Kim Zmeskal - Balance Beam - 1992 McDonalds American Cup

Gymnasts were just better all around back then

I just realized she is #73, just like Nadia was!!!! 🤯🤯

Adoro el ruido que hace la viga de equilibrio cuando las gimnastas hacen sus ejercicios.

Beautiful routine!

I don’t get why she tied with Shannon here. It has difficulty and they have the same one hop dismount. It should be 9.925 or 9.900 its the Bela Karolyi influence in American Gymnast. He wanted to be the famous coach with kim but the best gymnast at that time was shannon and with another coach. And in the olympics he tried it again with his failed prodigy who did not win a single medal who was named the next nadia which wasnt the case. Bela Karolyi was a businessman and master showman. But one good thing he did was make US gymnastic a show and be notice by the US public. Hence the Cereal girls, the limping gymnast and the Magnificent 7. Its great PR and Marketing. When the seeds was planted. It work!

Gawd, Karolyi was a media whore. What’s the point of the mic? He just liked the sound of his own voice and thought the viewing public felt the same way.

Just better gymnastics back then.

She always looked so unhappy

Its unique to see a gymnast that was considered to be a "power house" type gymnast with such great flexibility, especially in her back. Love her mount.

Not nearly as good as Shannon's and she needs way more extension on her leaps

always like her switch leg switch leg split leap series
