Gala – 1999 World Figure Skating Championships Playlist

 

[labgoat]

Just a note, soon i will be posting 2000, 2001 & 2002 Worlds. I don't have skate orders that go back any earlier than that and earlier years are easily searchable on YouTube. I am thinking of doing Four Continents next, which was first held in 1999. I am going to try to do 4CC in order.

 

[drivingmissdaisy]

I think mrrice attended this event live. Hopefully he can chime in and let us know which programs are worth checking out that we might have missed.

 

[Walt FSHunter]

Thank you, labgoat, for making this thread. You are doing approximately the same job as I do. I have noticed 2 mistakes in this thread. The link for Charlotte CLEMENTS / Gary SHORTLAND's compulsory dance 2 is in fact their original dance. And the link for Barbara Fusar-Poli / Maurizio Margaglio's original dance is their free dance.
As for Four Continents of 1999 I have already made a post in my thread Golden Oldies. You are welcome to use it.

Walt,

Thanks for your corrections and input. I corrected the link for Clements & Shortland's CD #2 to show Tango Romantica. The link for Barbara Fusar-Poli & Marizio Margaglio is for the OD as the link for their FD is the Dracula program where the background in the Kiss & Cry clearly shows 1999 Worlds unless you meant the OD is from a different year.

If we are duplicating each other's work, maybe we should divide and conquer in some form? I started my lists because many of the posts were blocked or made private in your links. Please feel free to use my links as well.

I was able to attend this event while I was on tour. I hadn't seen many of the previous performances due to that fact. My overall impression of the Ladies event both short and long was that Maria Butryskaya was the star of this event. I've gone into detail on several occasions so I won't bore you with that. This was a well attended, exciting event that I will always remember.

Maria's kiss on my cheek is the highlight of my skating adventures....

Here I am again: kudos to you Labgoat for giving me another wonderful evening with all these links.

I had all but forgotten that Xue Shen and Hongbo Zhao were really impressive here (and so young!!!!!!), and it was just a joy to see Elena and Anton, Maria and Alexei and Sarah and Stephane (though not their best skate ever) again. Let me not forget Dorota and Mariusz whose lifts were always just fantastic. Also loving the Ice Dancers....Maria and Gwendall, Angelica (the beautiful Russian lady whom I've always suspected of being a Spanish changeling, and I mean that as a compliment) and Oleg, and of course Shae Lynne and Victor (Victor's skating is superb). I can't help it...seeing Alexei Yagudin in this Lawrence of Arabia programme never fails to move me. Even though I don't like his attitude at the moment to quite a few of my friends. But the skating is really good, and that's more than 20 years ago with no COP. It may not have been Michelle's best skate but I adore the haircut (which has nothing to do with skating, I know) and Maria, first Russian lady to ever win a gold at worlds, was fantastic. Another thank you, Labgoat.

Young Shen & Zhao and Pang & Tong were wonderful. I loved Anissina & Peizerat vs Barbara & Maurizio. It was fun seeing Drobiazko & Vanagas and the developing US teams of Naomi & Peter and Tanith & Ben and of course Shae & Vic.

I loved watching Sarah Hughes grow up and Tim Goebel too. It was hard seeing Yagudin & Elvis struggle, but I knew Evgeny was going to win one day. Maria had transformed herself into a beautiful stylish woman and skater and was on the rise for sometime. I was glad she got to be the first Russian lady to win Worlds, my beloved Michelle was not at her best, but fought hard. Elena & Anton skated one of my favorite programs, the haunting coloratura free skate. Nice to watch Ina & Zimmerman progress, sad to see Handy & Binnebose before his accident. I knew I would enjoy watching this group battle and push each other. Glad to know you enjoyed them too.
