Смотришь других фигуристов и ждёшь прыжка как достижения эпогея ,а у Алексея смотришь и наслаждаешься тем что он делает между прыжками! Браво ! И привет из 2023 года!
Having now watched a few different versions of this short program, I will say that this one is my favorite. Of course, the occasion was much bigger at the Olympics, but here, he was much more emphatic and passionate with the choreography. The footwork sections are absolute genius.
I agree with the other comments, as magnificent as he was in the 2002 Olympics, this version of Winter was even better. Even Dick Buttons, the most critical commentator that ever lived, could not find one flaw.
