Albert at the All Around Forum alerts us to some results from the Moscow Regional Championships, held 26-29 October 2010 and posted at http://www.sport-gymnastics.ru/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=2425&sid=31ec44c5dfd1f31ba0f4e286fd04f553. Some of the scores noted, in particular those for Maria Paseka, Anastasia Grishina and Viktoria Malikova, appear to be those they achieved for the Russian Nationals earlier this year. I understand that these key results can be re-used for team competition purposes, in order to avoid over-competing key gymnasts who are preparing for higher profile competitions. This compromise allows the ‘home’ club to gain appropriate recognition for the achievements of their gymnasts.

I will transcribe here some of the key competition results with a view to registering some new names. Of particular interest are the achievements of Naila Mustafina, Aliya Mustafina’s younger sister ;-)

Candidate Master of Sports (girls born 1996-1997)

1. Maria Mager (1997) 53.3 + 53.8 (high score vault = 14.2; floor = 13.7)

2. Anastasia Belova (1997) 49.4 + 52.1 (high score beam = 13.8; floor = 13.8)

3. Anastasia Marchuk (1996) 50.65 + 50.75 (high score vault = 13.9)

Aliya Mustafina’s sister Naila (1996) competed here also after an absence due to injury and achieved 5th position with a total of 98.7 over two days (49.2 + 49.5). Her results in the apparatus finals of 2nd in beam (13.6) and first on floor (13.65) suggest she could have the potential to improve her placing a little.

Also performing hors de competition were a number of younger gymnasts born in 1998. I shall mention Maria Palamar who at the tender age of 11 or 12 achieved a mark of 13.3 on beam.

Winners in the individual apparatus were

Vault : Anastasia Marchuk, 13.45

Bars : Maria Mager, 13.15 (Belova must have been favourite for this with an all around bars score of 13.8, but fell and achieved a score of 11.1 in the final, ending up in 4th place)

Beam : Anastasia Belova, 13.7. Second place to Naila Mustafina, 13.6

Floor : Naila Mustafina 13.65

There was a further competition held for girls born in 1998, although I am unable to translate what it was (anybody able to clarify? The title is ВЗРОСЛЫЙ РАЗРЯД).

Apparatus final results included

Vault : Viktoria Kuzmina 13.625

Bars: Yana Vlasova 13.2

Beam: Elizabetta Yemelyanova 14.4 ;-)

Floor: Ekaterina Bryanchina 14.2

Youth results of the Master of Sports competition (men born 1989-1993) are also provided, with Alexander Klochkov (1990), Konstantin Chalov (1992) and Vycheslav Veselov (1992) sharing the main medals overall. All three seem to share vault as a strength, with scores in the 15s on this apparatus.

I always think it is nice to file these results away and remember the names to see how gymnasts progress. I love it if one of my juniors makes it to senior or even international level!

Tatyana Nabiyeva on work and love in China

By
Some highlights from a long interview with 2010 World champion Tatyana Nabiyeva.  Source: Russian team page on VK.com.  Translation - Google translate A big interview with Tatyana Nabieva about the peculiarities of work and life in China, the bright years of her sports career, a little about modern gymnastics and about love. On the Nabiyeva flight — At the same championship, you presented a new element on the bars, which was later added to the rules with your last name (flying over the top bar with a straight body, difficulty group F. — Sport24). How did you come up with the idea to try something new? — Actually, it happened spontaneously, I think. We worked with Vera Iosifovna [Kiryashova] on the purity of the elements on the bars, sometimes I didn’t fly all the way to the Shaposhnikova element. Once I didn’t fly all the way to the bars either and stood on my feet between the bars, bending my legs in flight for safety. Then Vera Iosifovna said that this was a different eleme...

Full results are available here . In summary, 1    Moscow    (Olennikov, Garibov, Gogotov, Bondar, Stolyarov, Ablyazin)    261.55 2    Siberia       (Devyatovski, Pakhomenko, Ignatiev, Cherkasov, Golutsotskov  259.85 3   Central       (Barkalov, Nyudakin, Markelov, Perevoznikov, Bondar, Ignatenkov   255.00 Interesting - Mikhail Bondar appears to have competed for two teams simultaneously here - Moscow and Central - not sure how this works but quite pleased with myself for noticing it ;-)  Only his high bar score counted for the Central team.  One of the wonderful mysteries of Russian gymnastics.  Hopefully we'll have the women's team results later.  And perhaps I'll discover something even more wondrously mysterious there.  Who knows.

Who needs difficulty? Portraits of a young gymnast - Ivan Stretovich

By
These pictures of young Ivan Stretovich, taken by Elena Mikhailova at last week's European Gymnastics Championships, are available in a gallery at the Russian Gymnastics Federation website.  I wanted to share a sequence of them with you. Stretovich turns 16 in October, and comes from Novosibirsk in Siberia, where he is coached at the Dynamo club by B Konvissar.  This young gymnast emerged at April's Russian Championships, where he took gold or silver medals in every event final except for vault.  In Montpelier, he contributed to the Russian team's silver medal. But pictures speak louder than words, and medals aren't all that matters.  Stretovich's start values (in qualifying 5 (F), 5.1 (PH), 4.8 (SR), 5.4 (V), 5.1 (PB) and 4.9 (HB) leave some room for development, but the special quality of his work is even rarer than a double twisting double back somersault.  That quality is the ability to elevate the simple to a pitch of perfection, and to make the diff...
