Friday watch party: 1999 Worlds SP

"anti-pole bias"

 

[Kateri]

Wasn't it Rechnio who took an ordinal from Kwan at 1998 Worlds SP where Kwan was clean? I can see why as she skates totally differently from Kwan and I can see a judge preferring that style.

I'm so proud of you for all the progress you're making!

 

[Jeschke]

What was that guy doin'?

"anti-pole bias"

Yeah, I wouldn't be advertising anti-Pole bias....still too soon.

LOVE HER! SO MUCH QUALITY!

I'm a sucker for her cheesy music, with the abrupt ending. And her short, bleached hair! (Btw my own hair was shorter than it ever was at that time, I cut it and colored it red just before traveling to Finland)

Love the close up of Robert Gregorzyk clinging onto the bell, he doesn't dare to watch!

I actually think it was Hubert who took the ordinal away.

I would never confuse Maurizio with Zimmerman so if I was confused Zimmerman with someone else, it wouldn't be him . It was beforehand with a shot Zimmerman in the stands before they show a shot of her Italian teammates.

Yeah okay at around 3:02 then, that was a quick profile shot of John Zimmerman with an older woman. So John and Silvia were apparently dating at that time. They were married in 2003.

Why would you have thought you were seeing things in your original post then? That was clearly Zimmerman. Big deal, they were seeing each other and the camera caught a quick shot of Zimmerman clapping.

That's her teammate Robert Gregorzyk.

Because I was just confused as it was a fast shot and I'm watching on TV while managing a baby. Do you need other information?

First St.James' infirmary of the night.

BTW 5.1 in tech for Rechnio is a travesty

 

[alchemy void]

Amazing combo spin from Gusmeroli

The comment I have been waiting for all afternoon

 

[mjb52]

I completely crashed my computer it was like what the HELL are you doing woman

 

[rfisher]

I wonder if Gusmeroli thinks to herself, huh. I couldn't do that when she's judging now.

 

[SmallFairy]

We MUST do the FS!!!!

#jewelthief4ever

Love her wild, huge axel and the speed steps. But man, yeah, they're never turning in the other direction!

 

[VGThuy]

Gusmeroli's steps were all in one direction but it was entertaining in the Gusmeroli way. Between this and next season, why were her programs so bad in the 2001-2002 season?

Second grey velvet dress of the night.

 

[Finnice]

Gusmeroli was another fave of mine. And gees it is so good to see adult women skating.

I think that may be why she's pretty...lenient...when it comes to URs. I remember one 4CC she was the caller for, it seemed like every man had a level 4 footwork sequence. And I'm saying EVERY man.

Her 2000 FS Legends of the fall was beautiful

One of the all-time great figure skating unsolved mysteries!
