Acrobatic Gymnastics World Championships 2010 - Russia Women's Group 1st place

I decided to post this video after many comments on the 3rd place trio from Ukraine. Many said "how could anyone be better than the Ukraine's routine???!!"
As with any judged sport, many factors go into the score. In Acrobatic Gymnastics, there are categories for difficulty, execution, and artistry. You can score up to 10 in each ( and sometimes more in difficulty) totaling up to 30. I really loved the originality of the Ukraine trio, but there is no denying that this trio have little to no deductions and flies really high! They were on top of the podium at the end.

[@ralucagymnast]

For me it was the middle balance at 1:16 which clinched them the first place, and that INCREDIBLE triple at the start, and the poise, and the grace, and the strength of the base....damn it, EVERYTHING was impossibly brilliant,

[@kevivni]

1:16, HOW IS THAT EVEN POSIBLE?

[@marinaart2856]

***** That's impossible! That's why they've won!

[@lori4494]

[@derekcarter5409]

It was at 1:13

[@gramo63]

[@tumblintwinstarz2506]

How did they get a 9.5? That was perfect. I never understood the scoring of gymnastics

[@raindownonme21]

Marsha Browne one word: politics

[@alexandruspiridon4960]

raindownonme21 it is not politics, just because you young minds are warped by different tv shows on what quality is, it doesn't mean that it was that good. to me it looked more like an audition for SYTYCD.

[@raindownonme21]

To some degree all sports that require judging are affected by politics. I believe certain figure skating events are notorious for this, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist in other places in different degrees. I'm sorry sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet (I really did mean it more as a joke than an actual serious response), but that doesn't give you the right to start making condescending assumptions. And excuse me? My 'young mind' is 'warped by tv'? Fuck you - just because old farts think they know better than other generations, doesn't mean it's true.

[@brus1368]

raindownonme21 "...just because old farts think they know better..." Wow. You were doing so well and then you lowered yourself to THIS level. Fuck you for your bigotry.

[@goblue562]

So... Tell me again why people are ooohing and ahhing over Jean Claude Van Damm's spread legged splits in the dumb Volvo commercial?

[@orszag572]

Probably because he is a 53 years old, heavily built man. Not a 16 years old gymnast.

[@goblue562]

This is one reason why I don't like the written word.. People miss 'tongue in cheek' tone. Btw, Van Damme is a twirp, hardly a 'heavily built man'.

[@Blaisem]

goblue562 I'm more impressed by the drivers. Van Damme mostly had to do a split and hold himself steady. The drivers...they had to pull apart at exactly the same pace, accelerate at the same pace, and separate to the exact correct distance, otherwise we would have had Jean Claude van Dammit I Fell.

[@StriderCX]

He's 53. And if he screwed up the Volvo trick, he'd end up under the tire of a 5 tonne bus, not on a padded cushiony surface.

BEST SPORT IN THE WORLD, AND OBVIOUSLY THE PARTICIPANTS ARE IN THE BEST SHAPE OF ANY SPORT, BAR NONE !!! I ALSO THINK THIS BRITISH ANNOUNCER IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD TOO - LOVE THE GUY AND I HAVE ENJOYED HIS WORK ON MANY VIDEOS HERE ON KZbin !!! ANY ONE KNOW HIS NAME, I'M CURIOUS WHO HE IS...

[@kungfumasterdave]

For everyone that is searching for this song it is: Петр Дранга - bepo Пётр Дранга - веро (Official music video)

[@trentrogerss]

The reason the execution score isn’t ten is because of the first balance skill. During the top’s press (up and down) one leg was slightly above the other, and then transitioning into the second balance hold, her straddle was quite low. There also may have been a small height deduction because the top was too small compared to the bases.

[@MelissaRae1975]

I have a question... I MEAN NO disrespect to traditional gymnasts. I have seem tons of these teams and everone of them are amazing! Normally no hesitations, solid as a rock and no wobbles. Why cant Gymnasts do the same thing? When you watch tratitional gymnastics you see so much wobbling and checks. I wonder if these groups could easily transition to gymnastics ???

[@michellekosek1721]

They're two different sports - what you see here are tricks. They're done slowly and deliberately, and none of the tricks are done while moving about. That's why they look more solidly performed.

[@rebeccastewart9521]

I don't understand what you mean. There is no "traditional" gymnastics there's just different types. These girls are ALREADY gymnasts so why are you asking if they would be able to do gymnastics?

[@janekimmy6579]

Well these are champions, the gold medalists for gymnastics are just as solid. Also, the girls who are flying high in team efforts receive a lot of support from the bases. With gymnasts on vault or beam, they have to support themselves and propel themselves with their tricks so it requires more strength. Not saying that these girls don't use strength because they definitely do, just saying that the technique and things are different.

[@aleksabradic6607]

If there wasn't for this commentator, this would be perfect clip. What a flexibility !

[@JoMulhollandisOzcloggie]

What incredible reactions to this! Yes. I'm not sure if it improves our lives but I find it to be VERY clever!!!

[@stop0being0a0pima]

By 1:13, I understood why they beat Ukraine... still don't know how the British won 2nd though

[@ViXoZuDo]

I'm almost sure that the 1:52 Ukraine's jump is the reason... They were out of syncro...

[@timothyreed648]

ViXoZuDo Yeah but was it out of sync? or was it specifically done like that so they each land on the different "snare" hit....hmm
