Funny how back then a double twisting Yurchenko was " a very difficult vault", and now people don't even blink when they see a gymnast do one. Just shows how much gymnastics can evolve in just one decade

Wow, that opening story. Wow. That just demonstrates how drastically this sport has come in the last 15 years! Odd how as soon as Marta was gone the US sent an entire team (+2 individuals) of 18+yo women to Tokyo, most of whom were over 20! Most of the individual WAG medalists at the Tokyo Olympics were in their 20s, too. Gone are the days of adulthood signalling the end of a gymnast's career, and I'm loving it.

I dont know if someone already said it, but in the beginning Nastia did a nice tumbling pass on the trampoline, "stuck it" and her dad criticised her for leaning forward (which she does sometimes, so its a good criticism!!) Shawn did a dismount off the bars and fell and Chow said "i liked that one, a little bit more feet but I liked that one" Funny comparision between their training :)

I believe they both (Nastia and her dad) worked so hard to get that gold all around medal. I feel like that's what she really wanted the most. For Chow and Shawn it was really just about something entirely new to them - she had already exceeded expectations. P.s. Shawn's dismount was really good indeed, she looked amazing.

Nastia was actually part of breaking that stretch.

Yeah, it's only within the past couple of years that we have seen this trend start to change, and it's totally normal to see gymnast in their 20's. 25's the new 'old' in gymnastics. Although I noticed the trend is less prevalent in the US, but I suspect that's because girls a lot of girls want to do NCAA after, and for most there are no opportunities to make money within the sport unless they go pro.

I also wish Jana was chosen for the world's team in 2007 and the Olympics. She was one of my faves of the quad. She should have made it over Bridget Sloan IMO. I feel the situation with Jana reminds me of Morgan Hurd. Both were very good in the first two years of the quad then kinda fell off which is so sad because I love both gymnasts.

I feel sorry for Liukin. I know her father loves her very much, but as soon as she finished a routine, he's always there talking about where she went wrong, teaching her how to do better next time, but I think she needs a bit of space. She rarely smiles and on top of the normal competition stress, there's wanting to please your coach and so when it's your own parent, it must be twice as stressful.

Maybe that's what works best for Nastia though. Each gymnast is different and so coaching them is going to be different.

There used to be a rule where gymnasts who turned 16 during the Olympic year were allowed to compete at the previous years worlds to gain experience. Both Ivana and Shawn didn't turn 16 until 2008, but we're allowed to compete at the 2007 worlds, even though they were only 15 and 14. I think usa gymnastics just let everyone who was eligible for the Olympics compete as a senior in the 2007 nationals. It's also the reason Carly Patterson and Chellsie Memmel were allowed to compete at the 2003 worlds. There were probably more that didn't turn 16 until the following year too. For some reason they got rid of that rule, or else I think Kyla would have been on the 2011 worlds team
