    I will never understand why people didn’t think tonya was pretty, she’s so beautiful
    Edit: so I keep getting replies to this comment comparing the girls, Nancy and Tonya. I’m just gonna say, in no way am I opening and endorsing people to put down one girl in order to bring another girl up. Tonya is a beautiful person and so is Nancy, stop belittling one of them😐

    I've seen so many comments from judges and others that Tonya didn't have the artistic ability or grace that other skaters had. Well I disagree. She has so much art and grace to her skating. A little more aggressive in some ways, but always beautiful to watch. Her slight lack of subtlety is overwhelmingly made up for in her real talent, just plain out there raw skill and training, but also beautiful. There is no doubt, that even though her skating technique is slightly different from her competitors, she is far superior. And the whole Nancy Kerrigan thing, really hard to figure that out. Too bad for Nancy, and all sympathies she was attacked. But I have never been completely convinced that Tonya was behind it. Her ex husband was very shady, very greedy. Tonya had worked her whole life toward skating, toward the Olympic games, that meant everything to her. Risk it all for some shady act against a co-skater? I don't think that is where her head was at. I think more likely that is where her ex-husband's head was at.

    It was at this event that Tonya decided she had to have a triple axel in her program. I saw an article that said Tonya saw Midori warming up before the long program skate and watched Midori do, in succession, a single axel, then a double axel and then a triple axel. Tonya turned to her coach and said she can't do that. Her coach said she just did. When Tonya got back to the US she told her coach she has to add a triple axel to her skate.

    • @AMD1114
      @AMD1114 5 лет назад +2

      Didn't Tonya try and fall on the triple Axle at the Competition directly before this one? because in an interview at that competition she says her next competition is NHK.

    • @lsrasr158
      @lsrasr158 5 лет назад +26

      @@AMD1114 - you are correct. Tonya tried a triple axel at the 1990 US Olympic Festival Figure Skating in her free skate and fell on it. In the post skate interview she said her next competition was the NHK in November. I don't believe she was fully committed to the triple axel at the point. This is an excerpt from the article I was referring to in a 2005 Spokane newspaper referring to Tonya as a pioneer of the triple axel.
      "Ito and Harding had the right build - short, strong, with big quadriceps. They also had the right mental makeup.
      “The reason Tonya could do it was, she was so strong. She was so strong as an individual,” said Dody Teachman, who coached Harding when she learned and landed the triple axel. “And in her head, as we all know … she was a take-the-bull-by-the-horns kind of girl. If somebody said, ‘You can’t do that,’ she said, ‘Oh, yes, I can.’
      Ito first landed the jump at the 1988 Aichi Prefecture championship, then did it again at the 1989 world championships. The jump wowed the judges as much as it did the fans. And Ito used the Axel as a psychological weapon.
      The next year, Teachman and Harding were together at the 1990 NHK Trophy in Japan, where Ito also was competing. Ito didn’t do the triple axel in the practices leading to the event, and Harding and Teachman figured they were safe not trying to insert the jump into Harding’s routine.
      The U.S. skater and her coach were at the side of the arena during the warmup before the women’s free skate as Ito skated past and launched a single axel.
      “The (rink) barriers were very high, and her feet crested the barrier. She was easily three or four feet in the air,” Teachman said. “She went around and did a huge double axel. Tonya was standing at the barrier, watching. Midori skates around, does a huge triple axel. Tonya looked at me and said, ‘She can’t do that.’
      “I said, ‘She just did.’ Tonya came home and decided it had to be in her program.”
      And of course Tonya became the 1st American Lady and 2nd woman overall to land a triple axel at the 1991 US figure skating championship in Minneapolis.

      @@AMD1114 Tonya did have 2 great coaches. From what I read, Diane worked with Tonya for 14 years but when Tonya stopped working towards the goals Diane set for her, Diane broke her ties with Tonya and had Dodi take over the coaching reins. So Dodi coached Tonya through her best year, 1991. I don't know about Diane and Dody's relationship today, but I read that Dody apparently still coaches Tonya today and says Tonya is still an excellent skater doing spins and double axels. It is a shame that Tonya lost her focus after her great 1991 year. She never medalled in the 2 olympics she was in and she never landed a triple axel at the olympics.

      Her lowest score was a 5.4 and most were 5.6 and 5.7. She was scored really well considering how many triples she doubled. Remember, this was the ordinal system, so the number doesn't really matter. What matters is where she was placed in relation to the other skaters.
      Again, her scores are in line with how she skated, if not a tad generous.

      don't think so. however, at the 1992 albertville olympics, scott hamilton rated tonya as the 2nd best technical skater in the world behind Midori Ito.

    I miss figure skating. I was very good at one time though I had no coach and learned from watching it on tv. I memorized the moves and practiced over and over. It would have cost over 30000 a year in training.

  • @matthough3590
    @matthough3590 4 года назад +4

    A very good skate overall, but it seemed she either got tired or lost her nerve near the end doubling the sal and singling the axel, neither of which she did when she skated this performance later that season at nationals (with the added triple axel).

  • @lorrainebryan7552

    I have to say back in the day I believed what they reported on the news. Not anymore!!! After watching I, Tonya and finding out the skating (I can't think of the name of it) just didn't want to give her a chance because she didn't have a wholesome family. For crying out loud they made fun of her outfits too!! It makes me rethink everything that happened.

    Harding was a beauty and a powerhouse. What she lacked was that ballerina type gracefulness top skaters had. Kerrigan had that grace but lacked Harding 's powerful moves. This made Kerrigan lose the gold medal and frankly, aside from her grace and beauty, didn't offer anything more to make her the gold standard. Harding could have been given that training to teach her to be more graceful, if anyone had looked past her economic shortfalls. It's sad the potential that was lost.

    I think Tonya showed more grace and artistry when she was younger, and a little thinner. To me her positions look much better here and in most of the 91 programs than in anything after. I agree with someone who posted elsewhere that she peaked in 91. She first landed the triple Axel at the 91 Nationals, then again at the 91 Worlds, and then again in both programs - short and long - of the 91 Skate America. I don't know what happened to cause the big downhill slide from the 91 Skate America to the 92 season, but I'm sorry it happened. After landing 4 triples in three major competitions in a row in 1991, she never again landed her triple axel in a competitive program. She skated a few good competitive programs after that, like the 94 Nationals, but she never reached the heights of 1991 again. Nancy peaked, and simply skated much, much better at the '94 Olympics. Tonya took herself out of medal contention with a bad short program performance, which left her in TENTH place going into the long. Her overall finish was 8th place after a respectable, but not luminary, long program skate. Nancy won the short program, and tied with Oksana in the long. Nancy scored one tenth of 1 point higher than Oksana in the technical scores, and Oksana scored one tenth of 1 point higher than Nancy in the artistic scores. But in the long program, the artistic scores are the scores that break the tie, so Oksana received the gold.

    • @Karamarika
      @Karamarika 11 месяцев назад +1

      Exactly. Tonya could never match what she did when she was actually training well. She just wasn't putting in the work after 1991 and it showed. The extra weight she carried made her skating awkward and clunky. She was definitely better artistically prior to 1993. It's unfortunate. She didn't meet her potential.

    • @genednomyar3383
      @genednomyar3383 11 месяцев назад

      ​@@KaramarikaI agree. I heard her say on an interview, when asked what happened to her in the 4 months leading up to the 92 Olympics, that she guessed she just got lazy. So she herself admitted the problem.
