's normal to have different opinions. I don't mind power on bars and it's a must on vault, but personally I don't enjoy power without grace on the beam. When it comes to floor, I'm still on the fence. I think for me it's about the music as well and if I don't enjoy the music at least a tiny bit, then it's a bit ruined for me.

[@marielaalvarado4793]

Unfortunately because of the new COP the only way to get high scores is to do difficult moves

[@marissakelley6639]

That's true in a way

[@trudisify]

if you mean by grace = ballet skills, then you're discriminating

[@JohnDoe-me6lh]

I don't know why Amanda is not on NBC. Nastia needs practice to be on reg programming.

[@sherleybozieux]

[@wendyw651]

As boring as it could get to watch Simone winning everything in sight for three years, I'm glad she made it to the olympics and kicked ass and took names. It would have been cruel to be this good two years out from the olympics and not be on form for the games.

She really was. Unfortunately, come 2016 I had a feeling she would be an alternate and not a member of the competition team. Her bars needed upgrading but her back wouldn’t allow it. Madison had the equal highest SV in the world, making her the most likely choice- and she medaled for it. Ashton might have made the event final but would not have medaled sadly. Injuries were definitely her curse.
