I miss the gymnastics of the 90s when things were more artistic and dangerous. This is so robotic, cold and boring.

Comebacks are so sad

Love how when she's upside down, way off balance–she never loses her perfect toe-point!

You can totally see that she is so tired and just wasn’t in it anymore, it’s so sad, but she did what she needed and she decided to retire ❤️❤️
@joesmith-jb4ls on September 19, 2018 12:37 am

Yeah, she looked tired, but Shawn on her worst day is better than all the rest. She is my champion

Her focus, and will power was incredible here
@paulmc3457 on June 20, 2020 1:48 am

How could anyone with such a juicy gorgeous ass be able to balance it on a narrow beam, then also do somersaults? Lol, she's beautiful and amazing
@Zamolxes77 on November 27, 2020 2:01 pm

Is this special fat Olympics or something ?

@manofiske3318 on July 17, 2021 1:28 am

Too tentative, self-conscious, robotic and had a defeatist air about it.
@jprp999 on December 30, 2021 11:47 pm

Damn knee injury, robbed us of what could have been a great collegiate contender.
@davidrobertson1060 on February 11, 2022 4:51 am

Well if I'm not mistaken she was pregnant here and had a miscarriage.. she really did well under the circumstances but she wasn't what everyone was used to watching I've always loved watching her she has the sweetest parents…..
@syrilwayne on February 19, 2022 6:41 pm

At 1:18 the beam was like: "where's your rent shawn?"
@randomvintagefilm273 on February 1, 2023 9:27 pm

The extra weight in her legs makes a big difference in balance beam (I know) it affects your balance
