  1. Daria is a great bar worker and she is the UB EJC in Sofia last year with 6.3D-score ...
    But given to the available results I think Melnikova made an uncharacteristic mistake on UB ...
    anyhow that generation has many good AAers and FX potentials ...
    Congratulations to them all and hope to see one or two of them represent Russia in Rio next year.

    1. There is a video of Angelina M's bars here - http://youtu.be/8tQZ4xYSYqw - she fell on her layout Jaeger.

      In the team competition Melnikova had scored an amazing 15.6 on this apparatus - this generation does seem to have a lot of talent and I so hope they can translate it to senior success.

      On the same YouTube channel you will fine videos if Sokova, Skrypnik, more of Melnikova and the other interesting juniors!

    2. Daria has just won UB EF with a D score of 6.6, Angelina was fifth and her D score was 6.3 but an E score if 7.4 so presumably a fall again. Eremina won vault. http://sportgymrus.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/C-III-final-v-otdel-ny-j-vidah-MS-devushki-.pdf

    3. Thank you for the results Queen Elizabeth, and indeed this generations in my opinion proves that:
      Russia still formidable on UB, good on BB, improving on FX and still suffers on VT ...

Denial of visas - some background

Can I remind everyone interested in Russian gymnastics that the restrictions imposed on Russia following its state-sponsored doping scandal were quite separate from the restrictions introduced following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine? The Russian doping scandal came to prominence in 2016, while WADA imposed further sanctions in 2019. Although these sanctions restricted Russia’s participation under its national flag, they did not impose a blanket ban on Russian gymnasts. Athletes who met the relevant eligibility requirements were still permitted to compete. Artistic gymnastics has historically recorded relatively few positive doping tests, and Russian gymnasts were not collectively excluded from international competition as a consequence of the doping scandal. Russian gymnasts therefore continued to compete at the Olympic Games and major international championships, including the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. The situation changed in February 2022, following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukra...

Viktoria Komova - back pain has forced me to step down

I awoke this morning to a very simple statement from Viktoria Komova, on her vk.com site, which Papa Liukin has translated (via the IG forum): 'Dear friends, fans, and gymnastics lovers. Unfortunately back pain isn't allowing me to train to my full potential and get ready for competitions. I've made the very difficult decision to stop training and take care of my health. I want to thank everyone for their support! Without your love and warmth it would've been more difficult to go all the way. Thanks everyone and see you soon! Love and kisses.' Well, first of all, good wishes and best of luck to Viktoria, who has struggled since 2012 to re-establish herself fully as a competitive gymnast, whose talent was so great that she secured gold on bars at two different World Championships, four years apart, whose career was littered with controversy, who must be allowed to live her life as she wishes.   I know that the 'gymternet' will now be overflowing...

WAG Senior start lists are out - Afan does one, Mustafina three

Start lists are now available for tomorrow's senior team and event quals.  At present, the Russian roster  looks like this - Beam - Melnikova, Tutkhalyan, Mustafina Floor - Melnikova, Tutkhalyan, Mustafina  Vault - Melnikova, Tutkhalyan, Afanasyeva  Bars - Melnikova, Spiridonova, Mustafina  Things can still change, dear reader, but this is the most reliable official news we have.    It will be good to see all five members of the team compete - I am relieved that Mustafina isn't doing all four but worried for her legs on floor; delighted to see Melnikova and Tutkhalyan making such a strong contribution; and pleased that Afanasyeva is having a chance to try out her training, despite what might be a small injury.  Spiridonova is also looking good for bars, in fact to me she is underused here.   Good luck!  Udachi!  To all the team.  We are very excited to see you compete and do well! The start lists can be found here - http:/...
