    The ending footwork with that INSANE speed is phenomenal. Nowdays skaters wave their arms and twist their bodies and feet around at a fifth of that speed and call it something. I call it a mess.

      I love, love, love her footwork. So much speed and accuracy. So much better than the endless, boring footwork we see today. But today it's all about getting those levels!

    If Yuka had had nailed her Lutz in the short program (she popped it into a single), she likely may have been on the podium with the free skate she gave here.

    • @gk891
      @gk891 5 месяцев назад +1

      That's very possible. Her marks were a bit conservative because she skated in the second to last group as opposed to the final one. Her marks could've and probably would've been higher if she had skated later.

    @metsdudenj: It was meant to be a flip, b/c otherwise, as you said, it would have required a combo. She just took off with the wrong edge (something that used to be done constantly under the 6.0 system).

    @SexyLiLLeilaniMya Hmm, I thought the edge was off a little since she did tap into it, I kinda thought it was a flip jump, but if it was a lutz shouldnt have there been a combo with it?

  • @djchiesa3567

    I just watched Surya Bonaly's performance after reading they tied for 1st place. The judges should have awarded them both gold medals and feel there was some bias. And yes you can have to greats perform in the same competition so they should have both won the gold.

    Oh, man, where was that triple lutz in the short program? If she'd made her combination in the short program, she probably would have won a medal. This free skate was terrific, but certainly would have received better marks if she'd skated in the final group and the judges could directly compare her to the top 4 ladies.

      Opposite in fact. Oksana was rushing to keep up with her music, she was sloppy and junior level. Plus only three clean triples. It was very sad to see because her coach did not help her move to the next level.
