browning still is a master, to merge Stoyko with Kurt would lessen Kurt. The best, bar none, footwork, first quad, imagination, humor, versatility second to none. He took to the air without warning, while others, you could see their jumps coming from miles away. Gracious, and deserving. what a guy!!!
I miss skaters of that time, who could skate to "big" music and live up to it... when I hear the announcer mention a famous soundtrack or a hefty classical piece as a skater takes position these days, I just cringe and wait to be disappointed.
Kurt was one of the best ever. Loaded with personality and skills!
If only he'd had the triple flip in the SP... he probably wouldn't have botched the double axel at the end of the program and we'd have Kurt Browning 4 time world champion 1994 Olympic Champion. the judges wanted to give it to him, he just couldn't give them the opportunity.
still the greatest skater certainly of his generation, and one of the best ever. he is legendary.
A pleasure to watch - telling a story on ice - the story of the music. Wish there were more skaters like Kurt. Pure joy. Yes, I wish he could be more consistent on the jumps, but his artistry is a thrill and joy to behold. Sigh.
To have achieved having done one of the greatest programs and performances ever, yet this not even medalling at the Olympics, really shows how excellent you are. Browning is. This is skating, this is for the 6.0 system, for the CoP, and even for no system. This program and performance is simply a lesson.

No one can touch Kurt Browning on the ice. Yes, it's unfortunate he didn't medal at these Olympics but he had nothing to prove. He IS the complete package with athleticism and artistry. A legend in figure skating and a national treasure.
Sandra Bezic choreagraphed this as well as Brian Boitano's 1988 Olympic gold medal winning long program. I believe she's done many other Olympic winning programs as well. I enjoy listening to her comment on figure skating performances, she's always got something interesting and insightful to say.
This might be my favorite Browning program of all, & that's saying a LOT. After watching some of the men at the recent Olympics, I felt so unsatisfied, due to the cookie-cutter, format nature brought on by the current scoring. There are flashes of something more here & there, & there's John Weir, who does still seem to have his mind on more than scores, but mostly--blah. Remembering the thrilling imagination & creativity from some years ago, came looking here & reconnected w. Kurt--Wow! Bravo
My mom taped that performance for me, and I watched it endlessly for the following year. What a program. What a comeback. What a skater. Kurt, you're still the best!
Browning was a master performer, but its ashame that he was never able to land jumps consistently during the olympics. =/
If he did, he would've won a medal or two and likely a gold somewhere. His artistry was just amazing, but whether it was his nerves or whatever it was, he couldn't skate clean at the olympics.
If only Canada could find a way to somehow merge Browning's artistry with Stojko's consistent jumping abilities into one person, you would have the ultimate figure skater. =)
One of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of figure skates. I have always loved this program and this skate the more than any other in his amazing career. Kurt has it all here. Technique, artistry, musicality, personality and the best costume, ever. Here's looking at you, Kurt.
yes, he isn't a olympic champion, but he is the Great. And i remember that those time he had bad result in short porgramm, but this FP was the best in the same time. I mean the best with the result.
More than 16 years later, I have yet to see another program constructed so brilliantly. And with the current scoring system in place, it won't happen.
I don't follow figure skating all that much. Just was kind of wondering today in light of the Vancover games coming up. I remember the old system. How does the new system differ?
My favorite Browning skate of all time!! Love this man!!!!
