@dylanvalente Not correct. Button likes innovation -- and a balance of technique, and artistry based upon technique. For examples watch Michelle Kwan's 1996 Nationals and Worlds exhibition skates to "East of Eden" -- and listen to Button's commentary. And -- especially -- his comments on Kwan's gorgeous 1998 Keri Lotion skate to "Dante's Prayer".

I mean this is just a sloppy mess....why are people actually trying to defend her...HOT MESS!!!!

that was a quad attempt right?

should've won.

That was actually a quad salchow and almost landed. Damn!

@dylanvalente If you listen to Dick's commentary on Stephanie Rosendahl, you'll realize he's quite open...

You can tell her skating style does not please Dick Button. He likes classical, traditional. I don't think his criticism of her jumps is warranted, though. What does he mean they don't go up? They go up enough for her to complete the revolutions and land them!
Had Dick Button ever have turned a triple jump ?????

Dick Button is the first skater in history to land a triple jump in competition - the triple loop in the 1952 Olympics. He also landed the first ever double axel, was the first to do a camel spin, and had several other firsts. So yes, Dick Button has "turned" a triple jump.
