Evolution of the uneven bars in women’s gymnastics

The uneven parallel bars event has changed a lot over the years. For one thing, the bars used to be a lot closer together. And obviously the routines have gotten a lot harder.

Some of those moves in the 60s and 70s were sweet though. More grace and less raw power. (thx, doug)
