She was a real true talent and very powerful skater,who was her trainer in the Olympics
and in what club did she train?
-
I wonder why this outfit was controversial - I think it suits her much more than the skirts or dresses she wore in other programs. She has a real sleekness here and it's a great performance, one she seems truly into.

@TheRanity Just as addictive as the short prog music Elvis S skated to in 1992.Its not here on YT.:(
-
@TheHoopify I agree.
-
Debi looked like a champion that night and I think she should have won the SP.
-
Work it girl!!!! Yeah, she chocked in the long, but Debi got em in the short! As far as shorts go, this was a very, very close second only to Midori Ito's. Witt should NOT have been in the top three, I'm sorry.

Some of the judges didn't cre for Katarina's costume, either. Debi's SP unitard was banned from competition for a period of time. The ban was eventually lifted, as Irina Slutskaya of Russia wore a unitard for her 2000 Olympic short program. Katarina's costume from the 1986 Worlds SP in which she exposed her belly button was also banned. Could no longer expose your navel in competition. They're okay for exhibitions. BTW, Debi won the 88 Worlds SP wearing the same unitard, Witt was 2nd.
