Yekaterina Vandisheva - beam warm up

By
Can we have some more artistry, please?  The work of the oft cited Ekaterina Vandisheva brought some balm to my soul, and I thought it worth sharing once more.  This video dates back to 1993. 




Vandisheva's career was cut short by hand injuries, sadly. Let's hope that the likes of Grishina and Komova can take forward the artistic legacy of gymnastics.

    So, so gorgeous—I love that Gainer Onodi and the fouettés. I am firm believer that the 1993-6 quad produced the most exquisite WAG work to date XD Vika actually reminds me a lot of Vandisheva in her lines.

Nagorny withdraws from BRICS AA

By
 From Match TV:  Olympic champion in artistic gymnastics Nikita Nagorny has withdrawn from the individual all-around at the BRICS Games in Kazan. Earlier, Nagorny announced on his Telegram channel that he had decided not to continue competing in the individual all-around due to an injury and would compete in the qualification only in individual events. 💬 Life is already hinting to me that it’s time to hang up the pads (laughs). In fact, I was well prepared. I tore a blister on the first element, I wanted to jump off while performing the elements, but this is an international competition, you can’t do that, Nagorny said on Match TV. 💪 Today I lost, I admit, you need to be able to lose. I know how to do it. Perhaps a gold medal in the BRICS Games in the all-around would have given me a reason to end my career, but now I will stay until the Friendship Games. I hope I will have two more opportunities to please the fans. Now I will try to prove myself in the vault and floor exercises. I h

Interview with David Belyavski - USA and Britain will fight for bronze in Paris

By
 Olympic champion in artistic gymnastics David Belyavskiy said that he will perform for his own pleasure if the Friendship Games do not take place this year. 🤸"If the Friendship Games do not take place this year, then I do not see the point in straining myself too much in training, as I did before," said Belyavskiy. "I am not saying that I will end my career, but I will perform for my own pleasure. I will not set goals to win this or that. If I manage to win, then good, if not - no big deal, I perform for myself." "Every year it is becoming more and more difficult for me to prepare for competitions, so I think that there is probably no point in torturing myself," the gymnast added. ✋At the BRICS Games, Belyavskiy fought for medals only in the pommel horse exercise, where he fell, leaving him without a medal. "There was no technical error, my arm just went off the horse. It was a little out of control. It happened towards the end of the routine, when
