Ekaterina Gordeeva & Sergei Grinkov - 1987 Cincinnati - Pair

[mjcamck]

I remember this like it was yesterday. THIS is the image I'll hold of Sergei & Katia (healthy & smling), not the later sorrow. Let's all be grateful Sergei was here with us at all. I'm glad that Katia found love again with Illia Kullick & they have both daughters to fill their lives with joy. Best Wishes & Peace to All.

They were incredible. Why can't today's pairs even come close to this?

the beginning part where they were dancing I would of fell, I can only do a little jump or extend my leg behind me. Other than that I used start losing balance with everything else, or I land and start going to fast and run into the wall...hehe...

Superior skating - they really were something very special!

Wow they are so young here. To think they were both still teenagers.

I love this couple, is undoubtedly the best of all time.

but I have a question, I hope you can resolve me, what its that the katia takes from the ice, I've seen many skaters do the same when they leave the ice, they get to pick something that my eyes can not distinguish that it is I would like to know what they pick up.

It could be pieces of loose ice. Or, since it is during an exhibition, sometimes flowers are not wrapped up well enough and little pieces of the plant come off.

I'm in love with this skating couple, even thouth Sergei's gone. Such coordination and flow, love it!
