    Absolute bars icon. And lasting proof that her routine held up for years with virtually changing nothing in the routine almost the entire time.

      That's not actually the compliment you think it is; gymnastics is supposed to be about variety. Yes, there is a degree to which it is supposed to be about style as well, but the best are those who have a wide repertoire of skills with most unique, yet strategic compositions throughout their careers--esp senior careers are 10 years long.

      Both valid points! I believe an ability to evolve to different rules, swinging styles, while creating new skills constitutes success. It would be interesting if she had ever competed in the open judging system how she would have finished. I still think, however, she would face large deductions on some pirouette angles (handstands) in today’s gymnastics world.

    I always think she was heavily helped by that code of points specially if compared to great chinese bar workers of that era. Like, a single hop on landing was enough to take lot of points. Chinese routines were spectacular, very innovative while she perfected her formulaic routine, just like Mustafina did, even thought both were very innovative too.

      Khorkina’s handstands would be a big issue with the current Code, as well, whereas they were not deducted barely at all back in the 90s and early 00s.

      @@worldartgym I was wondering about handstands and thinking they must not have cared, because I never heard it mentioned as a deduction back in the day.

      @@mjamitche5245 correct. And the 1.5 pirouette before her Khorkina (Markelov) release would have been .5 by the time she completed the hand change!

      Her routine was not formulaic at all, no one could perform like her really. And her body line and handstands really impressed tbe judges, her casts were perfect. She was way ahead of everybody else.

      @@worldartgym she was only off handstand in her 1.5 pirouettes, it was allowed until 2001. The code changed a few times when she was competing and her handstands got better and better as the codes started asking for it. In 2001-2004 she needed to hit all the handstands and she was better at it than ANY other gymnast at that time. In fact her tragic olympic EF fall was when she was trying to go for the exact handstand. A shame because all the girls in the podium had late handstands.
