Shaposhnikova 1/1 – Chelsey Colman

Finally someone identified the gymnast who did that fantastic Shaposhnikova 1/1 on bars.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

From Vegas Ute:

It turns out the athlete is none other that Chelsey Colman who was a Utah signee but retired and returned to Arizona w/o ever competing for Utah. :(

I don’t know if we would ever of seen that skill in competition but it would have been a rare treat.

BTW: Chelsey has turned into quite the bodybuilder, that is not my cup of tea but there are some competition pictures of her on the the internet and she really has an amazing physique.

Man that is so sad we won’t get to see that in competition, it was AMAZING!

Love that skill. Not fond of the body-builder career – eek.

Eesh! Awesome skill, we’ll just have to wait for someone else to do it.
