    It was the elegance of this team which set them apart from all others. Nobody could match them in that area. Not the best technical team but the most elegant.

    They were revolutionaries in the category of ice dance. They were my idols. I was an 11 year old skater in 1989, and ended up completing my gold dances, due in large part to this team. They were incredibly inspiring 🌟. I wish they’d been born later, so they’re interpretive genius would’ve gotten the recognition it deserved. They normalized “lifts” in ice dance. As long as you don’t break contact, it’s allowed. They paved the way for a new generation of ice dancers. And the judging system is corrupt, always has been. The judges have never landed a jump or completed a spin, yet they judge others. Classic case of “do what I say, not what I do”. And goodness help you if you were “different” back then, you’d never win.

    Good lord... what were the judges watching?! I could just about understand 5.7 or 5.8 for technical merit, their edges were never quite as clean as they could be free legs sometimes not quite matched etc, but 5.7 for artistic impression...c'mon!!

  • @lynnlobliner3933
    @lynnlobliner3933 3 роки тому +4

    I think I peeled away from watching ice dancing and skating after these two left the scene. It became more bland after that. Now I realize why. I think if the judges were repelled by their dance, it is because hetero dancing (of this sort) has generally been between two non-related people. Adding skates does not change that reality, so probably they couldn't get past the brother-sister thing to the uniqueness of the dance.

  • @jasonyazzie1715
    @jasonyazzie1715 6 років тому +4

    Watch the Canadian television broadcast and listen to the comments from Toller Cranston (CAN) who did not like this routine at all, primarily for the reason that this dance was not a Charleston and I believe he said that this did not resemble a Charleston whatsoever. Not to mention the rule violations and how much simpler their choreography was and how far apart they were skating from each other. Too bad this event was held in Paris because had it been contested almost anywhere else, they would not have been on the podium. Engi & Toth (HUN) deserved the bronze for this event.

      This quadrennium almost worked in their favor completely: 89 Worlds in France (country they represented and where Paul was born), 90 Worlds in Canada (where Isabelle was born and both were raised and once competed for), 91 Worlds in Germany (where they both train, under Martin Skotnicky, a German coach), and 92 Winter Olympics in France. Had they had the right material to skate to in 92, they could have won the Gold. BUt Dean ran out of fresh material, and Klimova & Ponomarenko stepped up their technique and choreography.

    • @Fatima502
      @Fatima502 4 роки тому +5

      You've got your facts wrong Jason. It was the OSP which was meant to be the Charleston, and they were punished in that section, placing only fifth behind the Hungarians. This is the free dance.

      gk891 I hadn't seen their Argentine Tango, but based on your remark, looked up the video. Are you kidding me? That dance warranted a 5.3 or 5.4 at best! (in those days of one mark for CD) Perhaps because the Championships were in Paris and they represent France (although are really Canadian!), that sort of "helped" their placements. Gee, ya think? I still say you & I should have been on the judges panels of these major competitions! Maybe our 2 out of 9 ordinals would have affected the results.

      I recently learned that Isabelle & Paul actually placed 3rd in the compulsories at the 1989 Worlds in spite of the major problems with their Argentine Tango. I feel really bad for Klara Engi and Attila Toth. Had they finished ahead of D&D in the compulsories like they should have, they would have won that bronze medal even with their 4th place in the free dance. That could've potentially changed the path of their career because they started to lose favour with the judges soon afterwards (although to be fair and objective, part of it had to do with their skating as it their progress really began to stall after 1990).

    Isabelle representing "a dream" is like Courtney Love representing reality, sorry. Horrible posture, abysmal skating skills, workmanlike plodding through all the moves, one facial expression. I always wished Dean had choreographed for Klimova/Ponomarenko. But that was never meant to be, unfortunately.

      kirkenes Isabelle had extraordinary expression, imo, and portrayed the roles she was given very well. I get that you don't like her, but that's no reason to be all negative and only negative about her. By the time of the WCC '89, she had just overcome a knee injury that had kept her off ice almost thoughout the season.

    Считаю,что в Альбервиле им и серебро дали зря.
