Sad to see, but I wish the audience would applaud a bit more for the gymnasts that aren't from Russia. Don't get me wrong, I wanted Ksenia to win Gold, but it would have been nice to see a bi more applause and appreciation for the other gymnasts
nope they can't wait in corners or it's a deduction. It's a bit strange because that deduction has been in the CoP for a while and just now they are mentioning it (the commentators I mean). Anyway, it makes the routine flow much better in my opinion
Well, you were comparing 2 different kinds of artistries and personalities. Larisa is no Ana Porgras, but she has her own charisma and a personal style full of naturalness. I think her floor work is very enjoyable and it does draw people in. There's no need to expect every gymnast to display the same classic balletic style, it would be quite boring to watch. Btw, that doesn't mean I give a free pass to gymnasts to completely forget about artistry and claim that's their own "style".
side somi after her triple twist!
Can I just say, all these new-COP floor routines are looking fantastic! Finally the FIG gets something right.

The requeriment is for a front or side element. And there's no more requeriment for combination in the 2013-2016 CoP.
this routine much better than Russian octopus dance
Like u dreaming, u don't even know gymnastics, u just suck
Well, the Russian octopus dance won gold, so go cry into your pillow about it some more ;)
I thought that too but isnt it a side element like it is on beam?
It's no longer a requirement.
aren't they allowed to wait in the corners anymore or what? i saw kseniia and diana doing this aswell
She got medal on floor?
Silver behind ksenia
Love her routine, she doesnt point her toes when she dances tho
what is her front acro requirement
Where's her tumbling combination?

This might come as a surprise for you, but ballet is not the single type of dance out there. You might want to check that out.
