I'm thinking of some, but in the mean time I'm
gonna respond to your post to see if there's a change
in opinion :oP.<br><br>Ling Jie doesn't have a
consistant technique on her Hecht to high bar. Sometimes she
misses the bar and sometimes she just barely holds on.
Her kip to handstand doesn't look very easy, and
that's one of the most basic skills on bars. Her Tkachev
has a strange technique and she catches the bar in a
way that eliminates any type of swing, and it's also
not as big and nice compared to someone like Huang
Mandan and Yang Yun who both have great extension and
flight on their Tkachevs.<br><br>I agree with you for
Elise Ray. Except I just can't get over the fact that
she doesn't punch front out of her 2 1/2 Twist! :oP.
Otherwise, beautiful gymnast, great full in-laidout dismount
on bars, best I've ever seen.<br><br>Liu Xuan is
nice on floor as well.<br><br>Elena Produnova, I don't
love her and I don't hate her either. She's a
respectable gymnast that's constantly pushing the limits. For
someone who has the capability ot pushing the limits,
it's great to see them ACTUALLY do it, rather than
holding back. (*cough* Punch front, Elise, PUNCH
FRONT!!)<br><br>Svetlana Khorkina is great all over. Great work ethics as
well. She's not the most talented, and she doesn't have
the most efficient body for gymnastics, but when you
work hard, you can achieve success. She has multiple
skills named after her on every single event. Always
pleasant to watch on floor, great flexibility and
extension, great skill level. When you think she can't do
it, she proves you wrong.<br><br>Amy Chow, perhaps
too much stalder work. Gets kinda annoying, and on
the low bar at the beginning of her routine, her 2nd
endo coming out of invert full is usually a little bit
off balanced. But once again, great worth ethic and
skill level. Her old bar routine is still worth a
SV10.0 in this new code.<br><br><br>Eric
