Who is better Nastia Liukin or Shawn Johnson?

Who do you think is a better gymnast, Nastia Liukin or Shawn Johnson?

Nastia is very flexible and elongates all her moves, but is very lanky and swings her legs all over the place. When she casts to a high stand on the bars her back is all arched and it looks horrible.

Shawn Johnson's gymnastics is very strong and each skill is stuck with perfection. When you watch her do each move, you can feel the trust that she will stick it. When I watch Nastia, I'm very unsure if she's really going to stick the move or fall.

They are both great gymnasts, but I believe Shawn Johnson is overall a stronger gymnast.

Nastia!!! Duh. She might be unreadable but she stick things way more than Shawn. She elegant and has mush more of a repotwar! But Shawn can stick double double's layed out or tuck so props to you to girl!!

They're about the same. You can't compare them because they each have different strong points. Nastia is better at the ballet part of the sport, and Shawn is the tumbler.
