Balance Beam Difficulty Gymnastics Montage

[@KateeAmeliaa91]

Anna Pavlova's switch ring leap has to be the best ever performed on beam. Amazing!

[@AngelicPhantom]

So many people have said it, but I'll say it again. Anna Pavlova really was the most magical gymnast to watch. Also it sucks that Gainers seem to have fallen out of style... Hardly ever see them and never to Khorkina's standard. Thanks for uploading, this was awesome to watch.

[@myekay1192]

Anna pavlova's switch split ring leap is simply perfection. its so amazing. definitely better than nastia's..!

[@ludan68]

I know that this is all about gymnastics' difficulty on beam, but I must say that this is a great montage. with great music as well!!! CONGRATULATIONS

[@briaberger]

When the Patterson is done right, it's such a beautiful skill!

[@hankm77]

fantastic video

[@MostepanovaFan]

Glad you liked it! Its Petra Matthies at the 2006 Junior US Nationals, she goes to the same gym as alicia sacramone.

[@Motorcyclegymnast]

mostepenovafan u make the best videos i ever see!

[@MostepanovaFan]

0:14 is a double turn with leg at horizontal which is an E (can't check the number right now) 0:45 is a Double Arabian (or Patterson) which is a G 3:00 is a Switch Split Ring Leap which is an E

[@MostepanovaFan]

It is actually aluminium wrapped in a suede-like covering, which gives a bit more spring the old wooden beams, but nowhere near as much as the floor. The FIG was actually considering putting springs in the ends for dismounts at one point but they decided not to.

[@rebecca4717]

love 1.36 was one of the best beam workers ever...Olessia Doudnik of Russia. Beautiful gymnastics. Only really Krasnianskaya and Liukin really match it now. ;O)

[@Minh_vn]

So incredible. Pure control.

[@MostepanovaFan]

It was Yulia Lozhecko of Russia at 2007 Worlds

[@MostepanovaFan]

It's Lift Me Up by Moby

[@MostepanovaFan]

It is already in the code and it is a D, same as the regular Onodi. Verona Van Der Leur performed this move at the 2005 and 2006 Worlds.

[@IlaNastia4ee]

Thank you so much for this montage =) I love it. Great job!!!!!!

[@MostepanovaFan]

It was a triple spin yes, by Betty Okino at the 1991 worlds

[@MostepanovaFan]

Thank you! It was Daria Bijak at the 2002 Worlds

[@MostepanovaFan]

It is Lift Me Up by Moby

[@MdrnDncr87]

aaww, i miss the awsome beam mounts, no one dose them anymore, they mostly just hop on and get all their difficulty once their on the beam

[@MostepanovaFan]

It was Aleftina Priakhina at the 1986 Chunichi Cup

[@isa1285]

Do you have the vid of Daria Bijak at the 2002 worlds, the beam excercise I mean, the dismount is great!!!! Love how the music fit the exercises!

[@MostepanovaFan]

@altairvrak It is Yulia Lozhecko of Russia at the 2007 Worlds

[@mpbeautyinsight]

Ooo, love the double arabian dismounts!

[@SilverDragon24]

2:14 is just insane!!

[@keego666]

Love this! Thanks so much for making. Whos that at 1:30?

[@EdGringo78]

Wow, this brought back some memories!! How about little Meng Fei?? I've always thought her barani on beam was beautiful. It's a shame she never made it to the Olympics, I think she could have done well there. I've always been a fan of hers while she was competing.

[@coley2319]

1:50 is Petra Matthies from the 2006 nationals.

[@garyj79]

@michelelohman - and Karpenko performed it in 1997 so certainly wasnt a case of it never being seen before 1999/2000.....

[@JoaoAlvez87]

Os melhores ME de trave são das chinesas, imbatíveis 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@tumblefan101]

lauren mitchell does such a nice 2.5 turn it tuck stand how does she do it better on beam than floor?

[@Royaazar]

dude, your right chachakid's balance beam mount montage is in it too... and no one even knows it they're like giving him complinments and everything

[@Zamolodchikovafan16]

Great montage and song! Oooo does anyone know who the gymnast at 0:52 is? She has a v similar leotard to one of mine! :-)

[@54spiritedwill54]

Great Choice of song!

[@goodyougetastar]

@fgymnastm12 Well, this was uploaded two months after the 2008 olympics, when she was still a junior, I think..

[@MostepanovaFan]

It is Sanne Wevers of the Netherlands

[@TheHorseyGymnast]

Thnx. Is she still in elite gymnastics? I was just saying she looked liike my friends Christina, but Christina does low-level compulsory. Thnx anyway!

