Wow. Is it wrong to think she should be using her amazing acrobatic talents to do something other than silly rhythmic gymnastics? Apologies to rhythmic gymnastics enthusiasts. I am not sure it's considered a serious sport in the US. Ok, maybe it is, but not by many people?

you laugh and ridicule her now - but when your town is invaded by hundreds of these bloodthirsty gymnasts, lopping off the heads of passersby to toss them up and around with unmatched skill, sending shock and awe through the hearts of all that see them, you will regret your mirth - briefly, before a flash of steel ends your pitiful existence and you become part of the spectacle

I love rhythmic gymnastics. It's one of the few summer olympics events I try to make sure I DVR, because it's just so poetic and physically impossible, and yet there it is happening right in front of me, no CGI or anything.

I guess the haters gonna hate, but when I see someone do something like this, I don't think of it as a waste of time. I see it as an individual spending hours learning how to build self-discipline, grow an understanding of how to achieve complicated, difficult tasks by breaking them down and attacking the smaller pieces, develop the kind of character it takes to apply onesself toward an envisioned goal and keep at it until it is no longer just a dream but can actually be done...

There's a lot going on there, and all of it means this young woman has a lot more character and drive than most people her age, or any age. Bravo on her. And thanks so much for posting!

I was just thinking how similar her precision and overall skill are to high-level martial artists, and how wonderful it is to see such elegance used to portray joy and inspire awe rather than "you would get your ass kicked".

Rather sad to see that a few have derided her skills instead of enjoying them. I bet people can't make a living with it precisely because society would rather see people get their asses kicked than watch someone share bodily exuberance.

So I'm curious (this is amazing stuff, I find normal gymnastics amazing enough, being clumsy myself): Do gymnastics athletes tend to suffer in later life from their exertions when young, physically? Like, every 50-year-old former gymnast is now bent-double and can't sit on a couch? I've always imagined that being a gymnast led to a lifetime of effortless flexibility and good health, but of course I've never looked into it.

Apart from all of the "does she not have a spine? She must not have a spine" amazement, the little things like being able to catch the ball in the curve of her ankle is pretty phenomenal.

I also can't help but love the contrast of watching this while alternating ice and heat on my lower back as the result of an oh-so-glorious and elegant bending over to clean up cat vomit injury.

Do gymnastics athletes tend to suffer in later life from their exertions when young, physically?

Data point: I did gymnastics and ballet and all manner of dance (plus sports and general flinging myself about heedlessly) from a young age up through college (after which I decided that being drunk on the beach was a better plan) and my joints from the waist down are all kinds of fucking messed up - everything from feet to hips tend to snap crackle & pop at a moment's notice. I can't even imagine the horrors I will face in my 50s and 60s if my 30s are like this.

I was nowhere in the FPP'd girl's class, though. Not even close. Also maybe I'm just genetically predisposed to creakyness.

Flapjax, I thought about volleyball, but that damn net made me change my mind; I wanna see that ball zip straight from one player to another, rather than being lobbed. The image of a girl with the ball held between her ankles just flipping over to rocket that sucker across the court invokes awe and fear.
Multiply the awe and fear when another player catches the ball with her feet.
I'm picturing Greek dodgeball, here, rather than the in-a-circle kind.

Risk of gymnastics on joints.

My husband was a professional ballet dancer for many years and ended up with osteoarthritis. Two hip implants later, one of which had to be repeated 3 times due to complications, he can walk again without a cane. Most of the time.

But boy, could he jump when he was younger.

That said, amazing performance and my husband would be the first one to say so. If you gotta fly, you gotta fly.

mediareport, that performance you've linked is wonderful. That young woman is strong, flexible, precise and must have worked like a pit pony to hone her natural talent to that state.

But I consider that ribbon routine to be closer to dance than sport because there are probably many patterns of ribbon work that would have worked with her movements (unless I'm missing some required sequence of patterns that competitors must use in their routine). The FPP link really blew me away, because in addition to the strength, grace and flexibility she displayed throughout, that woman had to throw and catch the damn ball accurately every single time.

victors,
On a very late night "alternative" tv talk show in the UK I happened to see, the main interview was with a very pretty gymnast turned erotic gymnast stripper.
So she did her stuff (topless) making the sort of moves we are all familiar with from Olympic floor routines -but in a cheerfully lascivious fashion - rubbing herself a bit and making porny faces.

She was then interviewed.
She said that yes, she'd been a competitive gymnast as a kid - but realized she was never going to be top tier blah blah and had eventually come up with this act - and did very well.
When she was asked by the interviewer about her flexibility and how it translates into sex, her answer was (to summarize): Oh god, every boyfriend I've ever had gets ideas about that - and yeah, I'll do what he likes once or twice.
But honestly, the best positions are the ones everyone can do. And I get much more pleasure from the standard ones too. She said - on balance - she preferred standing sex, and also quite liked it backwards.

(I was surprised, but she seemed perfectly sincere & straightforward in her answers, fwiw)

She's a great example of how a lot of practice can make something quite difficult look completely effortless. Like a couple of times, she throws the ball up and catches it offhandedly behind her back with her ankles or something, and because she's doing everything else so fluidly, you don't appreciate that what you just saw would be borderline impossible for any regular person.

And then, finally, your mind is waving you down going "Dude! Did you see that?! That was fucking awesome!"

Very cool.

I guess it's not that surprising considering how personal (shape, size, position, etc.) this all is - I can see where the difference between flexible and crazy insane flexible is a distraction for her, especially since for her, it's just bringing the work home - kinda kills the fun. For sure: there wouldn't be much left of our species if those poses were required (!)
