I really think Nastia would have had a shot, but she clearly started training again way too late to be even close :( I mean - putting together a routine a week before nationals? No way that's gonna happen

[@aarulf]

That's what I was thinking. If you were going to make a comeback in gymnastics for the next Olympics, I think you need to start training a year and half before the Olympics. 6 months to a year of getting back into the shape they need to be and the rest for them to compete and prove to themselves

[@jennhayes4693]

Aly and Gabby both clearly learned from Nastia's failure to return to form and got back to training in plenty of time to be ready for Rio.

[@sox4755]

This meet was one of those signs that Jordyn's reign was soon to end. Only beating Gabby fractionally after a fall. Which is a full point off her score. And of course the american cup earlier when Gabby beat both Aly and Jordyn without formally being part of the competition.

[@chrissyjoy08]

I agree...Jordyn really wasn't scoring higher than Gabby, it was just that at times Gabby didn't hit. When Gabby hits (which was, of course the question) she was the higher scorer, so that really shouldn't have been a surprise to have Gabby over Jordyn if Gabby was doing well, which she'd been improving on controlling her nerves. Aly over Jordyn shouldn't have been a huge surprise, either. They both have the Amanar vault, neither of their bars aren't great (though Jordyn is perhaps better there), their beam routines are both very good (I don't recall their D-scores and typical E scores), and Aly had the much higher D-score on floor. So Jordyn missing out on AA wasn't a huge shock to me. Still devastating for Jordyn and I felt bad for her, but I wasn't really shocked.

[@sox4755]

I couldn't agree with you more! We should totally watch gymnastics together. I was slower on the uptake with Aly i guess because NBC had hyped Jordyn so much. After qualification day at Olympics i thought it through and saw that it was always going to be very close between these two cause essentially they are the same gymnast with similar strengths and weaknesses. Aly had been steadily increasing in the shadows whereas Jordyn was in the same state as last worlds

[@SheaNDamon1829]

Also, if they had scored Jordyn's beam appropriately, Gabby would have been the national champion. They were giving Jordyn connection bonuses that shouldn't have been awarded. Unfortunately, it hurt Jordyn more than it helped her. I'm sure she would have changed her routine before the Olympics if those connection hadn't been awarded all along.

[@gymstyle5091]

And if Gabby beam and vault were scored appropriately Jordyn would still win.Plus lets talk Gabby's bar execution going up 3 tenths for a worse routine.

[@nicolefrankel7597]

They kept talking about Valeri's "plan" for Nastia, and how they had faith in it. What kind of a plan means you only start work on the routine a week and a half before competition? She would have been amazing with more time

[@ineedhoez]

Right?

[@somethingelse9176]

I believe the "plan" they were referring to was his plan for 2008, to maximize her start value on the uneven bars, fine tune her floor and vault and uneven bars dismounts according to her injuries and strengths at that time. The plan for 2012 seems to have just been "start training again at the last minute on the same plan, not accounting for any of the changes since."

[@ineedhoez]

It is crazy watching how Gabby got slowly got better. She was inconsistent but slowly put everything together. She won trials. She won the olympic AA. The only thing I wish was that she turned off social media during competitions. She was so hurt about the hair comments. She struggled so much with it. Completely fell apart in event finals (2 times). She always got so much negativity.

[@nathanielhalls1893]

Hair comments?

[@murasakino101]

@@nathanielhalls1893 yes, people were talking about how her hair didn't look nice and could have been done better. There were harsher comments but I won't state them. It really angered me because not only should her hair not matter when she's doing one of the most dangerous sports in the world, but people literally focused more on that than her winning AA and helping her team in the team finals smh. I barely saw anyone congratulate her at that time because of the hair comments, and people being bad that she beat komova even though she was more consistent that day

[@raineramsey2716]

+thetigerbeat007 She was given to high a score for that beam routine.

[@myerklamb8529]

Looking at Jordyns beam and bars consistency in all the 2012 meets, it really wasn't that hard to see her not making the Olympic all around final because of the 2 per country rule. I think Kyla probably would have even beat her as well if she had been allowed to perform vault in the qualies.

[@coreyobr1]

I will never understand how Valeri Liukin is considered such a good coach. 1. In 2007 Nastia was nowhere near ready to be vaulting. And to be having her do a triple twist dismount in beam. 2. Rebecca Bross had no business doing a double Arabian off the beam. And in 2011 she should not have been doing vault like she was. 3. Keeping that bean dismount for Bross while Nastia was competing for the same spot...sketchy.

[@bethanymclean2136]

Also Katelyn Ohashi. He always seemed super cold and mean to his gymnasts compared to the other coaches (Chow and Aly/Alicia's Coach). I think the only reason Nastia did somewhat well was because she was his daughter so maybe he wasn't as emotionally abusive to her as his other gymnasts.

