wow, she's amazing! i wish they'd show rhythmic gymnastics again on CBC like they did in the 90's.

[@lelehappy1005]

She is now a coach at Kajang. Good coach.

Can someone please explain to me what on earth does "doesn't carry the chereography throughout the routine" mean? as stated by the commentator.

[@jmburry]

What the commentator meant was that for the intensity of the music, the choreography wasn't intense. The looked like she was concentrating between each move instead of "performing" to the music. Basically, she could be performing to any music with these elements and it would all look the same.

[@maximilianisaaclee2936]

​@@jmburry Thanks for the explanation. I'm sure the coach would've gone through the music choice and the choreography with the gymnasts, wouldn't she? It's not like she's performing it spontaneously, so that commentator kinda doesn't make sense if it's how you described it. Granted, rhythmic gymnastics judging can be bias at times, both from the judges and the audience.

Irina gabashivilli fantasticaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa couth!

[@bananajus]

ya...where she go? After this games, I never see her...

[@viojajim1791]

she's better than durratun

[@CikTamChannel]

vio jajim duratun better then she

[@thefourthversion]

@@CikTamChannel Durratun’s routine was so messy... so much wobbles and her movements weren’t sharp. This is why she only ended up winning a bunch of silvers in Melbourne 2006

[@MarkGohWL]

Bananajus, she's still around in KL...
