Those slow steps, marching steps as he's supporting her next to the far end of the ice...that looks SO GOOD. Undermarked indeed!!!

I miss ice dancing. It's changed so much now. No compulsory now. Now short and free dance that doesn't resemble much of what ice dancing was. Ice dancing has lost its roots :(

I agree. Today's ice dancing has devolved and is extremely boring.

This couple was very under-scored and under-rated throughout their career.

excalibur1812 they were. A lot ice dancers were throughout the years underrated and couldn't really climb in the standings. Though I really think Blumberg and seibert got screwed in Sarajevo. I think Fox and Dalley also could have deserved 3rd place too. At least 4th. I think klimova and pomenanrenko did deserve silver in 1988 in Calgary but felt they were not as matured yet as the American teams in 1984.

excalibur1812 fox/dalley are still one of my favorites of all time. Timeless ice dancing. Thanks so much for sharing this on KZfaq. I really miss ice dancing and what it was.

pia yes, this whole competition was a travesty. The fix was in from the beginning and the judges strategically judged Judy & Michael so that it came down to a tie-breaker in the free dance with a tenth of a point, giving the bronze to Klimova & Ponamarenko. The hypocrisy was so overwhelming that they penalized Judy & Michael for using a classical piece of Scheherazade, while rewarding T&D skating to Bolero with the gold, while everyone gushed about how they managed to "transcend their sport". Sounds to me like the judges were using 2 different rule books. Judging has always been political and biased against American skaters. I can cite many examples, but I'm sure you know already, since you sound pretty well-informed. Yes, I miss these days of skating. It was so much more genuine and skaters knew how to interpret music. Now, it seems like you could replace the music with any piece because it seems like just background music, anyway. I'm a professional musician, so I know these things. If you go to my channel you will see some videos of me performing flute and oboe.

Для меня-то второе место в оригинальном танце после Торвил /Дин. Третье место , скорее всего, отдал бы Климовой /Пономаренко, хотя в их танце уж слишком много всего намешано.