[@azeen6821]

I agree, he is completely awful coach all round. He always seems cold, distant and not encouraging with his gymnasts. Bross was clearly not ready on the level of everyone else and she shouldn’t been there, let alone do such a difficult dismount which she obviously can’t land. And nastia as well was completely unprepared and unconditioned, what kind of coach lets his gymnasts compete while so unprepared and perform routines which they have not properly learned

[@veronikas.8831]

Apparently Bross was adamant about doing the Patterson as her dismount as was able to stick it a few times prior to this comp however ya I agree he shouldn’t have let her do it

[@estherl3902]

he’s a former soviet gymnast so naturally he’s gonna bring that soviet mindset and aura into coaching. in the us we want more positivity, encouragement, etc. nastia did well under him probably bc of the father/daughter bond, but for other american girls they’d do better under more american-style coaching.

[@murasakino101]

@@veronikas.8831 Even if she wants to do it, as her coach, he definitely could have pressed to her that she wasn't ready. Idk why Rebecca herself would even want to keep the dismount when she had several deductions even if she was able to land it. She was very talented so she could have tried something a bit easier like a double pike, 2.5 twists, or even 3 twists.

[@b-man-2H]

34:38 And Tim said it about Jordan's beam start value. This was wear Jordan was doomed for failure at the Olympics. Her new beam routine was based on connections that she could never execute and the domestic meets were giving her credit for some of them when they shouldn't have. Because then she went to the Olympics, wasn't getting credit for these connections, and went into Olympic qualifying and suddenly she gets a much lower start value than she was uses to. Yes, that wasn't her only fault in qualifying. She had a subpar vault and an out of bounds on floor. But beam really cost her in London.

[@saragrant9749]

And an error on bars too. She really was messy in qualifying, and I suspect her coach (may he burn in hell forever) knew she would miss it when it came time for floor- she just didn’t have enough to overcome all the issues.

[@camspearman8590]

The fact that they let Rebecca do that Patterson for years is legit poor coaching.

Hey now... I have ridden some of my BEST scoring dressage tests after memorizing the (correct!) Test just moments before hopping on& trotting to warm up, or being super late to show jumping because they changed the schedule- waving my arm around to catch the officials attention like, "YESSS! IM NUMBER 364!!! I DIDNT SCRATCH IM HERE!!!! LET ME DO ONE CIRCLE/JUMP ONE JUMP/WATCH JUST 1 RIDER JUMP THE COURSE & ILL BE GOOD TO GOOOOO!" *please, horse show gods, let this be more than just wishful thinking* & it almost makes u have to focus so much more on WHAT you actually have to DO- rather than having it soooo OVER memorized & practiced that you're not thinking about it anymore- doing THAT almost allows you more room to develop so many more nerves & to overthink things... I see some of these girls perform the same routines competition after competition, year after year, and they mess up "silly things/some of the easiest parts of their routines/moves they've performed a million times!" whereas sometimes if it's a NEWER routine that they're just learning, they almost seem to have better focus on the moves & have less room mentally for nerves... Maybe it's totally different sports- but I bet there's some similarities in there mentally when it comes to OVER practicing some things! (Not to say learning a routine like this a week & a half before performing it is the BEST idea either? But, I think there's definitely some validation in changing things up& not over preparing!)

Right?! Yikes!!! I've been riding& competing horses in dressage jumping but mainly 3 Day Eventing (like a horse triathlon that includes dressage, show jumping& cross country jumping) for over 20yrs now- and sure I had fallen off but never really had a bad fall or gotten HURT before I was 15 or so (still had that young, fearless, teenage mindset of "I'm INVINCIBLE, MUAHAHAA!") then I was warming up for XC at an event and was 1 of only 2 people left to go in the warm up ring when I jumped a fence & my horse landed on a half buried rock & he tripped, fell& sommersaulted over top of me... I had never had the wind knocked out of me before that- but damn. I laid there on my back, arms pinwheeling around, trying to sit up& gasping for air, probably looking like a total idiot- I had NO CLUE what was happening!?! Having the wind knocked out of you is so friggin SCARY! My horse actually ended up being totally fine, and once I got my breath back, someone helped me back on & I still rode & actually had a clear xc round & won my division at the show- but I didn't find out until I finally went to the Dr almost a week later because it was still hurting to breathe- that I had also broken 2 ribs. (And I kept RIDING, but, hey, it got me out of PE in school for a month, YESSS!!!) but now in my late 20s, I've had a number of concussions- mostly pretty minor- I've been kicked& shattered my shoulder, kneed by my old horse in the face& broke my orbital socket, jaw& 4 teeth (it's been almost 5 years & I'm STILL dealing with my cracked teeth needing to be pulled& getting implants put in soon! Ack!) But man- I REALLY, REAAAALLLLLY feel for these girls when they land badly & you can tell they hurt their ankles or knees!! I've severely sprained 1 ankle twice the other 3x, once I sprained both at the same time- and when I was 19 I fell when schooling my youngest horse on cross country & I broke my nose (for about the 4th time lol) and completely snapped/severed my PCL in my left knee- which is a pretty unusual, difficult injury to even incur- but I swear I still remember & feel it going POP every time I hear them talk about one of these poor girls having a knee injury, or feel my cartilage & scar tissue ripping, tearing & crackling in my own ankles any time any of these girls look like they so much as ROLL theirs!

