What was that skill called that she did where she went from the high bar to the low bar did that straddle thing and then flipped around and caught the high bar?

This uneven bars final will remain the most iconic. No one knew who would prevail with so many strong competitors on the table.

Yup. Tokyo was a flop compared to this, especially since we all had so much hopes for Tokyo's bars finals. Our expectations just crashed like Nastia at 2012 Olympic trials.

So many strong competitors in this final, The London AA champion Gabby Douglas, the reigning UB world champion Viktoria Komova, the reigning UB Olympic champion He Kexin, The team Captain of the Russian and Chinese team, Aliya Mustafina and Yao Jinnan respectively, and UB Specialists Elizabeth Tweddle, Koko Tsurumi and Elizabeth Seitz!

Other years might be more exciting, with more talent pool filling up the top 8 to be the champion. But to beat London's variety, where all three medal-winning routines are so distinctly different from each other yet absolutely amazing in their own ways? Now THAT isn't going to be topped anytime soon. Correct medal order too, btw.

No way. It pales in comparison. All sorts of errors from not enough warm up because they can't warm up on the spot. Also, the difficulty is nothing like this this year. And I have no idea why the bar judges deduct scores for no reason. Execution was never above 9.0 and they ended up outscoring others only based on difficulty regardless of how they actually look.
