That layback spin in the middle of the program is absolutely superb!

wow, is this really berkeley iceland?? I grew up skating there for many years. It was always known as the biggest rink anyone had ever seen. RIP berkeley iceland.

This was the same music selection that Ms. Fleming used at 1968 Nationals, Worlds and the one that won her the Gold Medal at the 1968 Winter Olympic Games. What a fantastic program. I love the music variations in this superb program!

Interesting that her 3 world championship wins were basically the same program - same music, some minor changes in content but essentially the same program. I'm not sure you could get by with that today.

@Chutson353 Here's what skaters get by with today: Jump- jump- jump- and jump. Forget the grace. Forget the figures. Fluidity? Nah, throw in a triple. The balletic beauty of figure skating has been all but obliterated. All sport, no art.

The Carruthers used this music at the OLympics
