Great routine. But a good example of why the Russian tap over the low bar for dismount is a bad idea for most gymnasts.
By comparison, Diana Varinska VIDEO can do it with good form.

Russell Mills – 1964 Pommels
This is the winning routine in the 1964 AAU Nationals (the precursor to the USGF and USA gymnastics). Mills also won the NCAA Championships in 1963 and 1964, coached by Don Tonry and . competing for Yale University. When Mills hit his routines, he was unbeatable in the US and probably by anyone in the world at that time. There was no international competition for specialists during the period. The mount here is a back Moore, caught a bit late by the camera.
