Pionieri assoluti. Per anni,dopo di loro il pattinaggio piombo' in una drammatica stasi. Questa modernità fu poi ripresa da Alliona Savchenco / Solkowitz.grazie al loro futuristico coach. Ora,la speranza del cambiamento la vedo in Green & Parson

@@Lareinedesfritures ,я нигде не вижу

Isabelle Duchesnay was very sick, sort of flu plus an ankle injury. But I think even if they had been at the top they won't have won... K/P were just above everyone.

So I've been waiting for over 30 years, but I think they were so exceptional and that remains a once in a lifetime experience.

Но лучше всех танец чилийских бедняков исполняли сами Торвилл и Дин в 1989/90 году на ЧМ среди профи. Изабель и Поль бледная их копия в том танце. А золотая медаль французов в Мюнхене годом ранее породило у них надежду на золото домашней Олимпиады. Но к чести Криса про Марину и Сергея он тогда сказал:"они очень хорошие чемпионы". А Бернстайн с его музыкой к фильму это не для всех. Поэтому и Моисеева и Миненков с этой музыкой проиграли чемпионат в Оттаве в 1978 году. Там еще и падение Андрея в финале все помнят. А брата с сестрой просто тянули за уши на золото.

@@user-kf6zg1pq3u Вестсайдская история Моисеевой и Миненкова-это Абсолютный Шедевр,который до сих пор вызывает восторг! Они опередили своё время! И тот же Дин говорил р том,что больше всего именно благодаря этой выдающейся паре танцы на льду обязаны своему развитию в большей степени!

Сейчас везде побеждают их ученики!

@@XXX-ep4pq спасибо за информацию. Я не знала об этом, как то в последние годы потеряла интерес к этому некогда самому любимому виду спорта. Рада за них!

They were under a tremendous amount of pressure. They are remembered for their intense themes also.

Just sharing my unasked for opinion...They were decent skaters but this program especially is so filled with "Torvill and Dean" moves that T&D were using on their professional circuit and had used in earlier competition programs that it was not only obvious Christopher Dean had choreographed it but it was also boring moves wise. Their speed is impressive and their lines are pretty but thats about it.

I agree, if “avant-garde” means “ordinary.”

так и есть. это танцы на льду!

Agreed. Unfortunately, I see it becoming a trend; it's not uncommon for skaters (least of all, ice dancers) to take less artistic risks in an Olympic year. We've seen it happen again and again (so much that I've made peace with myself that we'll see dated and uninspiring music in Beijing 2022, especially from teams not known for their original choices to begin with).

@@Ian.D. I agree that many try something more conventional in the Olympic year, but I honestly don’t really blame any of the dancers or think it’s necessarily bad. I mean the Olympics are the biggest event and the skaters have time to try things out in the years before. The Olympics aren’t the place to try something out it’s the place where you use what you have learned and trained, perfect it and at the Olympics dance it flawlessly. Why would you do something new in an Olympic year which could resonate bad with the judges or doesn’t work perfectly?

@@paulstarstarpaul5700 Oh, I agree! I think I would be cautious too if I were competing. As a mere spectator, though, I would appreciate some innovation, not necessarily in an Olympic year. But I'm in the minority anyway because I find 9 programs out of 10 redundant and uninteresting. I watch figure skating despite the music, not because of it.

@@Ian.D. I can understand your opinion even though I don’t have the same problem. I don’t know but maybe ice dancing doesn’t really seem to change from an innovative standpoint because it inherently is very much about classical dancing similar to the „real“ dancing on the parquet floor. Something I personally really enjoy, because it makes it really perfectionist when it comes to edges and expression when you compare it to pairs and singles where especially in singles jumps seem to become the single most important factor with expression and measure loosing more and more importance and only being a mere side note (at least it feels like that sometimes). However even though these advantages give ice dance it’s uniqueness it also might keep pairs and trainers from trying new things and using more unconventional styles of music or steps. Also the very strict regulations restricts the skaters in some cases. Although I agree that there could be more themes used than the „love story“ theme is still by far the most often used theme and it really wears off even though it seems to be well received by the judges. That might be why it doesn’t change that much at least from a choreographical standpoint, (because technique really evolved in the last decades even though I honestly don’t see the improvements anymore so I have to trust trainers and friends on this part)

