If there ever was a “self care” of gymnastics competitions, this is it. Well, to anyone with any sort of taste it is.
But it occurred to me recently that I’ve never actually watched full coverage of it. For many of us, we’ll remember the videos of individual routines, cut from Frank Endo’s footage that were available on the 80s section of Gymnstands and then made it onto the hub.
I found this coverage of AA final from British television that I found interesting, as it begins with a frank discussion about the Mostepanova/Baraksanova/Sushunova/Omelianchik situation and USSR tactics in general. But if you fancy watching any of the other parts of the competition, please feel free discuss those too.
