[@Maddyskyfall95]

Ahh she's perfect

@guiy16 Chaschina is my favourite gymnast,but such gymnasts like Kabaeva born once in 100 years,she's an icon,no matter what you and others who envy think.This is ugly...that is ugly...you can do it better? Who are you to judge them?Everything you think is just your personal point of view,as for me,I'd give gold all of them,cause ALL these girls deserve it as they are overloaded.

[@dancingwithoutwords]

I hope she get better music for her future routines....I love her but.....country side????

[@ProudRussinSoul]

@guiy16 you are not a specialist in gymnastics to judge Kanaeva or Viner.I'm absolutely sure if Kanaeva wasn't russian,you'd not say any word against her.When Bessonova did primitive mistakes in OG nobody wanted to notice them.I think you all just envy because russians are the best in gymnastics.

[@ProudRussinSoul]

@guiy16 it's just your personal meaning,you are not professional to judge who deserves gold medal.Kanaeva's level is unachievable for many russian gymnasts too.Our school of RG is the best,so stop envy,russian gymnasts are the best ;)))

[@ProudRussinSoul]

@guiy16 who cares what you enjoy?))) It's a sport,not a circus.One mistake and no medal,so...Russian gymnasts and coaches are the best in the world.

[@atomicsamart]

Compare to Kanaeva as the same age Melitina is better
