Carolina Pascual

Carolina Pascual Gracia[1][a] (born 17 June 1976 in Orihuela, Alicante) is a former Spanish Individual Rhythmic Gymnast.

There was not a club in her town so, her mother drove for around an hour to get Pascual to and from training sessions at the Escuela de Competición in Murcia.

At the awards ceremony, bronze medalist Oksana Skaldina refused to acknowledge the podium results.

An injured Pascual sat out at the 1992 World Championships, but came back for a bronze All-around medal at 1993 European Cup.

As a gymnast she stands out because of her difficult and expressive routines with great back flexibility, and inventive skills.
