1980's Videos
Please note that the quality rating is based on 1-5 with 1 being the best and 5 the worst. If there is a zero in a spot for quality or length, then I have not went back and added this, or did not have the information when I put this list together. For some of these I do not have the source listed and some do not have the events contained listed, but most are women's gymnastics. As I re-watch some of these, I will update the list with the missing information. All tapes are in SP unless otherwise indicated.
