Nadia a fost cel mai mare boom din istoria gimnasticii. Si nu atat prin faptul ca a facut de ras omputerul de la Montreal, care nu prevazuse decarii ei de glorie, cat pentru alura ei de printesa.

Nimic incrancenat, totul zambet, gratie si o hlamida regala invizibila. Nadia a fost un moment unic in povestea gimnasticii. Cu ea se incheie epoca de vis a gimnasticii.
Tot ce urmeaza sunt mici capodopere tehnice carora le lipseste insa farmecul inegalabil al fetei din Onesti.
