Anyone interested in identifying some skaters from small clues so I can refine the skate order for 1991 WC Ladies SP in Dortmund? I do not have enough information/nor videos to place everyone, but maybe I can get the order a bit more correct. Any help would be appreciated, perhaps someone who watched it live can remember something. Any archivists out there?
Here are my findings. Also link to the entire event in the rewatch.
