Большое спасибо за возможность оказаться в 80-х на соревнованиях великих гимнасток. Как несправедливо рано ушла из жизни Елена Шушунова.

[@cienciandre]

9:09 This back to back pass impresses me everytime. Elena tumbles into a half a twist, 1.5 flip salto in sideways straddled position landing into a rollout, and then immediately tumbles back including a knee handspring and finishing with a handspring + full. That is insane

[@Candlewait]

Another fantastic video! If Silivas had not shown the double double in team comps with stumble, but rather a full in clean as she showed here, she would have won, with the carry over. 10 in compulsory floor as well, I think Shush only (only!) managed 9.90. I always thought Silivas had the better line on bars, but slightly flat in her deltchev and her geinger, in comparison to Shushunova, whose releases were top drawer difficulty and with excellent amplitude, as well as her full in dismount which was much harder than the shoot front half shown by Silivas (although on this occasion, Silivas nailed the landing while Shushunova had that hop). Silivas was an absolutely wonderful gymnast, one of my favourites. Worthy European champion in 1987, when she taught everyone a lesson! Her joy and expression, musicality and dance, almost flawless technique and consistency, her originality was something special. A worthy adversary to Shushunova, and pushed her hard every step. Shushunova also was a truly special gymnast - without the typical 'grace' of the other Soviet gymnasts of her era, but supremely powerful, unbelievably able and talented vaulter, and showing original, unusual and difficult elements on all apparatus, from her tkatchev variation on the bars, to her Tong Fei arabian roll out on the floor. She also showed incredible longevity to consistently make the incredibly deep Soviet team over 4 or 5 years in the mid 1980s, no mean feat. I would have had a tie for the gold medal, honestly. Both were worthy winners, and (as with Miller and Gutsu), a case can be made for either to have won outright.

[@traiantraicu2255]

But what was Nelly Kim doing in the jury with at least 2 Soviet gymnasts in the final?! Was that fair? During the 80s and afterwards, this lady repeatedly underscored Romanian gymnasts to the benefit of Soviet and, afterwards, Russian athletes. Her contribution to Shushunova's and Soviet gold medals in Seoul - and not only - is undeniable.

i couldn't agree more with what you said above - what if ... i was a budding gymnast at the time and this was the most AWESOME Olympics ever ... one got a 10, the other did, one after each other, there has never been nor will there ever be another gymnastics final like this one. Given i was a young teen, i was rooting for daniela, to me, aged 14, yelena may as ell have been in her 60s lol. Its only been since i have got a lot older that I've been able to see Yelen'a ARTISTRY on floor, as to how incredible that was. i can also say i have never sine seen anyone who comes close to teh expression she does in her optional floor routine ... not even svetlana bouganskya, and that is saying something!!!! sadly, with the change of scoring, the artistry on floor has been lost. its more about skills, which is exciting, but its also meant a huge loss in terms of how beautiful floor routines used to be...

[@adrib08]

[@mimisor66]

[@gabriellaama3325]

Regardless who won, both are amazing gymnasts. However, I prefer Daniella Silivas. In my opinion she’s the better gymnast all around. She’s more beautiful to watch and is the first women to preform certain skills that others hadn’t been able to do in her day. Elena did a great vault tho but the score of 9.8 for Silivas is way too low.

[@carolebrown2621]

Silivas got 9.95 on vault, which is in fact too high for her. The 9.8 was the score of one judge which was thrown out. Ironically that is more in line with what she dserves than her actual 9.95 on vault as she is not a good vaulter, her huge vault scores are by her name alone.

[@ellaapostol1762]

Daniela Silivas is the best!

[@dougierichardson484]

Every judge should have given Silivas 9.8 or lower on vault. She is a crummy vaulter, and her vault scores are entirely by her name.

[@beadybaby]

I wonder what Shushunova said to Silivas on her way to the beam...also, the comment that judges are looking for original elements (on the beam), seems to have gone by the wayside with the new scoring system, since original elements have to go thru the competition process to be recognized.

[@linkin20la]

That's not what they mean by original elements. In the code of points back in the day they had a section on originality, it was defined as such "A thing is original, if it can serve as an example without having had a model. Referring to artistic gymnastics, we speak of Originality, if new movement forms or newly styled exercise parts or connections are performed, which go beyond the frame of what is cosidered as known, traditional, or classical." and virtuosity was defined is "skillful, complete command of the technique of gymnastic elemens. Based upon this bonus points for Virtuosity will only be given, if a nearly faultless presentation would be performed." That was quoted from the 1985-88 code of points. The code also mentions that a new skill must be submitted three months before the competition or on the arrival to the competition with technical description and drawings/illustrations. The gymnast that submits it gets a .20 originator bonus until another gymnast performs said skill.

Yo creo que conforme pasan los años más grandes nos parecen las 2.

Ambas lo pelearon y Silivas pese a no conseguirlo ha pasado a la historia como una grande. Elena se fue demasiado pronto, hubiera estado bien reunirlas a las 2 tantos años después y que comentaran esa competición...entonces la rivalidad era máxima casi una cuestión de estado, hoy se habrían reído de eso.

[@mrparts]

Nice recount... but yes, even Silivas acknowledges that it was the terrible decision by the Romanian coaches to do the double double on floor that led to the silver medal. She had never competed that element before and to throw it in team prelims in this era where all scores counted was a very bad move.

[@thesovgc]

@@nabojsa She could have done it in Finals. I'm sure she probably would have AA gold than the FX one, and probably would have won FX anyway.

[@lifeandstylewiththedivas4688]

Silivas was the most technically sound and consistent, overall gymnast of her era. Her form and precision was only ever matched by Aurelia Dobre, and that was for only one competitive season. And it's true that the double-double is what likely cost her that medal. But I often think about how the Romanian coaches falsified her age for '85 Worlds. Similarly, Szabo's age had been falsified at '81 Worlds. Bothe were heavy favorites for the AA gold at their respective Olympics and subsequent World Championships. I often wonder if it was karma or if that history played a part in the judging back then.

I'm not sure why they awarded her vault a perfect 10, given the feet apart and small hop back she took. There were also a lot of sketchy perfect 10s in the '88 Olympics.
