  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:

UPDATE 23/9 - Russian WAG team for Nanning confirmed

Daria Spiridonova will compete at her first World Championships this autumn.  Picture : RGF Natalia Kalugina has confirmed the Russian team for Nanning : Aliya Mustafina, Maria Kharenkova, Tatiana Nabieva,Ekaterina Kramarenko, Alla Sosnitskaya, Daria Spiridonova.  Reserve : Polina Fyodorova Here is a paraphrased translation of a comment by Natalia Kalugina on her Facebook page : 'Aliya has confidence in competition and she is, kind of, a coach to this team.  In Europe she succeeded in this role and she has told the coaches that she even liked it. The main fighting force will be Kharenkova, Sosnitskaya and Spiridonova.  Accordingly, the strongest apparatus will be beam (Marina Bulashenko With God!).  The Chinese women, of course, have been known to win that apparatus, but if one falls, they all fall.   Alla Sosnitskaya could compete in the vault final, and - in theory - on the floor. On bars, of course, Russia will probably lose to the Chinese women, but the...

Andrei Rodionenko explains Russia's performance at Worlds - Lupitatranslates

Rodionenko with European Champion David Belyavski  Courtesy RGF/Elena Mikhailova This is the interview that many people on the internet have already commented on, regarding Andrei Rodionenko's alleged racism.  The original, Russian language version, appears on VTB Bank's website (VTB are sponsors of Russian gymnastics).  It takes cleverer people than me to decide what is racism, what is deliberately perjorative, and what is inferred in an interviewer's question.  For now, I will not comment on this, therefore, but I would ask you to read Lupita's translation carefully before you form your own opinion.   I am providing some links below which might help you to decide where you stand.

Does Komova need gymnastics?

Komova - a prodigious talent for performance I have been pondering the nature of gymnastics talent recently, while viewing some videos of 1992 competitions on YouTube - you can find links to them if you like, by visiting RRG's Facebook page. What was it that made the Soviets so outstanding?  In the videos, you will see three champions, side by side, each competing close to perfect routines almost every time they hit the podium.  No sprung floor, no vaulting table, a Code that (1) required compulsory as well as optional routines to be prepared, (2) encouraged innovation in single moves of extreme difficulty, (3) required balanced performances of artistic as well as technical merit, and (4) recognised and rewarded virtuosity.   The three champions I am speaking of each satisfied the Code in different ways: Boguinskaia had unique and incredible grace and amplitude; Lyssenko expressed emotional intensity through an amazing combination of power, difficulty and artistry; Gutsu ...
