Standing Ovations Away from Home

Florent Amodio in his last LP ever at EC 2016 in Bratislava. The whole arena was on their feet for the second half of his program, clapping and cheering so loud that you could at times not hear the music. It was amazing, definitely one of the highlights for me.
 
Something that's harder to find is a program from a non-Russian skater that gets a standing ovation in a Russian event. Maybe Sasha Cohen? Not sure. Perhaps the standing ovation thing isn't something that's common in Russian viewing culture? Perhaps someone can elucidate.

Didnt Jason Brown get one at Rostelecom Cup One year.
 
Plushenko had many standing ovations from his very early age on competitions and on galas.....

for example:

in 1999 NHK Tropy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aGZXEs4dIE It was genial! Look at the crowd! and the commentator "one more time Evgeni, one more time"!

in 2000 Vienna ECH 2000 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhwFm-VOO_0 the Eusport guys were so enthusiastic also

in 2001 WCH Vancouver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQo4mLyGsNE after SP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywkMDHkeOZs after LP

in 2004 WCH Dortmund on gala he skated 3 programs the crowd wanted to see him

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzZCc5nQ8-E Asissai programs. I'm sure if he had just stood on the ice they would screamed for him

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNIENLK-tfM Godfather, Nice ECH 2006 , crazy crowd again

in 2012 ECH, Sheffield https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBJtNXvyWbg the only one evening when the arena was fullfilled

and many more....

Maybe not a full standing ovation but V/M did get a partial standing ovation and great reception for their Latin FD at 2011 Moscow Worlds.
 
Thanks for sharing!
My contribution is the Nice WC LP for Yuzu.
This was his first World Championship, in France, and that year there were strong contenders in France for the podium, Jobert and Amodio. Yuzu didn't have a ton of fans travelling around the world to see him skate yet.
This is a rink-side camera, and you can see how the stands erupt when the music ends.:points:

Yes this is the one that I thought of as well back when Yuzu was a baby... This is the performance that introduced me to the great Mr. Hanyu!
 
Aside from Pyeongchang, I also love the one V/M got after their Carmen FD at 2012 Rostelecom, including one from Tatiana Tarasova.
 
Hanyu at Pyeongchang, though it was expected because of the number of Japanese fans there haha. My friend who went there told me, that they even told him to stand up and cheer for him lol
 
Anissina peizerat 1999 euros and worlds free dances, 1999 euros FD was massive.
Grishuk and platov 1997 euros
Papadackis cizeron 2016 euros and worlds were loud too
The duchesnay in Russia at 1990 euros was impressive. They arrived vilified everywhere yet won the crowd. 1990 worlds fd was loud too.
Dont remember Zhulin 1993
Many from Torvill and Dean. Basically their last four year of competition. Everytime.
2000 worlds doesnt count because at home but they almost broke the building.
 
Aliona and Bruno got one in Milan. On the whole the Italian audience was generous to many skaters. There were quite a few standing ovations, and not only for Italian skaters.

I also recall Kevin van der Perre from Belgium getting one at 2004 Worlds (which definitiely was not in Belgium, but I don't remember where it took place exactly).

err....let's just say russian FS audiences are no Japanese/Spanish/Canadian ones.

Can we not do this? I created this thread to see moments of fan unity and respect. The spirit of your post seems quite the opposite and might lead to needless bickering.
 
I wish I had a clearer copy of this but, this is Maria Butyrskaya's free program from worlds in 1999....I was there and I can tell you that people began to stand after her final double axel. Being in the audience was very exciting and there was a buzz that didn't die down until after Maria got her marks and went back stage. The performance of her life and a huge memory for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCGjYhxGkf4

What about Hanyu at CoR last year, and maybe his short program in Sochi?
 
Wouldnt it been 2008 ? He was sixth ans had a very good LP.

That's possible...I do remember it was his Robin Hood programme and Joan Haanappel (former Dutch figure skater) was still providing the Dutch commentary at Eurosport.