@@paulstarstarpaul5700 Agreed. Dance is the hardest discipline where you can detect the technical advancements but even an ignorant fan like me can tell the difference between a 2020 routine and a 6.0 one (or a very early ISJ, say 2006). The evolution both in terms of technique and artistry is breathtaking, it almost looks like a different sport.

Нет владения коньком у Изабель, и Вы можете хоть объяснить, что они изобразил?

C'est nul! Merci au juge canadien qui ne leur a donné pas la première place! Ce n'est pas une danse! Leur place devrait être hors podium.

Amazing, fantastično, nikad nešto bolje nisam vidjela. A rusi su dosadni sa svojim prenaglašenim kretnjama.

Деревянная Изабель, не владеющая коньком,и скольжением..... О Да-это «шедевр »!!!!!!!

Да где ты тут увидел элегантность? Не были они никогда и не остались unique.

Очень неуклюже катались именно в этот вечер. Второе место просто подарили.

А они выбрали линию брата и сестры(кем они и являются) - тоже динамичную и трагичную.

У меня такое же восприятие

Bestmisnova had far more technique and passion. That’s an I sult

The three couples in Albertville on the podium were very good but they choose different styles of music and then choregraphy.The russians were more classical and the costums were beautiful and brought a romantic touch.The style of the french was more modern but they brought innovation in their skating. I continue in french.J'ai vu un reportage où les couples russes disaient que les Duchesnay les avaient obligés à se surpasser car ils avaient été de bons partineurs et redoutables adversaires!!! Pour moi ils ont apporté beaucoup au patinage ,de la modernité et un coup innovant.Marina Anissina et Gwendal Peyzerrat ont également apporté quelque chose de nouveau: ils patinaient merveilleusement;interprétaient merveilleusement avec de beaux portés.

@@pascalepinault2131 no doubt, artistically they challenged the Russians, ils assuraient trop. But technically, Isabel especially, they were weak, and which was none more evident than in Albertville. As a competitive routine - not as a piece of choreography - it was inferior to both the Russian pairs. As much as I love the Duchesnays artistically.

@@tally1604 Artistically this wasn't even that great. It was their safest and least innovative free dance artistically ever.

Usova & Zhulin were often underrated tbh

??? Sie haben ja auch Silber gewonnen.

@@rekr3316 ja richtig danke. ich habe das mit calgary 88 verwechselt wo sie im eistanzen 8. wurden..

What a scandal? There was a heavy hierarchy ( russians the first since a long time) in this sport with the juges who were found of classical style of dance and the reason why the couple choose the style to dance to have chance to win and not for the pleasure.Modern style was not appreciate even there was difficulties in their program.The Duchesnay never won the gold even they added innovation in their programms.They never claim anything about this. The rools have changed and the difficuties have degrees now and the dancers loose a little bit expression.It's very difficult to juge this sport to compare with athletism!!!

@@pascalepinault2131 Except the hierarchy had a bit of a wrench thrown in it at 1991 worlds where the top three shuffled around throughout the event with D&D eventually winning. Order was probably restored a bit at the 1992 Euros, but D&D weren't there so it was still a bit of a mystery how they'd all stack up at the OGs. My problem with D&D here is that the programs were ordinary. Especially in the original dance where K&P and U&Z had different takes on the polka, avoiding most of the cliche polka-isms while still being very much polkas. Then D&D had the lonely goatherd. WTF? Chris Dean probably should've given Isabelle and Paul their money back for coming up with such stinkers, but he chose to start cheating on Isabelle with Jill Trenary instead.

