Aliya Mustafina - Uneven Bars - 2011 AT&T American Cup

[@JimmyZoole]

This is just one of those routines that I HAVE to watch over and over, pretty much every time it comes up on the "watch it again" section of KZbin.

Funny thing is, as good as this was her routine in London was so much better!!

[@baileykurlov5110]

Same!! Mustafina is just different in bars

[@lizziewtafan]

She's simply one of the greatest athletes in history

[@slj40000]

the Tkatchev to Pak to Stalder is literally my favorite combination ever. It flows so perfectly when she does it and looks GORGEOUS

[@marcocaputo6450]

She's a superstar. The fluidity and the style are outstanding. I find simply amazing how on top of that well choreographed routine, she closes with her signature dismount. I'm always speechless about the quality of her work on bars. One of the greatest champions in gymnastics history, period.

[@natalietaylor8417]

I love that HB to LB transition. Really, I do. It's the most beautiful transition out of a Pak I've ever seen.

[@PhenixJoe]

As at an American, I have to say that I am proud to hear such a warm, loud reaction for a forgeign athlete who posed the greatest threat to their own’s victory. I think it speaks to our nature. We get a lot of flack but this is us more than anything.

[@Andrew-pf5fj]

We also rig the competition to make sure she doesn't beat our own when she clearly should have so give and take :/

[@joychuasihan12]

@@Andrew-pf5fj this competition was such a scam. wieber should have never been allowed to compete her but she was. she should have competed unofficially like gabby in 2012, somehow the rules didn't apply to her.

[@saragrant9749]

As amazing as her bars were in 2010-2011, I feel like they got just so much more incredible after the knee injury. The time she had to be able to perfect this apparatus just made them a masterpiece.

[@Caffeinebreak]

Aliya reminds me a little of Lilia Podkopayeva as a gymnast: athletic but elegant and strong on all four apparatus with no real weakness.

[@sireligatu3137]

I love her... very graceful and elegant on this apparatus

[@is0lexisme]

[@sebasrm1]

Wonderful!!

[@saqua608]

ummmm mustafina > liukin on bars. The only thing that is comprable are the lines are they are born with that. They both get great height but mustafina has infinitely better form

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

Yes and no. In a lot of cases i disagree.

[@juanfranciscogarza2180]

TheNonMakeupGuru Mustafina destroys Liukin in bars, her two gold Olympic medals talks for her.

[@shushunovafan4301]

Liukins dismount is an automatic disqualification for her being in the conversation of a bars great. Mustafina kills her.

[@lanhuong-xo7ec]

That's why she doesn't compete after 2009

[@hannibaljustincase9985]

I mean, they both represent significantly different styles, I don't think you can compare them

@legalglitz Those are big words. But Mustafina is the world silver medalist on bars.

[@LCAmarkymark]

WTF are you talking about? NBC loves Mustafina. After the american gymnast Mustafina was covered the most after that and then Ponor. For people out of the US? What did they say in this video that was terrible? Elfi and Al were rooting for Mustafina in bars final after Douglas had a mistake. It's a US station of course they are going to take a side lol. But they are very nice to Mustafina more so than some americans. Controversy of Crying? Are you talking about Weiber?

[@auspicious93]

Thank you for pointing that out. It bugs me to no end when people say NBC commentators are biased towards the Americans. They were RAVING about Aliyah here.

[@alessia294]

Idk i may be the only one but the commentators to me sounded all like "yeah we must love her but we're not trying all that much"

[@JimmyZoole]

That doesn't even make sense. It's so annoying how hard everyone on KZbin tries to make the commentators out to be monsters, They were raving over her.

Nobody can deny how baised the Olympics judges were towards to American team. It was outrageous.

[@sahpire75]

Marc Genul the American AND Russian teams were both excellent work

[@jgsh8062]

Well the Russians did kind of implode in the team finals to be fair

[@bluepanther1013]

How were they biased? Aliya beat an American out for the bronze on floor. Aliya also beat an American out for the bronze in the all around. The second one was a tie, so the judges could've just given the American an extra point in execution if they were actually biased.

[@falpalemily]

Whoa...

[@ohheydarciemae1121]

was her dismount a double twist double flip? As you can probably tell, I have never done gymnastics so I don't know the terminology. But I do love the sport

[@ShawnVikaKomova2012]

@Stonymypony Katelyn Ohashi will. And Musty's better on bars than Nastia ever could dream of being.

[@ShawnVikaKomova2012]

@gymnastagirl141009 I don't hate Nastia at all? I'm not a fan of her bars or floor from 08. I absolutely LOVED her in 05! She was my current favorite back then! I said Aliya's 3 1/2 was much better than Nastia's. That's practically a fact! Nastia never competed a quad twist, even in a small meet. She never got it around. That's understandable. Haha, Patricia Moreno of Spain was attempting quads just months before Nastia. Research first, please. "Just stop"? Umm, okay?

[@owenweikert7978]

She easily beats Jordan

[@crazyfishlegs]

Her bars are way better then shawns were in '08. Why does shawn get a 16.000 When Aliya is way better?

[@jgsh8062]

In 2008 difficulty scores were way higher because 10 elements were counted in difficulty scores, however from 2009 onwards they changed this to only 8

[@iHaTeSwEeTtEa]

she should have won this! sorry i love jordyn but she was better!

[@dianarusnov292]

Except she has beaten Simone. Particularly on this apparatus, Simone isn't even in the Uneven Bars discussion. She's also the 2013 world champion on balance beam, where Simone got Bronze.
