Better late than never, we finally conclude our RELIVING 1992 EUROPEANS SERIES with a look at the Asymmetrical Bars Final, which featured FOUR stars from the former Soviet Union (Svetlana Boginskaya, Tatiana Gutsu, Yelena Grudneva, and Tatiana Lysenko).
In addition, first year senior Romanian, Gina Gogean, performed an unbelievable combination that almost had to be seen to be believed. And the late(?), great Snejana Hristakieva from Bulgaria performed the skill that got her into the Code of Points that is still highly rated with an incredible G value(!!!).
We also find out exactly how Legendary Legend Tatiana Gutsu came to be known as "The Painted Bird of Odessa", in her own words.
All this doing gymnastics, how to do gymnastics, not talking about Yurchenko vaults, and more in Another Wally Creation!
Per usual, I must give a YOOGE thanks to @Boban1611 , who uploaded the majority of the footage I used for this video. Also, I am incredibly grateful to @TheSkatingLesson (of which I have been a faithful Patron for years and years ❤️) for the incredible Tatiana Gutsu video footage! That interview absolutely should be enshrined in a Hall of Fame somewhere.

I love your video,
You are the best…
We should meet again.
Or for the first time 😂 я тебя обожаю! 💗 💋
Loved the split screen, when Lysenko and Grudneva performed their routines at the end of your video and when both gymnasts synchronized for the same dismount.
As always a beautiful video. Superb and well founded content. Thank you for your opinion on these great years of Artistic Gymnastics. 💚🥰😍💚
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch. I know you have a lot going on 🤗
Lyshenko! My favorite. Her 3 layout mount on beam
Holy crap Gina Gogean! I didn't know she had it in her. Very cool to see her do that crazy skill.
I really enjoyed this video. Fascinating facts and insight. Thank You.
I consider myself well informed on gymnastics history. But I was SHOCKED to see my queen Lysenko fall on her beam mount! I have no recollection of this! Perhaps this is why the big mount was outie for Barcelona 🥇
YAY I live to show people new things and take whatever knowledge I accrue and pass it on 🥰. I think compositionally, her series worked better as it was in Barcelona anyway. It made the routine less empty. I do wish she could have learned how to do a decent one-armed handstand though 😭
Sorry I meant Barcelona not Indy 🤦♂️
I have the same outcome as you do for this one.
This is all gymnastics royalty here ♥
Gutsu is Shannon Miller, Lyssenko is Dawes. I'll take Lyssenko/Dawes any day. But, I cant deny Miller and Gutsu's ability to show up for the big games! Lyssenko always had those extra twists, and Dawes really opened the door on flying into the rafters on releases when she brought that Hindorff back into existence! (Chellsie Memell)l def got the email! I'll always give those flowers for gamers, but I'll never deny ppl w much more talent. Dudnik (aside from her leaps), anyone?1 Gina, may have been scored for the rest of her career because of that combo, because she was never giving much after that day, but always getting all the grace from the judges. Please make it make sense!
Svetlana Boginskaja was also the defending European Champion from 1990, where she swept away all 5 Gold Medals in Athens.....
I lost that tape on my way in life sadly, but these Championships were glorious for her....
I said that in the video--that she was the reigning Co-European Champion on bars. In a previous video in the series I said she had won all 5 gold medals also 🙏
🌠🌠Congrats on 2k subscribers, Wally! Amazing, and very well deserved! Love this channel and always look forward to an upload. Be well!🌠🌠
Awww Спасибо большое! 💗
The term for gutsu's perfection is called polished. Speaking of car crashes karolys girl hillary grivich also was killed in a car crash before she even peaked. She was a cute little girl and a great gymnast.
Interesting you should mention Grivich after I bring up Khristakieva in this video. Both gone too soon. No doubt about it 😢
@@thesovgc didn't you say khristakieva died in a crash? I think I heard that, that reminded me of Hillary. I liked her. You would be a good commentator or judge. Love your videos keep them coming! Respect to you
¡Gracias! Te lo agradezco! 💗 (lol idk if you even speak español)
So crazy that Gina did that combination and almost nobody knows .😮
Ikr? And that she attempted a piked full on beam--in combination no less!
she did it in 94 at a mexico gala
I don't think it's an obscure Gogean fact by any means...
@@PeirsolFan2 idk if "obscure" is the best word, but the fact that > 10 people have said they had no idea she did it makes it something, I think.. Perhaps? Possibly maybe.
@@thesovgc I believe that avid gymnastics enthusiasts, beyond those who tune in casually every four years, primarily associate Gogean's routines with consistent, low-risk performances that didn't necessarily push boundaries. So it could be a shock to see how much her coaches suppressed difficulty in her routines in the quest for medals.
12:56 First correction 😭, she clearly grabs the low bar. Thankfully that was a misspeak on my part as my script says "grabs the bar".
I call it the Belu impact. Belu took out all unnecessary flashy skills and constructed routines that were nearly 10 out of 10 hit routines. What could have been! 😂😂😂😂
Lysenko in the thumbnail hahaha
11:40 I think having just one release didn’t help Grudneva in the odyssey of finding judges’ love…
I concur, although it didn't seem to hurt Lysenko.. (Unless you're considering the Shaposhnikova a release?) In a perfect world, I'd hope the invert and dismount would offset that for Yelena. I think she did score 9.9+ in Barcelona, so the judges were definitely with her somewhat.
Also, people don't realize how blessed they are these days to have the equivalent of albums worth of photos to choose from. I have to literally crop Grudneva out of pics of her with her team on the podium for thumbnails at this point 😭
@@thesovgc
Yeah I was considering the Shaposhnikova a release (in the sense of an “eye-catchy” move). what a beautiful gymnast Grudneva was...
@@darkhawkx8 INDESCRIBABLY SO!!! Mon Cœur! 💗
Piskun also did the Def
As did Severino
@@thesovgc And Dolgopolova--although she only caught it 1 out of the 3 times I saw her do it.
@@sidoniesera yessss, how could I forget?? Mon cœur ! 😍
I don't want to see the author of any video...
then don't watch?
I also don't want to see nasty unnecessary comments on my videos, but hey.... them's the breaks sometimes.