[@deeamparo1703]

the one that Shaposhnikova did, where she leaned on the beam as her mount? what's the rating on that? :D i always liked that mount.

[@makT890]

Wait, if this uses the 2009 code of points, wasn't the triple turn in tuckstand ( Mitchell) and the Wevers (double turn with leg at horizantal) added into the code of points in 2010?

[@MadeleinePhillips666]

What?? Several Simple Arabian videos on Beam, and NONE with the creator of this skill, the amazing Ekaterina Lobaznyouk? But still is a awesome video, congrats.

[@Gymbit]

It's Annamari Maaranen from Finland starting at 0:58.

[@turbojon811]

Those aerial roundoff's (2:00) are D's, same as an aerial cartwheel... landing on one or two feet doesn't affect difficulty, only takeoff does.

[@MrRik458]

Thank you :) Do you also know what competition that was?^^

[@isa1285]

Yes, please!!!!

[@missmouse35]

can u list how much each letter is worth? like D= 0.4 (like u said above)

[@catherineb8595]

Yes, that was Chellsie Memmel doing one.

[@violet46]

Does the code of points change every year or just every quadrennium?

[@rosadaysocial]

0:27 OMG thats so great

[@Yuri92001]

@Leemazing12345 Um. ... Have you by chance checked the title?

[@23681lucky]

what's this song called i like it a lot

[@MostepanovaFan]

It was Deng Linlin of China

[@wht1t3cr4y0n]

2:10 What was Elena's dismount?

[@zephyr7wild]

who is the girl at 1.48 doing the double front?

[@MostepanovaFan]

It is a D (0.4)

[@Loranne95]

were did you get the videos of the olympics 2008?

[@Undermedveten]

I don't, sorry. But I do know that the skill is named after her (jump with half turn, to tucked salto backwards).

[@MostepanovaFan]

Elvire Teza at the 1997 Worlds

[@garyj79]

that switch ring leap (or whatever its called) by Nastia Liukin is nowhere near as good as Anna Pavlova's......Pavlovas head literally touches her toes!

[@Royaazar]

@dianajc they are both valued as D level skills

[@wildgirl10735]

wat is the move at the very end called? plz reply!

[@MsGymnast0071]

Was that a barani (sp?) at 1:20?

[@AlexCorralMexico]

I think that without doubts the most difficult skill on the beam is the TEZA 1.

[@MostepanovaFan]

Its a switch split ring leap

[@comaneci1]

thanks alot ! :)

[@guardianofthegalaxy2051]

Who is that kid doing Double Front at 1:49?

[@laydapurple]

after the olympics the COP changes so the next change is in 2013

[@Swankdor]

a double pike dismount is an E..? tot is was a D..?

[@jacoblack02]

what is the name of the song?

[@kewlioto]

it looked like a tucked full-in (same as shawn johnson)

[@guardianofthegalaxy2051]

No Kui Yuanyuan ?

[@MrRik458]

Oh wow, that's interesting :D Thanks so much for your help ^^

[@MsGymnast0071]

Who is the gymnast at 1:49?

[@Gymbit]

Oh ok, thanks. I can't believe it's not an E!

[@BlossomxJuliette]

What's the TEZA 1?

[@MostepanovaFan]

I do have the whole exercise, I can post it for you if you like

[@comaneci1]

[@wildgirl10735]

[@strawberryplur]

[@MrJST94]

[@mirkodonsanto]

No she didn't forget it... Hypolito's mount was a COMBINATION mount... not just one skill:)

[@ginastasdaelite]

lovedddd

[@Gymbit]

How about a one-handed Onodi...that must be an E. Charlotte Mackie from Canada performed this at the recent World Championships.

[@Royaazar]

[@gabriellesgirl]

They make it look so easy, don't they?

[@xinannnnnnn]

[@MostepanovaFan]

[@TheHorseyGymnast]

I just got 2:02 on FLOOR a few days ago, lol i am in such a low level. 1:50 looks like my friend Christina, but she isn't that high of a level

[@BOFGym]

@0:26 I am just in disbelief :O

[@Yuri92001]

Look I KNOW the thing at :41 is hard but it always looks kinda sloppy and weird to me.

[@Royaazar]

no, in this edition of the code of points there is no skill higher than a G.

[@AlexCorralMexico]

The skill at 1:28...

[@zouzounakiiilol]

the girl in 1.29 is amazinggggg...
