Heather Mulkey(USA) Figure Skating 2003 Worlds Short.

[quelita28]

My former coach Miss Gracie trained her for many years in Skateland East of San Antonio. She is a bit of an expensive coach but a very good one, I had to

stop taking classes because of the cost. I recommend people that can afford it to take classes with her,she does push a bit though.

[Arinozian]

holy crap, that was nuts - I had no idea roller skaters were doing moves and takeoffs designed for ice skates , I didn't even think that was possible. That was mind-blowing lol

[kman543210]

I wish she would do a mapes rather than a double toe axsel.

[rusicesk8ingirl]

this is not figure skating..

[AkaneMerodi]

@rusicesk8ingirl It is. It's called roller figure skating or artistic roller skating.

[skategym]

OMG))) She is ABSolutely AMAZING!!! Where is she from!? I've worked with the best skaters in the world but not even close to this girl.

[Ant777uk]

This is not ICE skating. But she's great.

[mudhead24]

she was the best female roller skater on the planet .... several times.. and no one can take that away.. even with some lame comments! she will read those negative comments and laugh as she stares at all her medals, trophies, and awards.

[gretschky]

hey do any of you guys know what shes doing now? I went to high school with her

[whiteskate08]

the coreography is for a 10 year old. It's a shame, because she's good, but that coreography reminds me of a little girl skating....

[mudhead24]

The best USA women's roller content of all time !!!!

[mudhead24]

heather i think its totally unfortunate you quit so early.. you were the only other skater in the world who could beat Tonya Romano ! but i do think its funny you went and beat her several times and then quit !

[sk8rgrl92]

thatz amazing!

on ice when u fall, you slide most of the time.....

(thank goodness!lol)

but how can you learn all those moves on

such a hard non-sliding surface?!?!?!

[Doromir]

Ice is harder than wood

[sk8rgrl92]

Doromir,

I think your right. now that I think about it, i think ice is probably harder than wood, but it still hurts a whole lot less when you fall on ice than on wood.

[mudhead24]

will there ever be another USA WC womens skater like this? today they suck and their triples are a mess.

[tkretts]

she was a very accomplished skater, but what bugged me about her was her triple mapes, toewall, and salcow were all doubles.

[chammons81]

Hello Heather, i recently discovered your videos. In my opinion, your an awwesome skater. I skate out of Ventur, Ca. Although my skating career isn't what it should be, I can stil exicute the majortiy of sophmore elements, which the exception of the inverted. The inverted and double axel is my goal buy the end of this season! Anyhow... you have my vote! TTYL Chris.

[handsomemel]

if u want to be a real good skater u will have to learn the basic again ! im sorry to say that,,,,,,,

[fatskateman]

so 4 time world champ is not a really good skater. What do you want? She is the 1st woman to do a clean 3 flip and 3 lutz and she is the latest American woman to do any clean triples at all. She is the best American Woman roller skater that ever skated I think that should over shaddow a tecnque flaw. Plus its not like she can fix it now being retired and all.

[AshleyTisdaleIzGreat]

OMG,, How can i not roller skate and i can ice skate!!?? Lol i dunno.

Great vid! :D

[rockegrisen]

dont roller skaters have spirals in their program?

[fatskateman]

not in the short, ice requires it but roller does not. Required elements include one foot-work section, an axle jump single, double or triple, one triple toe jump, lutz, flip, mapse(toe-loop on ice) or toe-walley, one 3-5 jump combo, a one position spin and a 3 position spin.

[tellito1]

michelle kwan its better!

[12345671234567899999]

You can not compare rollerskating with figureskating!

[zarabsing]

yeah exactly,

theres no streamlined blade and if you think ice is slippery and even two year olds can spin on ice where as on wheels its difficult. trust me Im better than this girl. I sakte for englnad

[fatskateman]

spinning is not hard. Spinning well is hard on ice or roller. And are you trying to say your better than Heather Mulkey? Thats a tall order; congrats if you are but I'll believe it when I see a video.

[winda20]

ohh dduh is way harder to land on wheels!

[KirstieConnolly]

lies just the same as ice skating the same jumps aswell..x

[skaterchic1]

ice skating is way better and funner im a figure skater i also skate board

[quelita28]

No she doesn't ice skate. Doing the type of jumps she does are extremely difficult to do and are very dangerous. You fall and get injured a lot. The wheels add on to the weight, so when you land your body feels the impact.

[icesk8r96]

WOW!!! That program is crazy! You have so much energy and control. It must be hard to spin on 4 wheels. Your ankles must take a beating. I just wanted to let you know I loved the program though! SK8 GR8!

[908632]

omg..doidn that all on wheels? that has to be so hard! GREAT JOB

[filmsk8r]

It has been exciting to see so many of my world videos posted on YouTube by roller sports lovers... almost as much fun as when I shot them.

[Figureskaterchamp]

I would be scared to try jumps here. I think it's easier to do the jumps on the ice. Does it really hurt to fall?

[bigbri270]

Well, figureskaterchamp, I would think it would be MUCH harder to do jumps in quad roller skates on ice ( than on a nice wood floor ), LOL. Of course it can hurt when you fall ( that's kind of a silly question ). I know it does on ice as well.

[quelita28]

I saw her in San Antonio several months ago. I think she is a really great skater. I wish her the best of luck.

[sororenotis]

God I miss skating but I don't miss those floor burns

[anibeth39]

That is very nice! Though its very challenging to try to do the way she skates on alll of 8 wheels! And the fall.... imagine if one to fall on the hard wood. Does she also try ice skating herself? She should try that too.

[niceguytmpl]

Heather, if you ever read this, it's me graham, remember when we skated together in texas, those were the days, i always knew you'd be the worlds best! love you babe

[lillucylu45]

isnt this the smae songa romanian gymnast did her floor routine to in the 2000 olympics

[1hipster1]

Did she win the prior year?

[bigbri270]

Nice heel camel, broken ankle, inverted.

[vinicius2801]

I loved her spins...
