The real drama of the Romanian gymnasts is the number of good gymnasts that never ever had the chance to shine because the competition for the national team was so strong. In those days we had enough good gymnasts for at least 3 national teams. For most of them was just hard work and little to no reward....

Ungureanu Răducanu
It's because they not only had great talent, they had the greatest, most beloved coach of all time!
Raducan, Rosu, Porgras, Cojocar
Rodrigo Arecheta, You don't have to name a few. All Romanian women's gymnasts were supurb. Every last bit of them. It's too bad they didn't qualify for 2021 Olympics.
The good old days when real artistic gymnastics was rewarded.
Sure Jan
5:09 - Catalina here was like "you all ain't seen nothing yet".
Lol
Catalina Ponor had a Superb choreography for here age (16 year old). Very mature, she is so talented! And N. Daniela Sofroine, she deserved that floor Silver! So consistent!
Love how she drops her jacket.
It was 5:31 :)
I love Ponor. She is graceful, beautiful and has a dark style to her.
And they didn't need make up....😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dark Lady!

The most epic rotation was the final rotation of the 1987 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Rotterdam where Romanians scored three 10s in a row on FX with Voinea, Dobre, and Silivas- now that was epic!
Did you see Vol. 2 of this series? It was indeed epic!!!
@@worldartgym I did after watched your first vid! Thank you!!!
in that rotation they overtook the USSR and practically got the gold
Catalina's floor routine was so beautifully choreographed. Sublime!
This rotation somehow made me smile, especially when oana ban made the crowd cheer and excited. Anyone else?
ne-ati fost singurele raze de lumina in ani grei post-comunisti. Va vom ramane etern datori pentru momentele de bucurie oferite!!! Va iubim!
Cât va iubesc și va respect, scumpele noastre gimnaste. Câtă bucurie ne-ați dăruit! Bunul Dumnezeu să vă binecuvânteze!☀️
Missing this kind of elegance and artistry
Am trăit aceste momente de aur. Este nemaipomenita senzatia când știi ca deja ai aurul chiar înainte sa primești nota. Și mai e ceva minunat sa vezi adversarele din Rusia și America cum își musca buzele de invidie:)))
I smile and I cry watching this ! Bc I am romanian !
Me too loool
aesthetically the step outs on floor are more graceful than a regular stuck landing imo
Definitely the most epic rotation ever and the best team... i love these girls!
Agree. Iconic
Baby Catalina..she is still an amazing gymnast. One of the icon
Ejecuciones maestras! Esto sí era gimnasia artística, no los robots musculosos que actualmente promueven.
Tienes razón, ¡Biles supera los límites!
Rumania, extraordinaria !
Congratulations to Romania team for the gold medals at the 2020 Europeans
And why did not came to Tokio? Missing them not running but flyiing over there!
@@claudiacontrerasgutierrez7724 I think iordoche was injured and they didn't have enough people to qualify a team sadly
Hope to see the Romanians come back strong in 2024 !! Hope to see Ana Barbosu in the team
No sólo son las Rumanas una de las Grandes Escuelas de gimnasia olimpica, son la Ley en esa disciplina..
Me da nostaligia que Romania ya no tenga fuerza en las actuales competencias olimpicas
@@nelsonbari3609 se extraña ver a Rumania en los juegos Olímpicos. Ojala que vuelvan en 2024
Catalina ponor..belleza.. elegancia y talentosa
Great video!! Catalina Ponor has become one of my favorite gymnasts - great staying power & she just seems to be enjoying the heck out of performing!!
They make me proud of being Romanian 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Thank you girls for making your country proud !
I love Oana Bans floor, it’s such a shame she didn’t get a chance to do it in event finals.
She deserved gold for those rotations for sure
Danza, expresión artística, ritmo y acrobacias. 👏💕 Cuánto ha cambiado el deporte desde entonces, hoy día pura acrobacia y agitar los brazos
Eso es la escuela rumana. Se la extraña
Im an American and i think Romania did an excellent job in their performance.
Au trecut douazeci de ani și le privesc și acum cu drag, cu emoție și lacrimi de bucurie! Ce generații de copii talentați si dedicați. Câtă muncă , sacrificii și suferinta ascund acele momente de bucurie.Dar a meritat! ❤
1987 floor rotation to me was the most epic of the Romanian team at the world's.