[@colleen_schaner]

Tim always jinxes things. Ex: 41:55 - 42:01

[@SonOfAGun1814]

shawn was looking so good up to this point; did she reinjure something??

[@aarulf]

She retire a week before the Olympic trials. Her body just couldn't handle competing at Olympic level

[@JennaLeigh]

If I'm not mistaken, her knee just wasn't up to par. It just wasn't 100% and she knew it was best to not push it.

[@ineedhoez]

I remember she said that she wanted to be able to have a life after gymnastics. Her knee could not hold up. She also said that she was being told she was fat. Probably by Marta.

[@MsSportsMontages]

Did the floor music actually echo that bad or is it just tho audio on this video?

[@abschaffer2]

MsSportsMontages no the echo is really bad

[@GoldForAnna]

And Nastia Liukin is gonna show she won't concurrence Gabby Douglas at the Olympic trials, with her unusual attitude in a competition.

[@sameersingh3282]

POWERFUL AND STAMINA FULL GAME, PRACTICE FULL PLAYERS, BEAUTIFUL PLAY.....

[@NinaZuccaro0824]

Rebecca Bross’ dismount is always so painful to watch. I feel so bad for her. Can’t imagine her having to watch Aly Raisman land it over and over again.

[@saragrant9749]

She unfortunately refused to switch to something she could consistently stick. She admitted later that it was her choice to keep it. I still feel that, even without the knee injury she wouldn’t have made the team. Too many others were more consistent, more reliable by then.

[@laurenpross9438]

Kyla's leo is so similar to the team final in rio!!

[@elisecastro_]

her leo personally reminds me of the leotards worn by the magnificent seven in atlanta.

[@ryleethegamer2569]

I have never seen Alicia Sacrmone do a bar routine EVER EVER GOOD JOB GABBY AND JORYDAN

[@trapezemiley]

She stopped training bars in 2006

[@falpalemily]

Jordyn's routines ❤ Bars 13:51 Beam 29:46 Floor 45:52 Vault 1:00:20

[@alexramirez9589]

I absolutely love who they picked to represent the USA at the Olympics. But I have to say I really wanted to see Alicia there. She was so hungry for that redemption, and she would've made such a great addition to the team

[@auspicious93]

I feel like she should have changed the mount, then!!!

[@somethingelse9176]

​@@auspicious93agree with you. Nix the mount, do something simpler that can be connected, and let the rest of the routine speak for itself. Nobody threw a double pike off the beam like Alicia Sacramone did. Think how different 08 could have been!

[@bluesmurf8065]

I disagree. At this time on those days and prior Alicia wasn’t the best she could be. Others were better. That’s all.

[@lindsay-mariecahill6048]

they mentioned Larry Nasser and disgust is the only word that comes to my mind.

[@Donamtrx]

I don't know how they can focus on beam with somebody's floor music playing. I have noticed a few times where the beam routine just happens to fit perfectly with the music though🤷🏻‍♀️

[@carliecole2563]

I would just try to get into it and pretend that I was just extra special & that it was MY BEAM MUSIC, dammit!!!

[@eurekamreum5458]

Ksenia Afanseyva's TF BB is one of my favorites of all time because it has Sandra Izbasa's FX music playing in the background, so incredibly beautiful! kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4S6Y4pnqqeqi8k

[@saragrant9749]

They train to block out exterior stimulus and focus solely on what they are doing. I was a track and field athlete and when I got up to throw (discus) I didn’t even hear my coach speaking a few feet away from me.

[@kfed2580]

I wish Nastia would have changed her bars routine, she was trying to do the same one as 2008 and after growing and everything they should’ve changed it up to suit her now.

[@ilovedogs5452]

im obsessed with bridget sloan's bars😍

[@Donamtrx]

Let us never forget..Balance beam will check u ....ANYONE CAN FALL AT ANYTIME....even Nastia🤷🏻‍♀️

[@gemmatrizzino1917]

The floor music was sort of skipping did anyone notice that?

[@kayleecantler3253]

can someone please tell me whats the name of gabbys floor music ? ............... I have been looking for floor music.

[@saragrant9749]

The comments about Marta not playing favorites made me gag. She most certainly did over the years. Glad she and the rest of those shmucks are gone.

