The best falls you can recall
I know that falls are by definition not cool and I don't wish them to any skaters. But we got to admit that some falls are actually pretty cool.
Maybe they are funny, maybe they are impressive, maybe they fit the choreography so well that they should be rewarded, maybe the reaction of the skater to said fall gives you life. I am not talking about scary horrible falls like Totmianina/Marinin or Dubé/Davison or Zhang/Zhang of course.
Mine:
Yuzuru has a lot of cool falls
- split-fall https://youtu.be/l4xTmzWHeEw?t=2m22s
- nice leg strength https://youtu.be/OgKctLXjflY?t=3m26s
- in spin, his reaction was cute https://youtu.be/VOM59JQ76wQ?t=4m59s
Valentina's perfectly timed to the music https://youtu.be/STknSRRnlg8?t=3m27s
Bourne/Kraatz oly 2002 end fall (and trying to make us think it was choreographed) https://youtu.be/Rhn8dBLz_4A?t=4m53s
Plushy's fall at oly gala 2002 (i love his reaction to it) https://youtu.be/ORUPuKhjTp8?t=4m45s
of course epic Midori jumping out of the rink https://youtu.be/zc0qxdfKGGw?t=3m13s
the iconic reaction of Ksenia to Fedor's fall https://youtu.be/56D56iIW_Fk?t=4m45s
Patrick Chan has a lot of weird falls. This 11GPF one https://youtu.be/tR3NG7FpkZ8?t=4m59s is actually made so much better by Daisuke and his coach reaction in the K&C https://youtu.be/BWv9IhtsHik?t=19s
The TEB spin fall is pretty special to me because I saw it live https://youtu.be/WxQBI3gcZLc?t=4m39s. Seriously Patrick has the weirdest falls. The 2012WC waxel fall was also pretty funny tbh.