Romanians gimnastycs allways the GOAT
Sofronie, Oana Ban and Catalina Ponor. What a fantastic sequence. From great, greater, greatest. Of course Oana' s performance here has sort of went into the Hall of Fame . Bravo Romania!
Im proud im romanian.our Girls was the best in entire world and they are a legend in gimnastic start whit Nadia Comăneci .Bravo România .
Cu ce emotii am revazut aceste momente! Ce mult mi-as dori sa putem retrai aceste bucurii! Hai Romania!!!❤
Emoționant!!!
My favourite gymnastics team of all time! Loved this Olympics. Catalina & Oana really stood out, as did Danielle, on the floor.
modern gymnasts are like robots! graceless robots
Respect și stima pt munca acestor fete! Considerație pt BItang și BEllu! Legende! 💖🥇🏆
….Parca antrenorul Catalinei Ponor era Matei Stanei, el a descoperit o din cate stiu de la tv
Bravooo ,iubitele noastre gimnaste,mândria României!!!! Au trecut 20 de ani dar continuați să fiți mândria României alaturi de celelalte gimnaste dinaintea voastră și de după voi.Bravoo fete de aur!!
That looking down pose of Oana Ban at the beginning of her routine is such a moment. :D
too bad about that second tumbling pass. She could have won an AA medal had she not gotten hurt then
What a team!!!!!!! Proud of these kids , back in that time !
Without a doubt, at that moment, Catalina was the best in the world, and honestly at peak, for what she did, not even Andrea Raducan would have beat her score Thank you Catalina
Супер команда! Девочки просто чудо, одна лучше другой, всё чисто, красиво, очень сложные упражнения! Браво! ❤
Oana Ban was insane 😱😱😱
I think this is definitely the STRONGEST closing rotation by a team in the last 6-8 Olympics. I think China did a great job in Beijing 2008 but they had a few wobbles that cost them, but their lead was big enough to keep them very safe. Romania went all out and NAILED it.
Russia 2021 is a highlight too.
Just beautiful..
Sometimes.... beauty and perfection of movements. Romania gave the exact time in the gym! Proud of my compatriots! We love them forever!🥰💝🌹🌹🌹🥳🥳🥳
Maybe the beam rotation from this squad can be the best rotation ever, but no way this FXs can be better than Romania’s floor in 1987.
Agree
Yeah for me this is a really great rotation, with good difficulty and hit routines, which built exhilarating energy throughout until the announcement of their win. But each routine isn't a full masterpiece, a mix of high difficulty, high quality execution, jaw dropping choreography, intense performance.
Belu has the magic, Romania’s got the gold!
@D Leo really?
Belu is a demon spawn monster who should be in prison for abusing so many athletes.
….Or Matei Stanei coach Catalina Ponor?
Only the Russians can compete eye to eye with the fabulous Romanians in FX routine, IMO
I miss Romania
I hope we can be that good again one day ❤️
Was indeed a banner year. Kind of the epitome and storyboard of the teams that were (Romanians)and the teams that were going to be(USA). Perhaps Romanians best overall team ever.
So proud to have these girls be our champs❤
El equipo de Rumanía siempre son extraordinaria, sin quitarle merito a otras Naciones, todas son maravillosas !
When your third strongest athlete on the apparatus wins the Olympic silver medal you know you're in a good position
The end of an era.
beautiful all three performances, enjoyed every bit of it. Well done Romania. You deserve a medal. Well done to the girls. Best team as described by the spokesperson.
Not only the gymnasts were focused, the audiences were also ON FIRE! Clapping along the routines and big applause at the end of each of them. A very exciting team final ! By the way, the triple spin step out of Sofronie was so elegantly done. And Catalina 's performance felt like a big finale to this spectacular team competition.
We were indeed a great crowd (I was there)! It was an electric moment, even xx years ago I remember it vividly! 😆
@@worldartgym I really do appreciate the passion of the audience towards the athletes! It does flavour the whole competition to a whole new level.
A well-deserved champion. Rejoice to Romanian team.
Romania is to gimnastics what Brazil is to football. But we are doing now less and less gimnastics. It's very hard
Bravo Romanians. I am a Romanian and a US Citizen and I love NADIA COMANECI… and all the Romanian gymnasts. However, my love is Simone Biles. She never disappoints. I’m in love with her. Bravo!
Simone Biles is not a gymnast, she is an acrobatic. She was lucky because she took medicine for ADHD.
