Denise Biellmann (SUI) - 1985 World Challenge of Champions, Ladies Event

Don't know what Peggy Fleming is talking about her choreagraphy when she won the world championship in 1981, was perfectly fine.. and not on the edge as Peggy would say.. at all very femine and goregous !

@Marchjoy1963 Totally agreed. I remember this performance with Denise Biellmann.. Peggy was the classic elegant, technical-perfectionist skater in her day (mid-60's - early 70's); but I've always thought she was overly critical with skating commentary, regardless of who else it was out on the ice. The voiceover could be rather distracting and painful to listen to at times; but Denise appears to not be letting it affect her, fortunately. I always loved her sense of style and grace.

Those marks are crazy low. Should be all 10ths for technical, nobody in this field was even planning to attempt a triple or spins like that. That Peggy Fleming bitch thinks the marks are too high. What a generic old hag who needs to be slapped silly for her stupid insanely biased comments in the booth sometimes. Her friend Dorothy Hamill tries nothing harder than a double flip and stumbles on a double toe and easily beats this. What a joke.

I thought the first piece was Tao of Love.
