    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.

      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!

      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

      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 ...

Dmitri Andreev - we are building towards long term goals

By
  Dmitri Andreev, Russia’s gymnastics leader now that Andrei Rodionenko has stepped into an advisory capacity, is a long standing national coach and well respected international judge.  Now, as gymnastics in Russia steps forward onto the international arena once more, (via its neutral athletes, coaches and officials), it’s up to Andreev and his team to support and structure the growth and development of gymnastics.   Russia’s first big goal as neutral athletes is to qualify for the Olympics at the October World Championships.  Many of the gymnasts have limited experience on the big stage.  The necessary placements are therefore a big ask - especially emotionally and psychologically.   Here is how Andreev sees things working. 1. Transition Phase: Building Toward Major Goals The Russian team is in a deliberate rebuilding and preparation phase. Early-season competitions like the Russian Cup serve more as evaluation tools than peak performances. The primary o...

Viktoria Komova - back pain has forced me to step down

By
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...

Our future is our past - Soviet and Russian propaganda from 1950 to today

By
 As Russian state restrictions on the use of social media and the internet take hold in Russia, we are seeing changes in the way that fans all over the world can access information about gymnastics in Russia.   It is no longer easy for gymnasts to post their opinions, training updates and life events on social media because the State is blocking the use of social media, and even entire mobile internet networks, in certain parts of Russia.  You can read about this more broadly on BBC's Moscow correspondent, Steve Rosenberg's, channel on Youtube. Russia’s attitude to sports is still very much focussed on elite sport, state involvement, and international competition.  Private gyms where anyone can participate are gradually opening, but gymnastics clubs, in the main, are still focussed on elite sport and training to compete at the top level.  We need to go back a few years, to a time when Russia was part of a larger country, the Soviet Union.    E...