@@elenabibescu1848Do you really believe she has ADHD? It's called TUE and they needed an excuse for doping "legally" and they found it in ADHD.
Ce vremuri frumoase,ce fete exceptionale,ce exercitii superbe erau si f.dificile,ne e dor de acele momete dar din pacate nu se vor repeta!atunci traiam cu emotie fiecare evolutie,azi ne uitam detasati cum castiga alte natiuni...ce pacat!
I would LOVE to see more of these. They’re all so “epic” in their own ways😍
They served well the country ,so emotional .
Mda...Văd și revăd cu drag și respect...
Saudades desse evento. Pura força das atletas. Lindas ,blessed
It's also amazing how Spanish music suits this and other sports..
Because Spanish music is awesome!!!
What is the name of the music in the end?

It's amazingly Romanian Artistic Gymnastics performance floor exercise routine.
This is artistic gymnastics, not the Soleil circus we have today. USA COULDN'T STAND TO BE AFTER ROMANIA ON PODIUMS
Such a pity she was injured, would love to have seen Oana Ban in the mix for AA finals. :-(
@Cendrillon Daniela I understand what you mean :-( I thought she qualified 3rd into the finals for AA? So surely she would have been a contender for the medals though. But to be honest I don't remember what she qualified going through to finals in 2003 worlds.
The height in the tumbles! 😳👏👏
Superb... Elegant.. Perfect~~~~~~ Iti dau lacrimile de mandrie si bucurie pt munca acestor copiii! BRAVOOO
I've heard it said elsewhere that Catalina always has the whole arena with her. She's a brilliant gymnast.
Am plâns de emoție ! Va iubesc si va mulțumesc !❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great quality video! Thank you!
Wow that brought back memories of watching the summer Olympics my parents old tv with the crappie bunny ear antena 🤯👏👏
ROMÂNIA!
I miss the controlled lunge backwards it really peppered the routines with elegance imo. But I understand why it was taken out.
"Look into my eyes, you'll see"... killer lasers! (7:21) 🤣🤣🤣
😅😅lol
Romania will return! They have too much pride to stay gone foot long!
Como dice Paloma del Río, Catalina Ponor fue lo último que quedó de esos grandiosos equipos rumanos. Oana Ban, maravillosa también, lástima que no pudo estar en las finales individuales a causa de su lesión.
Estoy de acuerdo cien por cien!
@Cendrillon Daniela I’ll check it out! I attended those worlds in Anaheim but it doesn’t immediately come to mind. Thank you!!!
Las caras de las estadounidenses son todo un poema, como diciendo no podemos con estás!! Ojalá que la nueva generación de gimnastas rumana que se asoma logre recuperar esta grandeza. Ojalá se le devuelva el oro a Raducan,
Goosebumps
Best of the best
Qué Impresionante el equipo de RUMANIA.. Éso es el fruto del trabajo de BELA KAROLI Y esposa Con la gran NADIA COMANECCI..ANGUREANU..y EBERLE..las chicas Campeonas en la década del 70, 👍🇦🇷✌️
Mda...ne ati luat totul scarbelor👽
Bravo Romania!!!! Amazing skills and efforts!
I love the crowd cheering for her ! This was amazing
How can anyone dislike this?
I ask myself that every video 😂😇🤓
Russians.
@@KeillaSellay and americans also...they couldnt stand it
Ponor the queen
I love this channel so much
Thank you so much!!!
This is a GREAT floor rotation, but nothing beats the 89 Soviet one for me, their choreography and performance quality was on a completely different level...
Have you seen Volume 1? That was my kickoff to this fun series!!! (Fun because I have fun researching and editing worthy rotations!)
@@worldartgym I have, and I definitely enjoyed it ! Please continue this serie of epic rotations, they're really cool...
@@cyrielle_ thank you! I will! 😁
You can say what ever you want but Romanians were and will be the best gymnasts ever. Not even the big current stars have half of the Romanian combination of beauty, grace and strength, it's just such delightful to see their performance. And the real GOAT is Nadia Comaneci!!!
Love coach Maria love from Illinois. L

As I watch this piece of art from the Romanians I cannot take away from my mind that it was built over child abuse. It is just so so sad that these kids were suffering so much. I do hope that Romania can regain its pride.
It is NOT child abuse..it is working hard for your dream...but nowdays people cant see past their laziness, envy...and lack of pride and ambition.
