InfoAlina Maratovna Kabaeva is a rhythmic gymnast from Russia. Kabaeva is known for her extreme natural flexibility. She stands at 1.66m (5'4) and weighs 48kg (106lbs). Alina is Russia's most successful rhythmic gymnast to date, and is also one of the most decorated gymnasts in the history of rhythmic gymnastics.

At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, no one doubted her taking the All-Around gold until, on her second performance, the most unexpected thing happened. Alina dropped her hoop and ran to retrieve it outside the competition area. She took home the bronze with the final score of 39.466 (Rope 9.925, Hoop 9.641, Ball 9.950, Ribbon 9.950).
