Yup. Tokyo was a flop compared to this, especially since we all had so much hopes for Tokyo's bars finals. Our expectations just crashed like Nastia at 2012 Olympic trials.
What was that skill called that she did where she went from the high bar to the low bar did that straddle thing and then flipped around and caught the high bar?
So many strong competitors in this final, The London AA champion Gabby Douglas, the reigning UB world champion Viktoria Komova, the reigning UB Olympic champion He Kexin, The team Captain of the Russian and Chinese team, Aliya Mustafina and Yao Jinnan respectively, and UB Specialists Elizabeth Tweddle, Koko Tsurumi and Elizabeth Seitz! Before the competition started, I felt like 5 people had the chance of taking the gold medal!
@@fortheloveofcats2462 yeah, everyone knows nastia got the silver despite having the exact same score with he kexin, and it's because it was held AT BEIJING, CHINA
@@albertitomoon5002 I personally don't believe so. The tiebreaker was unfair. Also her landing wasn't as firm. I remember there were so many rumors of them all being underage.
I can see the amount of hard work that goes in to creating routines like this. The choreography the training, we have to appreciate the time these incredibly magnificent gymnasts take!!😊😊👍👍
Beth muscled through her entire routine. Aliya floated and made it look easy. That would be the decider in the judges eyes since they had the same difficulty.
El truco era clavar la salida, por qué todas mejoraron y llegaron a la perfección en todo su ejercicio, lo difícil era la salida y quién la clavo y fue perfecta fue Aliya.
Other years might be more exciting, with more talent pool filling up the top 8 to be the champion. But to beat London's variety, where all three medal-winning routines are so distinctly different from each other yet absolutely amazing in their own ways? Now THAT isn't going to be topped anytime soon. Correct medal order too, btw.
@@fortheloveofcats2462 Not really tho, bc Vika scored a 15.666 in the finals and the deduction for hitting your toes on the bar is 0.300 (in this quad’s CoP). So if you add it up, she would have gotten 15.966, just enough to edge out He Kevin but not Aliya
Mustafina gana porque de las 3 tiene mejor ritmo a la ee china se ve q tuvo doficultad cuando paso a la barra superior y la inglesa tuvo un ritmo alocada en cambio mustafina fue poesia y la salida perfecta
Not true, her best performance in that Olympics was in qualifications, and she scored the exact same score as Aliya did in EF. And it's a known fact that whoever ties with Aliya Mustafina is doomed.
Nastia's execution wasn't anywhere near Aliya, Vika and He Kexin. Beth's difficulty was higher than what Nastia could've done in 8 elements. So no, she couldn't have placed in the top 3.
No way. It pales in comparison. All sorts of errors from not enough warm up because they can't warm up on the spot. Also, the difficulty is nothing like this this year. And I have no idea why the bar judges deduct scores for no reason. Execution was never above 9.0 and they ended up outscoring others only based on difficulty regardless of how they actually look.
I enjoyed the Chinese gymnast's routine more than Mustafina, but I don't fully understand the COP, so other than seeing the beauty and artistry of Mustafina, I don't really understand how she won gold. Those release and catch combinations by Kexin were a thing of wonder.

This uneven bars final will remain the most iconic. No one knew who would prevail with so many strong competitors on the table.

Beth tweddle was two time world champion in Uneven Bars (2006,2010) and Koko Tsurumi won a silver in this event back at 2009 worlds
Yao jinnan wasnt the captain of the chinese team though, it was deng linlin and even after 2012 it was always shang chunsong
@@Nicole-db2ub If Nastia made a proper comeback would her routine been viewed as the same difficulty as the others?
chaseypoo17 Her difficulty was a 6.5 in 2012 and she always had some late handstands and that dismount wouldn’t stand a chance in this code.
Aliya is a legend in UB! The queen of elegance! 😍🇷🇺
But nobody is like indian javlin thrower neeraj chopra
Ahh Aliya. 😩😩 The undisputable Queen and one of the greats. Gymnastics and the Olympics will never be the same without you. 💔
This was the best UB final. Rio 2016 was nothing compared to this.
Edit: Tokyo was worse than the Romanian Nationals lmao
absolutely
Beijing is the best

Mustafina is a best gymnast in 21 century.
He Kexin is a queen. She's one of the five Chinese gymnasts in history to make 2 olympic teams, and she got a medal on UB both times!
She didn't deserve her first

