Elite Gymnastics Stars linked to and wrote about this video. What do you think? Fantastic that she can still do so many moves! It’s the first time I’ve seen it and it’s been uploaded to YouTube for a few months by now.
Favourite Routines
May 7th
Everybody involved with gymnastics has their favourite routines from the competitions and events over the years. Below are some of mine. I have chosen some performances from the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. Every so often, I hope to show you my favourite routines from the past.
My parents recorded the gymnastics from Atlanta on VCR for me to watch, over the months and years after the games, I watched the routines time and time again, hoping that some day I could be like those gymnasts. These three floor routines I have chosen by Lilia Podkopaeyva , Simona Amanar and Dominique Moceanu (placed on floor 1st, 2nd and 4th consecutively) are performances I thoroughly enjoyed watching, not only for their spectacular floor work but because the music really added something and made them much more exciting and entertaining. Feel free to share your favourite routines in the comments below.

I’m looking forward to hearing what your favourite floor routines are!