[@bluesmurf8065]

Who were her favorites? Alicia? Shawn? Nastia? Gabby?

[@guinhartman748]

tim dagget makes daggers in my back...let Elfie and al talk😂😂😂

[@moonsigns3887]

FINALLY someone else thinks he is horrible. I swear... dag-nabit tim dagget

[@lily919]

honestly none of them should talk they’re all annoying

[@Katigirl23]

He can be dramatic and annoying but I’ll take him over Al and Elfie any day 😆 And now that Nastia and Terry Gannon have taken there place he’s much better.

[@ericknunez2902]

even with gabby falling still gets 2nd place and is behind by 2 tenths so if she did not fall she would have placed 1st and jordyn would be behind by 8 tenths

[@Katigirl23]

But she did fall. And in the end Gabby won at the Olympics over Jordyn so you can also say if only Jordyn took one less step here or there...

[@martejohn2]

"Love you, Nastia!" 🙌🏻 1:02:53

[@JJ-xj4lv]

Tim dagget is like " She's going to do a very easy vault" when Bridget slone was going and I was like , I will never be able to do that🤦‍♀️💁

[@heathrashworth]

rewatching again 😅😅 wow jordyn’s beam connections really hurt her. in the US, they always gave her too high of a SV

[@avafreck9589]

That leotard on Aly looked great on her

[@JennaLeigh]

I literally thought the same thing. Just love her so much.

[@matthewkretschmer7010]

It sure does. Didn't compete in that leotard before in an early gymnastics competition?

[@eurekamreum5458]

14:59 lmao hearing this and then realizing that it was actually Gabby and not Jordyn the one who ended up competing BB in the team finals, she definitely peaked at the right time

[@saragrant9749]

Gabby went to those games and just absolutely rocked everything in qualifying, team and AA final. It was so fantastic to see her evolution throughout the year. Jordyn might have had a shot at the AA in London if not for the complete idiocy of her trash coach.

[@eurekamreum5458]

​@@saragrant9749 Geddert paced her terribly and then ruined her beam routine! Not only was he a trash person but, as you said, a trash coach as well.

[@saezvirginia4575]

Thank you for all these videos that I didn't see before! :) Does anyone know the link to the official Russian Gymnastics KZbin channel? I looked, but I don't know Russian... Thanks!

[@alaaalajmi2969]

I loved the music in 26:30 can you tell the name for that music

[@tamaranicole620]

That was waaaaaaaay dramatic bout Kyla out of bounds

[@butterbird2091]

What time nastia did the vault?

[@cotisalamanca]

She didnt

[@johnluuee]

Rebecca Bross on Bars is beautiful. I wish she change her beam dismount to a double piked instead.

[@tiffanybrown1001]

Why didn’t Rebecca Bross ever change her beam dismount?

[@speedofpee]

45:35 Marta is saying "Good. I knew starving Kyla was a good idea."

[@hannahrachelxo2281]

Why did Rebecca always do that dismount? It was always off for her...

[@shariseibeld8191]

HannahBanana Xo I guess she was pushed to do it so her difficulty would be higher

[@katy9291]

I heard that valeri didnt want her to do it. But she insisted to keep it in the routine. ofc, it's only what I heard, have absolutely no clue :D

[@mr.d4ve]

HannahBanana Xo she needed to, no way she was going at the Olympics as a two-event specialist with a low beam D-score

[@RachelLexiShow]

Because her stupid coaches forced her to do that shit.

[@alwayssadreamerr]

they said 'who is she better than' rather than #whose better than her'

[@claire5770]

Watch Alicia on the right of the floor when mckayla falls @ 19:10

[@HelleClausen1]

who was on floor when jordyn was on bars? around 14:00

[@katiesha96]

Jordyn didn't do her second turn on beam after the horizontal leg turn at the end of her routine, does that change the D-score at all...?

[@HikerChick2]

Probably

[@carmencitadavis9043]

He said this little girl is soft spoken, that's a understatement because just about all these gymnast was soft-spoken they all had baby voices, even though they were teenagers and some of them were Young adults they sounded like five year old children I don't know if that's because some of the girls growth was stunt

[@Kayyleeeeee]

Was Kyla’s vault a double twisting yurchenko or a full ?

[@veronikas.8831]

Did anyone hear the double loop on alys and gabbys floor music? If they had to perform to that damn mad respect

[@erinlou4837]

Okay but who’s the girl on bars in the background of jordyn’s floor routine?

[@raphouice4300]

Who were the alternates at the olympics ?

[@natalieblackmore4134]

Raphou Ice Sarah Finnegan, Anna Li and Elizabeth Price 😊

[@hollymacmillan5268]

Raphou Ice Sarah Finnegan,Elizabeth Price and Kennedy Baker😊