Happy retirement, Aliya Mustafina.
One of the best finals in the history of artistic gymnastics
Aliya Mustafina forever
I miss Aliya! 😥
Aliya Mustafina is the Queen of hearts ❤🙌🏻👏🏻
She was my favorite gymnast ever!❤❤❤ always loved from the Philippines!
That dismount of Aliyas is insane
What a legendary lady Aliya unbeatable
Queen is back ❤️
Aliya ❤️my queen forever
The most exciting UB finals ever! I remember thinking at least 3 or 4 people could’ve been the gold medalist!!
Imagine if Tweddle landed a clean dismount
I'm still salty for her. Such a great routine.
She was overscored
She would have scored 16.116 just behind Aliya
@@ServingUptheT she took a 3 tenth step and another step though?
Beth muscled through her entire routine. Aliya floated and made it look easy. That would be the decider in the judges eyes since they had the same difficulty.
Aliya es la máxima de máximas!!!❤
Прекрасная Алия❤
Most epic UB final
Aliya Mustafina Queen 👑.
El truco era clavar la salida, por qué todas mejoraron y llegaron a la perfección en todo su ejercicio, lo difícil era la salida y quién la clavo y fue perfecta fue Aliya.
Exacto, sumándole a que los “hands stands” de Aliya fueron perfectos en las tomas de cámara que muestran imágenes de perfil.
Simply ICONIC

ALIYA THE BEST 🥇🥇
queen Aliya
You know a routine is gold material when it becomes the blueprint for routines in the event for the next quads
Also means it's easy to copy and paste. No one can copy and paste Kexin and Beth's routines because whey are so difficult.
La gimnasia ya no será la misma sin Aliya QUEEN Mustafina, la extraño mucho, solo por ella veía las Olimpiadas 😅
Brillante Aliya Mustafina!!!!!
ALİYA❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💓💓💓
This final is brutal lol. Just imagine if Gabby and Vika hit
Gabby wouldn't have changed the top 3 placements, but had Vika hit she'd be first and sadly Beth would've lost out on a medal
@@fortheloveofcats2462 vika couldn't edge aliya

Можно вечно смотреть.... 😍😍😍

this final was chilling

Eu amo Rússia eu toce vcs mon ange 🇷🇺👈🇧🇷👈❤👈 aliya
Remember the number SIXTEEN POINT ONE THERE THREE unmatched until this day
❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩🔥how incredible
too sad she already retired.
Only Aliya deserved her e score. I like He and Tweddle but they were severely overscored.
Tweddle was overscored. He was not
Mustafina they quin!!!!!!!!!!
Mustafina gana porque de las 3 tiene mejor ritmo a la ee china se ve q tuvo doficultad cuando paso a la barra superior y la inglesa tuvo un ritmo alocada en cambio mustafina fue poesia y la salida perfecta
Beth absolutely didn't deserve that bronze medal!
Can't say that.Its sad true but Aliya and He kexin owned the bars.They truly deserved their medals.
Ya. The bronze should have gone to Yao Jinnan
He kexin the only one have basic D dismount and no shap transfer
And the only one with such incredible release skills
Austin Xa Did you watch Beth Tweddles routine.
@@maia9056 saw it,but He Kexin and Aliya nailed it.They were just perfect.
And Aliya the only one with no big release skill
👍👍
If it wasn’t for that landing tweddle would be an Olympic champion.
Not true, her best performance in that Olympics was in qualifications, and she scored the exact same score as Aliya did in EF. And it's a known fact that whoever ties with Aliya Mustafina is doomed.
@@fortheloveofcats2462 Lol that last sentence is so true
Tweddle was extremely overscored. Yao Jinnan deserved the bronze.
I wonder what Komova would have scored if not for hitting the low bar on her giant. She was very close, even with that error.
hitting the low bar is a 5 tenths deduction so it she would've scored 9.166 in execution
@@wkim22 9.166 + 7.0=16.166
Давай Давай Давай
Kexin
I wonder if tweedle is still kicking herself for that landing because that cost her the gold. Still an amazing competition between the top 3
I think if Beth would have had a cleaner landing(even a stuck one) she would have just been barely behind mustafina
@@maxtorres874 nope. I believe she had a 0.3 deduction for the 1st step and 0.1 for the 2nd step. More than enough to put her just ahead of mustafina
@@pedropelaez she took 2 large steps (0.3 each) and one small step (0.1)

If Nastia trained earlier and was consistent, would she have been realistically placed as the gold or were the other girls' bars harder?
Nastia's execution wasn't anywhere near Aliya, Vika and He Kexin. Beth's difficulty was higher than what Nastia could've done in 8 elements. So no, she couldn't have placed in the top 3.
0 chance to win a medal

I had to turn the volume off, can't stand the squawking girls
Beth tweedle was the gold 🥇 medal winner, but don't come for me.
Wish she had stuck the dismount, but she never had stuck that dismount, ever
No Aliya won.
Beth didn't deserve bronze. Bronze should have been Yao Jinnan.
