Favourite uneven bars mounts

Almost all are acrobatic. I can't stand seeing glide kips or jump to hang on the high bar, so boring. I understand why these aren't done due to the risk (Ungureanu's aside, but the second part isn't possible these days) or because a lot of them end in a dead hang which will be deducted for but it would still be awesome to see.



Aleftina Priakhina, 1986 Chuichi cup. This one bears Gurova's name, but is hers originally. Yes it's very similar to her beam mount. It just looks so beautiful, is very difficult AND doesn't have a dead hang.


Olessia Dudnik, 1989 Worlds. This one is the hardest of them all. Just amazing!


Teodora Ungureanu, 1976 Olympics. Not near as difficult but love the creativity behind it. Impossible now of course, but the first part could be incorporated differently.



Celestina Popa, 1988 UB. Overshadowed so much by her teammates, but what a unique and great mount.


Natalia Frolova, 1986 US Vs USSR. Major dead hang which takes away a bit from it for me, but still love it.

There's a lot I can't find, but it seems to veer between boring A mounts and risky D-F mounts with little in between.