@@pascalepinault2131 Quale scandalo. Questa coppia,soffri moltissimo,per la loro diversita' Ancora non dimentico l' Orribile rock & Roll di Pasha,che con quel programma stantio vinse un Campionato del Mondo. I fratelli,sono intoccabili.

Oh my I thought he had an affair while married to ternary. Enough of Dean who I lost a lot of respect this was rather rough perfunctory and not a masterpiece All the Russians were better. I just realize a lot of applause because this Eason France

​@@timothyhh c'est grâce au talent de chorégraphe de Christopher Dean que les Duchesnay ont gagné l'or à Munich !!! Pour ce qui est de leur vie privée, j'ai lu que c'était Isabelle qui avait demandé le divorce, car elle était jalouse de la relation amicale de Jayne et Chris, il a trouvé une autre femme, qui a accepté son amitié avec Jayne, et et ce 16 ans (et 2 enfants)durant ...Dean créait les chorégraphies, après, c'était aux Duchesnay d'y mettre leurs cœurs et leurs âmes, à alberville, Paul et Isabelle semblaient ne pas être bien dans leurs patins (Isabelle avait un rhume, et ils avaient eu des soucis de famille l'année d'avant)mais ces jeux olympiques étaient en France, la patrie qui avait accepté les Duchesnay comme patineurs, ils auraient dû se laisser porter par le public, acquis à leur cause,sourire et se faire plaisir, 4 minutes durant !! Ils ont raté le coche, dommage...

Они брат и сестра. У кого в семье есть сын и дочь, те поймут, это вечная борьба и любовь одновременно:)

Maia Usova,una grande pattinatrice.

Il y a que les russes pour réagir comme ça c'est incroyable de dénigrer le couple français si ils sont 2 eme c'est mérité bravo à nos français 🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵⛸️🥇🏆🏆🇲🇫🇲🇫🇲🇫🇲🇫👍💪

C'est comme quand l ancien juge russe à critiquer notre couple français Gabriela et Guillaume juste avant les jeux olympiques 2022 c'est pas très honnête tout ça mais bon ça n'a pas marché ils ont gagné 🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵⛸️🥇🏆🔥🔥🔥🔥

@@lauremaammeri4244 может потому что русские разбираются лучше?) Если Мбаппе играет лучше русских в футбол, это русские признают)

Танец мне не понравился.Майя Усова и Александр Жулин в 100 крат лучше катались.

She was sick during the 92 Winter Olympics. She's such a fighter.

Не дали первое

oh, really ? these two horses made of wood?

Maybe a gold coin the type with cheap chocolate in the middle. Go look at KO art and skating mastery

This is ice dance, not pairs.

I think Paul was a wonderfully passionate skater, but I am pretty sure Isabelle and her rounded shoulders were made of resin. Today, I think pretty much everyone in the skating community would agree that this performance had no business finishing on the podium.

😂😂 a horse !!!😂😂😂

They were very lucky to win silver. D&D had strong perononalties and taste for innovation enforced by collaboration with Dean. But they lack technical excellence generally. This performance wasn't even the best as it could be if they train it better all the season. Unfortunately, she was injured before OI and then she caught cold.

Yes they were innovative but technically they were actually weak and was nowhere near the RussianS here. To be fairly honest silver medal here was a gift for them.

They were VERY lucky make it to the podium here. The Western-bloc judges REALLY held them up. If they didn’t have that extra push, they would have placed below Usova/Zhulin for sure and, possibly, below Grishuk/Platov.

@@nondescriptnyc Please check the way the judges voted . There was no " bloc voting " during that competition

@@user-lbrd Let me get this right: You simply assert I am wrong and prompt me to do my research while presenting absolutely no evidence against what I said-and I am supposed to just take your word for it. Reminds me so much of those anti-vaxers and anti-maskers that simply tell me I am wrong and I need to do my “research.” Oh, well…
