My Top 20 Favorite Gymnastics Beam Routines

5. Lilia Podkopayeva - 1996 Olympics - Event Finals

I love Lilia on beam. She has the difficulty, but she also sort of dances on balance beam. You don’t see a gymnast really dance on beam these days (the only other gymnast I’ve seen do that is Peng Peng Lee of Canada). I originally was going to use a different routine because the commentators were still creaming their pants over Shannon Miller during Lilia’s routine, but she hit her dismount here so I had to use it.
