#gymnastics #sports #olympics #gymnast #nadiacomaneci #gold #icon #olympics #beam #floor #vault #bars

Nadia Comăneci is widely regarded as one of the greatest gymnasts of all time. She gained international recognition at the 1976 Montreal Games, when she became the first gymnast in Olympic history to be awarded a perfect 10, at age 14. From 1975 to 1981, Nadia became a 9-time European, 2-time World and 5-time Olympic Champion, and played a quintessential role in inspiring future generations of athletes around the world. Let’s take a look at the most difficult skill performed by the Romanian gymnast throughout her competitive career.

What distinguished Nadia's performances was the dedication to perfecting her entire body's lines. Not just a free cartwheel, the perfect free cartwheel.
After all these year still believe the uneven bar routines of both Nadia and Olga Korbut are the most thrilling and beautiful I have ever seen.

I maintain that Nadia has the prettiest aerials in gymnastics- she just floats!

The Comeneci front, the flip on the high bar release move.

Nice type of video. Do it more like this

[simonschumacher]

Despite its low D-Score compared to today‘s standard, I have always thought that the Korbut vault is a piece of art.

Current gymnasts can't hold a candle to the grace of gymnasts from 70s-80s

[skyedog]

As an athlete about the same age as her at that time not at Olympic level it was great just to see somebody pull off at 10but more than one was the kind of thing that grabbed the attention of everybody in the world 🌍

[pbjpsgc]

Pure talent and real power.. Not bulked up like modern day gymnasts

[JorgeChavez-ywus]

Simplemente la mejor gimnasta de todos los tiempos, nadie absolutamente nadie la va a superar Nadia es la reyna de la gimnasia de todo el planeta te amo princesa Rumana nadie cómo NADIA 🌹🥰❤️😘

when Nadia was competing in the 70s and early 80s the highest difficulty level for a skill was .4 or D not like it is now 1.00 or J though there's currently only 1 trick rated J the triple twisting double back tuck on Floor exercise named the Biles II though the most Simone Biles has been credited for that move is .8 due to a step out of bounds at the US Olympic Team trials in June

NADIA COMĂNECI, A BEAUTIFUL GREAT GYMNAST ALL THE TIME, A WONDERFUL GREAT GYMNAST WITH 7NOTE OF 10, A GREAT SUPERBE GYMNAST FOR THE ENTIRED UNIVERSE!❤🌹

For some context, today’s point system makes no sense when reviewing this time period. It would make much more sense to say what the skills were valued at the time. Those vaults were out of 9.9 and 10.0 at the time. It really makes no sense to say what these are rated today (A, B, C….) when they were scored entirely different. Most of those skills were revolutionary for the time. Saying, a “double pike rated D” makes no sense for this video. Those D scores are the current values for these skills in 2024, and make no sense at all for analysis of the skills in this video.

Nadia has a tendency to cowboy the landings when tucks are involved. Then again, from the looks of the video, she seems to struggle to stick landings. Doesn’t fall flat on her rear, but cowboys landings, lands in squats, and struggles to do the perfect legs together pose when landing.

Though her bar work and aerials are just beautiful. Like a previous commenter said, it’s like she just floats.

[petruflorin]

all ratings according to 2025-2028 code of points? that's shady!!! then you should also judge biles according to a compulsory routine to see where she stands... haha!

❤Si în ziua de azi😮2024😮imi place comportamentul frumos❤caracter frumos, superb❤Nadia comaneci❤

Nadia is amazing, but she still lost to Elena Mukhina in the 1978 World Championship.
Elena Mukhina won five medals at the 1978 World Championships in Strasbourg, France.
She won the All-around gold and beat Olympic champions Nadia Comaneci and Nellie Kim, got the Team gold, the floor exercise gold, and the balance beam silver.
Then there's the Mukhina flip that was banned because of how dangerous it was, but Mukhina did it with extreme grace and skill.
I would have liked to see her compete against Comeneci in the 1980 Olympics, but due to her coach and the abuse she received to perform harder skills she broke her neck.
I know Nadia got perfect 10's in the Olympics, but Olga Korbut performed just as well if not better and didn't get perfect scores. Mukhina didn't get perfect scores either and still beat Comaneci. The judges have shown themselves to be biased time and again based on which country the athlete comes from.

[owensmith]

I watched to see her beam mount that you teased in the thumbnail, but the video did not show it. Clickbait.

[Marketoromagnolo]

in 1981 she competed the vault Korbut and scored 10 but the vault had 9.9 start value, lol Ceaucescu offered money and golds to all judges at 81 universiade in Romania to give Nadia all 10's

[patsheppard]

Say her name right. Co ma neech. That’s how it sounds
