Oh and oh and oh.  There are some gorgeous pictures on the RGF site.  Time for another gallery soon, I think - I can see I have my work cut out!

All hail Queen Mustafina!!  Good luck to all the girls and boys as they progress through this competition and with their preparations for the Olympics.

This afternoon, we have the men's all around.  It doesn't look as though live streaming is going to happen, sadly, but at least we have Nora's on the spot accounts to look forward to.

Comments

  1. Thanks for the link to the pictures, I had seen the men pictures earlier but the women weren't up as yet and now they are.

    Those are not good scores for Nabieva, especially since she is only doing 2 events. Her form when she is doing vaults will hurt the team. I don't really want her on the team, she can be an alternate if anything.

    It seems they are marking them harshy and I like that. This will help them to improve whatever they are doing wrong so that those international judges won't have any reason to take off points. Damn at Komova's bar score, I read she has some upgrades. So I think both her and Mustafina will have the same bars SV or who knows, maybe Musty upgrades more if she wants.

    Would love to know the DV/SV for everyone on their appartuses but I guess Russia will keep that top secret for now.

  2. Do you think Nora can video some of the routines or do you know if they are going to be put up somewhere?

    1. I don't think there will be any videos of this comp sadly. But if I find any links, I will post.

  3. I believe Viktoria Komova is the new Russian Cup Champion! YAY! Aliya Mustafina came second. Haven't seen any scores yet but I hope this gives Vika a much-needed confidence boost for London!

'Mustafina is no longer in pain' - Valentina Rodionenko

Picture of Aliya Mustafina, courtesy of RGF Valentina Rodionenko has provided some updates on the Russian teams and how their preparation for Worlds (Nanning, China, 3 to 12 October) is progressing, via Allsports (http://www.allsportinfo.ru/index.php?id=84328) - The teams are now at camp in Italy, in two small towns close to Milan, by the sea, where the girls travelled on 29th June and the men on 1 July.  The athletes aren't only training, they can also relax. - Komova is working out at Round Lake, she didn't go to Italy.  We will see how she does at the Russia Cup, which will be held late August in Penza. Tatiana Nabiyeva is looking good in training and the other girls are also working.  Ksenia Afanasyeva won't have time to prepare for Worlds, and Anastasia Grishina's participation is also in doubt, we just don't know if she will qualify for the team.   We have hopes for Aliya Mustafina.  As always, she is our number one.  It would be great if there were t...

Nelli Kim - 'Russian gymnastics has closed in on itself' - Lupita translates

Lupita has translated this ITAR-TASS interview with Nelli Kim.  It's controversial, to say the least. Ed's note : much of the initial response to this interview - both here and in the wider gymternet -  has focussed on the detail of Kim's words and especially her comments about Viktoria Komova, and smiling.  But I think these have to be taken in context, and not too literally. Don't forget that just a day ago Andrei Rodionenko complained bitterly about the judging in Antwerp, calling Kim's behaviour 'aggressive'. Kim is responding to this here, and to the wider current context of Russian gymnastics.  What she is essentially saying to the Russian coach is 'get your own house in order, produce confident, disciplined, well trained gymnasts - stop complaining, do your job, and I will do mine.'   She goes about saying this in a somewhat long winded way and says some things along the way that seem contradictory, unfair, inappropriate even for th...

The Produnova vault - should it be banned?

Elena Produnova - one of the most beautiful and powerful gymnasts ever There is a lot of discussion about this at the moment and I felt moved to add this blog's voice to the rising tide of opinion. The vault you can see below (a) should not be banned as it is exciting, innovative and beautiful. Vault (a) http://youtu.be/nQuIQ9s3ddM But the vault below (b) should receive a zero, leaving the coach and gymnast effectively disqualified from the running for team, all around and apparatus finals.  While you might argue that the gymnast nominally lands with her feet on the ground, she can't sustain the landing and her weight is taken by back, head, neck and several other body parts.  Surely common sense dictates a zero score.  You can argue, if you like, that common sense shouldn't come into judging, but surely it is not too much to expect judges to make judgements.  Or perhaps a minor change to the wording of the Code if Points is required to make this more comfortable for...
